Liverpool won the European Cup for the third time in the 1980-81 season, on May 27, 1981 in Parc des Princes, France. Liverpool's run to the final included a first-round second-leg win against Finnish champions Oulun Palloseura with a scoreline of 10 - 0.
The captain of the Liverpool team on this day was centre back Phil Thompson, who was disappointed the following season when manager Bill Paisley decided to drop Thompson from the captaincy and hand it to Graeme Souness.
