Gerrard remained to be the only player from that night in Istanbul who was still playing at Anfield by 2014/15. After making over 500 appearances for the Reds, Gerrard made his final appearance in a 6-1 defeat of Stoke City. Since leaving Anfield, the Liverpool legend featured for LA Galaxy in America before announcing his retirement in November 2015 aged 36.
Gerrard applied for the vacant managerial position at League One side MK Dons but instead began coaching the youth at Liverpool under Jurgen Klopp. In May 2018 Scottish side Rangers announced Gerrard as their manager.
The Norwegian missed his penalty against AC Milan but enjoyed seven years at Anfield before signing for Serie A side Roma in 2008. Three years with the Italian outfit were followed by a a successful time at Fulham where Arne Riise established himself as a favourite at Craven Cottage.
Arne Riise has since played for Cypriot side APOEL and Indian Super League team Delhi Dynamos before announcing his retirement.
Kewell suffered an injury to his thigh early on and was forced off as early as the 23rd minute against Milan. The Australian left Anfield for Galatasaray in 2008, playing in Turkey for three seasons before returning down under to play for Melbourne Victory and Melbourne Heart either side of a spell with Qatar’s Al-Gharafa. Kewell announced his retirement in March 2014.
The 40-year-old stepped into coaching with an academy in Australia before taking on a role at Watford. In May 2017 Kewell was appointed head coach of Crawley Town in League Two; however, his impressive form in Sussex lead to him being appointed at Notts County in August 2018 following the departure of Kevin Nolan. Unfortunately for Kewell, he was sacked after fourteen games in charge.
Baron immediately left Anfield for Aston Villa after the infamous night in Istanbul. Further spells with Lyon, Portsmouth and Galatasaray followed; however, the Czech can now be found at Banik Ostrava in his native country of Czechoslovakia.
