Murphy hooked in a dramatic late winner (again to make it 1-0) when Liverpool visited their fierce rivals a season later \u2013 and repeated the trick a third time (you guessed it, 1-0), on this occasion from the penalty spot, near the end of 2003-04.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of the lads were saying to me, \u2018What\u2019s going on here, how have you done it again?\u2019\u201d he later recalled. \u201cAnd I was just like, \u2018I don\u2019t know, I really don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on, this is weird!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

By then, Murphy was nearing the 250-appearance mark at the club and had added a second League Cup medal to a collection that also included UEFA Super Cup success.<\/p>\n

Following the 2004 change in the dugout that saw Rafael Benitez<\/strong> replace Houllier, though, his time with the Reds came to a perhaps premature conclusion as he moved to Charlton Athletic.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
