Anfield paid respects to the 97 supporters who lost their lives in the Hillsborough tragedy, at Wednesday night's clash with Benfica.

The Champions League fixture is the Reds’ closest home match to the 33rd anniversary of the disaster that unfolded at the FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest on April 15, 1989.

In memory of the 97 fans who will never be forgotten, a minute’s silence was held before kick-off and a special mosaic formed on the Kop, displaying the Eternal Flames with the number 97.

Watch the tributes at Anfield in the video above.
