Liverpool Legends Win Charity Match Against Chelsea

A charity match between Liverpool Legends and Chelsea Legends took place at Anfield, featuring notable players like Mikel John Obi, Celestine Babayaro, and Peter Crouch, who scored twice to secure a 2-0 win for Liverpool. The event commemorated Chelsea's successful 2004-05 season and supported various foundations, including the LFC Foundation and Chelsea FC Foundation. The match also marked a historic moment with Natasha Dowie and Katie Chapman being the first female players to participate in the annual legends game. Despite the friendly nature, the game saw tensions rise when Chelsea's Dennis Wise clashed with Liverpool's Jay Spearing. The fixture was managed by Sir Kenny Dalglish for Liverpool and Roberto Di Matteo for Chelsea, with all proceeds going to charity. The rivalry between these clubs has a rich history, particularly in the mid-2000s, adding a nostalgic element to the event.
