I think my first home match was LFC 2-1 Malmo - Oct 67. Yeats and Hunt scored. Then they bounced 1860 Munich in the next round and lost out to Ferencváros in the 3rd Round, thanks to the elegant Flórián Albert, who was European Footballer of the Year. (A terrific player.)
It was about the same time as I saw LFC beat the Manks 2-1 at Old Trafford - my first away match. Tommy Lawrence made a terrific save from Charlton, which was a key moment.
I've hardly missed a home European match since then, and managed to get to three European finals… No more penalty shoot outs, thanks - the old ticker can't take it.
