Agen TangKAsnet -   Steven Gerrard has revealed the heartache he went through in the immediate aftermath of his infamous slip against Chelsea two seasons ago.

Liverpool were on the brink of winning the Premier League for the first time when the Blues came to town on 27 April 2014.

Two more wins would most likely have guided the Reds to their first top flight title in 24 years.

Gerrard, entering the twilight of his career, seemed destined to finally lift the one trophy in English football he had never got his hands on.

But in the first-half of the match against Jose Mourinho's side, Gerrard slipped after failing to control a simple pass, allowing Demba Ba in to score the opening goal of the match.

"I had wanted to win it with Liverpool for so long that, now it had gone again, I could not hold my emotion in check," Gerrard says in his new book, serialised in the Daily Mail. 

"I sat in the back of the car and felt the tears rolling down my face. I hadn't cried for years but, on the way home, I couldn't stop. The tears kept coming. I can't even tell you if the streets were thick with traffic or as empty as I was on the inside. It was killing me.

"Instead of hitting a long crossfield pass to set up a goal, making a decisive tackle or curling the ball into the back of the Chelsea goal to seal our victory, I had fallen over."
