Published by Robert Nolan on April 9, 2009

Serbian defender Ivanovic scored two headed goals — his first for the club — and Didier Drogba added a third after Fernando Torres had shot Liverpool ahead.

Next Tuesday’s second leg at Stamford Bridge may not be a mere formality just yet, but Liverpool will need an exceptional performance to stay in the competition.
