Watch: Zidan and Koller strike as Dortmund legends rally past Liverpool at Anfield

Anfield turned back the clock on Thursday afternoon as legends of Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund clashed in a charity exhibition, producing a spirited comeback capped by second-half goals from Mohamed Zidan and Jan Koller.

Liverpool’s old guard seized the early initiative, with Thiago Alcântara and Jay Spearing finding the net to give the hosts a comfortable advantage. The Reds’ familiar pressing tempo and vocal crowd briefly threatened to turn the friendly into a rout.

Yet Dortmund’s veterans responded after the interval. Egyptian fan-favorite Zidan halved the deficit with a composed finish, energizing the traveling support. Moments later, Czech striker Koller—towering as ever—headed home an equalizer that set up a grandstand finale.

Although the match carried no competitive stakes, the late flurry ensured the German legends departed Merseyside with pride restored, while the event raised significant funds for local charities on both sides of the North Sea.
