Back in May 2005, Liverpool defeated AC Milan 3-2 on penalties to claim the Champions League trophy.

Forward Luis Garcia was part of the Reds side which won the final in Istanbul. With that being the case, the Spaniard was awarded a winners medal at the end of the match.

Garcia recently took to Instagram to reveal that he is keeping a close eye on his medal while his house is under construction.
