Liverpool FC: On this day
On this day in 1995, Robbie Fowler scored a hat-trick in a 3-1 win at home to Arsenal in the Premier League.
Ian Wright had initially put the Gunners ahead, only for ‘God’ to put on a finishing clinic.
Five years later to the day, in 2000, Fowler was again on the scoresheet against Arsenal, finding the net in a 4-0 win at Anfield.
Steven Gerrard, Michael Owen and Nick Barmby also found the net for Gerard Houllier’s side.
