Legends win

Last updated : 09 October 2006 By Al Campbell
Ian Rush, Gary McAllister and Peter Beardsley all started the game for the Legends while Bruce Grobbelaar entered the fray after 15 minutes when Andy Goram picked up an injury. John Barnes was the last Red to feature, coming on for the final ten minutes.

Gary McAllister set Ian Rush up for the opening goal when he delivered a wicked free-kick into the penalty area. Rush showed he's lost none of that predatory instinct when he reacted quickest and met the cross to tap home past Mark Bosnich.

The two Reds combined in the same way in the second half. Rush reacted first to a Gary Mac free kick, only to see his header hit the post, roll across the goal-line and hit the other post before being cleared to safety.

Chris Waddle scored the Legends' other goal.
