As we continue our flashbacks of Liverpool achieving a remarkable treble 30 years ago this week, pint-sized midfielder Sammy Lee recalls a memorable header in the European Cup semi-final.

On an April night at Anfield, Joe Fagan's high-flying Reds met Romanian outfit Dinamo Bucharest in a two-legged last four tie in the continent's elite competition.

Before the game the boss had told his players: "While we shall be looking to score goals tonight, it's worth remembering that if we prevent Dinamo from getting the ball into the net, we must be in with a chance when we go to Romania."

As it happened, Liverpool would take a slender 1-0 lead to Bucharest courtesy of a stunning leap from Lee and a rare goal with his head.

Recalling that moment, the now 55-year-old told Liverpoolfc.com: "I remember it well. I didn't score many goals and certainly didn't score many with my head.

"I don't think it was a famous goal, though, as I'd say it was infamous! For someone of my stature to outjump somebody to score a headed goal, there is something wrong somewhere!

"It was a terrific ball in and I took full advantage of it. To score it at the Kop end is something I'll never forget and I never want to forget it."

Despite only taking a narrow one-goal advantage to Romania, two strikes from lethal marksman Ian Rush sealed a final date in Rome with a 3-1 aggregate victory.

Lee was the only Scouser in the all-conquering team and one of only five ever-presents to have played the full 66 games that season, alongside Bruce Grobbelaar, Phil Neal, Alan Kennedy and Alan Hansen.

For the lifelong Liverpool fan, he was living a childhood dream by helping the Reds to win almost everything throughout 1983-84.

He added: "It was a unique achievement. It wasn't about squads in those days and in league games there was only one substitute so it was a case of everybody knew they had to be fit and in the team, because the moment you deviated away from top form you were out of the side. You had to be on your top form every game.

"For me to be the only Scouser in the side was massive for me, but to be honest we never ever thought of it like that because once we came through the Melwood gates we were all Liverpool players and we were all Scousers really. The only difference is I was born here in the city.

"Everybody bought into the ethic and everybody bought into just how important the football club is to the fans, which continues to this day and it will always be that way.

"Our supporters are special and they are more special than any other supporters in the world - and I firmly believe that."

As to the achievements of Fagan, Lee continued: "Joe was massive. He could knock you down but he could also build you up. When he built you up, you felt you could go and take the whole world on and that's how we all felt.

"I don't think Joe ever gets the credit he deserved, and neither do Ronnie Moran and Roy Evans. People talk about psychologists in football nowadays but guys like Joe, Ronnie and Roy did it themselves and they did it with immense pride."

Of all the legendary figures in that special Liverpool team, the former No.8 is in no doubt whatsoever who stands out above the rest - his midfield partner and captain of Fagan's treble winners, Graeme Souness.

He said: "For me, Graeme was the best player I ever played with. The man is immense and for me he is the main man.

"I was very fortunate to have played alongside some fantastic players at Liverpool but Souness was the No.1.

"As a young player, to play alongside Graeme in central midfield was immense and great for my learning process. I learned so much from him."
