The Miracle of Istanbul
Yeah, you probably remember the game itself, but if you haven’t stumbled across previous editions of the FootballJOE Teammates XI Quiz before, that isn’t what we’re testing here.
No, instead, we take the starting XI of a team from a particularly memorable game and use it as a gateway for a quiz looking at the careers of the individuals involved – in this case, it’s Liverpool’s 2005 Champions League winners from that night in Istanbul.
All that’s needed is for you to look at the players that started for them in that game then work out which of the four options did NOT play with them in a competitive game at any stage in their career – either for club or country.
There are 11 marks (obviously). Think carefully. Full marks is far from easy.
