News'It can't be better' – Sander Westerveld reflects on LFC Legends match

The Reds came out on top 2-0 against Chelsea Legends in the annual charity fixture, presented by official partner AXA and in association with Forever Reds, thanks to two goals from Peter Crouch in the second half.

Westerveld featured in net as one of three goalkeepers for Sir Kenny Dalglish's side in L4, alongside Jerzy Dudek and David James, in front of a near 60,000 crowd.

The No.1 pulled off an impressive reflex save off Robert Huth's powerful header that ensured a clean sheet for himself and his fellow stoppers.

"Almost a perfect day, a clean sheet!" he told Liverpoolfc.com post-match. "I don't know how I did it! It was the reflexes, I didn't know I had it in me!

"I was disappointed with the first one [save] I had, I fumbled a little bit and had to do it twice. But happy with that save, happy to help the team. A good win, a sold-out crowd again, so much money for the foundation. It can't be better."

On the impact the charity match will have for LFC Foundation, he added: "Like I said, it's a perfect day. For us as players, we miss those games.

"We don't miss pre-season in the holidays or training camps, but a full stadium with this pitch, these people, giving back, helping the foundation to raise money, I've been privileged to be at the Anfield community centre, I've seen what they do with the money and it's unbelievable. So, really proud that I can do this for hopefully a long time."
