Before Liverpool conquered all of Europe they first endured the taste of defeat with silverware on the line, with Borussia Dortmund dishing out the first setback in 1966.

Hampden Park was the location and a European trophy, the first in Liverpool’s history, was the objective as Bill Shankly and his Reds made the trip to Glasgow. Borussia Dortmund were the opponents, the European Cup Winners’ Cup the competition for Liverpool on an evening where history could be made with a league and cup double. Five days prior to the European clash, the league title was clinched with a 2-1 win over Chelsea, the seventh added to the trophy cabinet, meaning Shankly’s men were riding high on confidence.

In the preceding September, Borussia’s vice-president had conceded that the Reds were the team he feared most in the competition, but the Germans themselves were no walkovers.

They boasted five German internationals and had dispatched reigning champions West Ham in the semi-final, whereas Liverpool’s passage into the final two saw Celtic toppled over two legs in what was a dramatic and raucous 2-1 win on aggregate. Torrential rain met them on the morning of the match on May 5, 1966, but it failed to deter 20,000 Reds from descending on Scottish soil, of whom significantly outnumbered the opposition. The conditions, amid of myriad of other factors including Celtic’s absence, however, saw the 130,000-capacity stadium restricted to a shadow over 41,000. After missing out on their first-ever European final in what was their debut campaign on the continent the year prior due to a host of contentious decisions from the referee against Inter, the encounter signalled yet another indisputable step towards Shankly’s vision of building “Liverpool into a bastion of invincibility.” It would again end in disappointment, however.
