Saints 2-0 Liverpool, 14th March 2004

After an 8th placed finish and an FA Cup final the previous season, Saints would end the 2003/04 campaign in a respectable 12th position.

Although the club would soon be suffering relegation, this win over Liverpool proved a highlight and saw two telling contributions from the team’s notable strikeforce.

Talisman James Beattie opened the scoring just after half-time and that season’s new signing Kevin Phillips added a second in the final five minutes.

The duo netted 30 goals between them in all competitions and produced some important moments to see Saints to a mid-table finish.
