Rafa Benitez’s Reds went wild after a nailbiting shoot-out win dumped Chelsea from their third Euro semi-final in four years.
And Kop skipper Gerrard thanked Blues boss Jose Mourinho for firing them up.
He said: “Mourinho did the team talk for us. We read all the Press and although he’s great for the game, he makes us laugh sometimes.
“I thought it was a little disrespectful to call us a little club but there you go. But for a little club, getting to two European Cup finals in three years isn’t bad, eh?
“This is one of the best nights of my life. The first one was special two years ago but to do it again when you’re 1-0 down against such a good side as Chelsea, is a wonderful achievement.
"We gave everything — we all fought and believed and nobody can say that we did not deserve it.”
Daniel Agger’s first-half goal tied the aggregate score at 1-1 before keeper Pepe Reina produced two wonder saves in the penalty shoot-out.
Liverpool sealed a 4-1 win on spot-kicks to leave themselves on the brink of a sixth Euro crown.
Mourinho moaned: “Everyone has to be strong at a moment like this but I could not be prouder of the team.
"Even against a team that was only playing for the Champions League we were stronger physically and mentally.
"We were the only team trying to win in 90 minutes and then extra time.
“People keep speaking about the atmosphere but it was not a problem for us.
"We were still throwing our strong players forward for free-kicks. I have an incredible bunch of players.”
Benitez admitted: “It is the most satisfying night for me. When we have these fans behind us, that really plays a part. I am so proud of everyone.”
