Liverpool captain Henderson: Kiev chance to 'create our own history'

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson says his teammate will try and create their own history when they take on Real Madrid in the Champions League final in Kiev on Saturday.

The Reds have a storied past in the competition, having collected major honours on five occasions. And Henderson is hopeful he and his teammates can place themselves in the annals of Anfield.

"That's what we are trying to do, create our own history," he stated.

"We are a fantastic team with some great players [and] a world-class manager, so we want to create our history by winning trophies - and that's what you get judged on at the end of the day, being successful.

"And then in 20 or 30 years' time, hopefully people can look back on this team and say how good it was and how special it was what they achieved."
