Jerzy Dudek says his brother feels it was the 'Hand of God' on Wednesday.
Jerzy Dudek says his brother feels it was the 'Hand of God' that denied Andrei Shevchenko a late winner in the UEFA Champions League final.
The Liverpool keeper made a remarkable double save to frustrate the Milan striker in extra time and then went on to star in the penalty shoot-out.
With the cheers of the Reds fans ringing in his ears, the Poland international spoke to Sky Sports News about the fabulous night in Istanbul.
"The final was one of the important moments of course," he smiled. "And when we won it at the end, it was one of the greatest moments for all of us, everyone.
"We enjoyed it very much, of course.
"My brother phoned me in the morning and said: 'Have you seen it on TV again?'
"I said no, I hadn't, and he said you need to see it; the rebound, the second Shevchenko shot was the 'Hand of God' because, from nowhere, came your hand to save the goal.
"I said I didn't know how I did it."
Diego Maradona famously coined the phrase at the 1986 World Cup when responding to questions regarding his handball goal in Argentina's controversial win over England.
"After the game, 'Carra' [Jamie Carragher] said to me: 'Remember Bruce Grobbelaar and do the same as him, make them crazy'.
"I said alright, I will try it and I did it.
"It was good enough to provoke them to make mistakes. To be honest, I didn't plan the penalties and, when I saved it, for one second I wasn't sure if it was finished or not.
"Then I saw the guys running towards me!"
