History was made at Anfield last night as Steven Gerrard scored his 100th goal for Liverpool.The red's win over PSV Eindhoven was also cause for double celebration as Robbie Keane scored his first goal for the club.
Gerrard becomes the 16th member of the elite group of Liverpool centurions, which includes Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler, Kenny Dalglish and Kevin Keegan.
Manager Rafael Benitez said, "He is one of the best offensive midfielders in the world and hopefully he will go on to score many for us in the future."
Commenting on Keane's long-awaited first goal, Benitez said, "Everyone was talking about this so it was important for him and for us that he scored.
"Robbie has been a very good player in the Premier League with Tottenham and [we] knew it would just be a question of time."
Dirk Kuyt also scored in the 3-1 victory, which puts Liverpool joint top of their Champions League group with Athletico Madrid.
