Gerrard dedicates win to the 96
Steven Gerrard dedicated Liverpool's 3-2 victory over Manchester City to the memory of the 96 men, women and children who lost their lives at Hillsborough, their families and the survivors.
The captain was visibly emotional upon the full-time whistle on Sunday after the Reds had marked their final game before the 25th anniversary of the tragedy with a series of tributes.
"The reason I was so emotional was because of when this game fell," explained Gerrard.
"It wasn't just because it was a big match in our season, it was because this week is always about more than football for everyone associated with Liverpool. It's emotional for so many people.
"I'm speaking on behalf of everyone when I say the win was dedicated to the victims and families of Hillsborough."
