Liverpool FC Menghormati Peringatan 37 Tahun Tragedi Hillsborough

Ninety-seven fans were unlawfully killed as a result of the disaster that occurred at the FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest on April 15, 1989.

In remembrance, the head coaches and captains of the Reds’ men’s, women’s, U21s and U18s teams visited the Hillsborough Memorial at Anfield to lay wreaths.

So too did club officials, including CEO Billy Hogan, Sir Kenny Dalglish and ambassadors Ian Rush and Natasha Dowie.

Members of Liverpool’s men’s squad and coaching staff also paid their respects at the Hillsborough Memorial at the AXA Training Centre.

Flags were flown at half-mast at club sites and tributes took place elsewhere across the city.

At 3.06pm, the time at which the match in 1989 was halted, the club observed a period of silence in honour of the 97.

Ninety-seven biodegradable balloons were subsequently released from the centre-circle at Anfield in a poignant act of remembrance.

The Anfield retail store closed at 1pm, while the LFC Museum and stadium tours ceased operations at the same time.
