Six goals were blocked out, five goals were scored, two red cards, seven yellow cards, and a team was tasked with nine men and leaving plenty of gaps in behind, with six men on the field and leaving plenty of holes open. It was an end to an epic for the neutrals, and it should rank as one of the most bonkers games in the English top flight.

Djibril Cisse, a former Liverpool striker, has speculated at moving out of retirement to reach a goals record.
