It really is a special atmosphere.
Who says this famous old competition is dying out?
Not many who experience days like this.
Liverpool fans mainly encamped to our left, Arsenal's to our right.
Deafening atmosphere in these fantastic surroundings.
Liverpool happy to bring players back behind the ball,
and regain possession too through Danny Murphy.
Heskey, 22 goals this season.
Ljungberg, threading it on, there's no flag, Henry with a great chance!
Thierry Henry!
Well, Wiltord was up in support of him, he went for goal, saw the angle,
but he couldn't squeeze it in.
Markus Babbel with this long throw for Liverpool.
Murphy couldn't get a strike at it,
but Gerrard did.
It whistled over the bar.
Down goes Owen, Keown.
Hyypia's made a dart across the box, here's Heskey!
Great stop by Seaman, terrific reaction save by the goalkeeper.
And they are so indebted to the expertise of David Seaman.
Henry was one option.
Hamann almost dispossessed,
and Henry's in here, Thierry Henry!
Surely it has to be a goal. Ashley Cole, no, it won't go in.
An amazing escape by Liverpool.
Henry, he's done really well.
Now a chance for Ljungberg!
Again Hyypia is there.
Still they can't force it in.
But Liverpool's goal leading a charmed life; they have survived, but only just.
That's one way of doing it.
Liverpool might be stretched now, it's Ljungberg going all the way through!
1-0 in the 72nd minute.
A breakthrough for Arsenal, but they have been threatening throughout this second half.
Freddie Ljungberg.
Ray Parlour was the offender, it will be a free kick for Liverpool.
Gary McAllister will take charge.
Up comes Hyypia, Carragher's stayed forward too.
Seaman staying back on that goal line, it's Owen!
It's 1-1 with seven minutes to go, they have bounced back and done so in style.
Michael Owen, you would have put your shirt on him, wouldn't you?
A little man, but a man for the big occasion.
Out comes Heskey, now Patrik Berger.
Adams has stayed back for Arsenal,
look at the pace of Michael Owen again!
It's there!
Michael Owen strikes again, and incredibly, Liverpool have turned it around.
The boy is a genius.
You can't console him at the moment, or these suffering Arsenal fans.
Fowler is onside, he's got Owen up with him.
Seaman with the save. It could have been all over, it's not quite yet.
Adams, to Pires.
The final whistle, and Liverpool, thanks to this young man, have done it.
Robbie Fowler, who scored in the Worthington Cup final here
and was a winner on that day. As John Barnes and myself were saying,
they rather love it here in Cardiff.
JOHN BARNES: Sami Hyypia has given the cup to Robbie and Jamie Redknapp,
he was the captain for the day but that's a tremendous gesture from Sami,
to allow Jamie Redknapp and Robbie Fowler to go up and collect the cup.
- And that sums up the spirit of Liverpool Football Club,
winners of the FA Cup in the year 2001.
It's Liverpool's cup at the start of a new millennium, in the Millennium, in Cardiff.
