Liverpool fans are all saying the same thing after Fernando Torres scored during their legends match at Anfield.
A Liverpool legends match managed by none other than the legendary Sven Goran Eriksson, whose recent revelation of battling terminal cancer added an emotional layer to the already charged atmosphere.
As the match unfolded, with the first half unfolding unfavorably for Eriksson’s Liverpool side, trailing 2-0 after goals from Derk Boerrigter and Kiki Musampa, it was a familiar face who emerged as the beacon of hope – Fernando Torres.
Torres, now 40 years old, showcased glimpses of his former brilliance, reminding fans of the electrifying player who once graced the hallowed grounds of Anfield.
His performance, capped off with a goal, ignited a spark within the hearts of Liverpool faithful, reigniting memories of his glory days and leaving them yearning for his return to competitive action.

In 2011, Torres broke the hearts of many Liverpool supporters when he departed for Chelsea in a then-record-breaking £50 million move.
His departure marked the end of an era, leaving behind a legacy tinged with both admiration for his talents and a sense of unfulfilled potential.

Fans are all saying the same thing on Twitter after the Spaniard’s solid performance.
One fan said: “Let’s replace Gakpo for Torres, much better even at 40.”
Another said: “Torres hasn’t aged a single day, him and Stevie G could still put in a shift.”
And then another fan stated: “Let’s bring him back, better than Cody Gakpo.”
