Before Jerzy Dudek enthralled all with his antics in the 2005 Champions League final shootout, there existed a certain Bruce Grobbelaar. Playing against AS Roma in their home stadium, Liverpool had their task cut out in the European Cup final in 1994.
Joe Fagan, in his first year in charge, was aiming for a treble, having won the league and League Cup already that year. After an evenly-contested match which ended 1-1, penalties were going to be the deciding factor.
Liverpool did not have a particularly good history in shootouts while the Italian side welcomed it. Things took a turn for the worse as Steve Nicol's spot-kick sailed over the bar. Agostino Di Bartolomei scored before Phil Neal broke the duck for the Reds.
As Roma's next penalty-taker Bruno Conti walked to the spot, Liverpool keeper Grobbelaar started wobbling his legs in a bizarre manner, a maneuver which has now become the stuff of legends. The distraction worked as Conti missed and so did Francesco Graziani a few minutes later, allowing Liverpool to win their 4th European trophy in just seven years.

Dudek's antics in the 2005 Champions League final were inspired from Grobbelaar and every Liverpool fan would love to revisit that moment in 1984 again.
