Scott Carson has recalled playing against a star-studded Juventus side back in the 2004/05 season.

As a 19-year-old, the goalkeeper featured for Liverpool in the Champions League against the likes of Gianluigi Buffon, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Alessandro Del Piero and Pavel Nedved.

Carson, now with Derby County, has remembered how he felt when rubbing shoulders with such absolute legends of the game as the Reds went on to win the European title that campaign.

“Buffon was in goal for them. I remember I was in awe of him when I was standing next to him in the tunnel," Carson told The Guardian.

“I got his shirt – that had pride of place. He was one of my heroes growing up.

“Ibrahimovic played, Del Piero, Nedved … it was like playing one of the old‑style computer games, then all of a sudden you're up against them, it was just surreal."
