Liverpool had been forced to enter the first qualifying round of the 2005–06 UEFA Champions League, despite being champions. They had failed to finish in the top four during the 2004–05 FA Premier League, which would ensure Champions League qualification. UEFA granted them special dispensation to enter the competition as holders.http://www.uefa.com/uefa/news/Kind=128/newsId=308644.html Liverpool allowed to defend title UEFA 10 June 2005 30 November 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20070621190250/http://www.uefa.com/uefa/news/Kind%3D128/newsId%3D308644.html 21 June 2007 dead Meanwhile, CSKA Moscow were in the middle of their domestic season. At the time of this match, they were second in the 2005 Russian Premier League, seven points behind leaders Lokomotiv Moscow.http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/supercup/history/season=2005/round=2194/match=81041/report=pr.html https://archive.today/20130105014759/http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/supercup/history/season=2005/round=2194/match=81041/report=pr.html dead 5 January 2013 Monaco matters to champion clubs Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) 26 August 2005 25 April 2011 Greg Demetriou Both teams valued the competition, despite some commentators being dismissive of the match's importance. CSKA captain Sergei Ignashevich underlined his team's determined mood: "We know their players are very strong because they won the Champions League. But we are not thinking about individuals. We will only worry about ourselves and not them." Likewise, Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard was equally determined to be successful: "This is the opportunity to win another trophy. When you play against good teams you have to do your best. I am not thinking about the past and that we won the Champions League." CSKA and Liverpool had injury concerns ahead of the match. CSKA striker Ivica Olić, the top scorer in Russia at the time, was sidelined with a serious knee injury. However, fellow CSKA striker Vágner Love was said by manager Valery Gazzaev to have "no problems" over his leg injury. Liverpool were without injured duo Djimi Traoré and Peter Crouch. There was also doubt over whether their captain Steven Gerrard would play. The decision over whether his calf injury had healed sufficiently for the match was left to the last moment. However, Gerrard was not deemed fit enough to play and was left out of the squad.http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/supercup/history/season=2005/round=2194/match=81041/report=rp.html https://archive.today/20120711151749/http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/supercup/history/season=2005/round=2194/match=81041/report=rp.html dead 11 July 2012 Cissé inspires Liverpool comeback Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) 26 August 2005 25 April 2011 Greg Demetriou The lead up to the match had been changed from the previous year.

Dietmar Hamann shot from 20 yd m but his shot was saved by CSKA goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev. 11 minutes after the start of the match, Luis García was put through on goal from a pass by Hamann, but before he could shoot, Akinfeev had smothered the ball. García was put through on goal again moments later from a Boudewijn Zenden pass but his shot went over the crossbar. Midway through the first-half, García found Fernando Morientes 25 yd m from goal with a pass, but Morientes' subsequent shot was saved by Akinfeev. At this point in the match, Liverpool were dominating possession but were unable to convert this into goals.https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/4180288.stm Liverpool 3–1 CSKA Moscow (aet) BBC Sport 26 August 2005 25 April 2011 With Liverpool dominating for the majority of the half, CSKA scored against the run of play.

Liverpool's poor play in front of goal continued after the restart; Josemi had a chance to score, but his shot from the edge of the penalty area went over the crossbar. After the attack, Liverpool made the first substitution of the match; Florent Sinama Pongolle replaced Finnan. After just over an hour's play, a mix-up between Reina and Sami Hyypiä nearly contrived to present a goal to CSKA, before Hyypiä intervened to clear the ball. CSKA made their first substitution in the 66th minute with Deividas Šemberas replacing Yuri Zhirkov. Liverpool followed this by replacing Xabi Alonso with Mohamed Sissoko. Vágner Love had a chance to extend CSKA's lead in the 77th minute, but he was unable to control the ball after a high pass and lost possession. Despite their lead, CSKA were negative in their play; they were punished when Liverpool replaced John Arne Riise with striker Djibril Cissé. Cissé made an immediate impact; he ran on to a pass from García. The pass was cleared by CSKA defender Sergei Ignashevich but it ricocheted off Cissé and left him with an open goal after Akinfeev had come off his line in an attempt to clear the ball. Cissé's goal meant the match was now drawn at 1–1, and with no further goals, the match went into extra-time. CSKA kicked off the first half of extra-time. Five minutes into the half, Liverpool substitute Sinama Pongolle was booked. With two minutes of the half remaining, the ball was played into the centre of the CSKA half; Ignashevich misjudged the flight of the ball, which went over his head and fell to Cissé. His subsequent shot was saved by Akinfeev, but the ball rebounded to Cissé who scored to give Liverpool a 2–1 lead. The half was brought to an end with Liverpool leading for the first time in the match. Liverpool kicked off the second half of extra-time. CSKA had the first chance of the half, but Vágner Love's effort was easily saved by Reina. Liverpool responded midway through the half; Cissé's cross from the right side of the pitch was met by García, who scored. No further goals were scored, and the referee blew for full-time with the final score 3–1 to Liverpool.

We were controlling the game, passing the ball around and then we made a mistake and had to work really hard to get back. They played well, but I think we controlled the game. To score three goals is not easy. I can say that we are very happy now with this trophy. Now is the time to enjoy our victory." With five days of the transfer window left, Benítez refused to speculate on whether Liverpool would sign Michael Owen, stating, "I like good players, we have a lot of them here."http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/supercup/history/season=2005/round=2194/match=81041/report=rw.html https://archive.today/20130105152839/http://en.archive.uefa.com/competitions/supercup/history/season=2005/round=2194/match=81041/report=rw.html dead 5 January 2013 Liverpool celebrate in Monaco Union of European Football Associations 26 August 2005 25 April 2011 CSKA manager Valery Gazzaev praised his players despite their loss and hinted that injuries may have been a factor in the loss: "The game was satisfactory – we had followed the plan we set out, but still we made two mistakes. On the whole I think our team played very well but of course it is a shame we didn't win. We had a lot of good opportunities but we couldn't do it. Liverpool played as we expected – they played quite aggressively. We didn't feel uncomfortable but we made a couple of mistakes." Gazzaev rued the injuries his team suffered indicating there might have been a different outcome had certain players been fit. Despite Cissé's two goals, there had been speculation linking Liverpool with re-signing Michael Owen, who had left the club for Real Madrid a year earlier. Liverpool fans had even chanted Owen's name during the match, singing, "There's only one Michael Owen." Cissé underlined the importance of scoring twice with speculation rife: "It is clear scoring two goals in the Super Cup is important for me, because there has been a lot of speculation about me of late and about my position within the club." Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher stated the importance of the two goals for Cissé: "Cissé wanted to prove a point – he wanted to show everyone what he can do and great credit to him. We're the players – it's up to us to play and the management decides which players we have." Carragher confirmed that Liverpool missed their captain Gerrard, but was delighted to win the match despite this.
