Revive Liverpool

Chapter 67 Commemorating the Hillsborough tragedy
In the 88th minute, Griezmann broke through from the right and made a cross. Suarez headed the goal from a distance, and the ball was slightly higher.

This shot was also the last shot of both sides in the whole game. Manchester City did not make any resistance in the last few minutes of the game.

The score of three to zero was finally maintained until the end of the game.

In the end, Liverpool beat Manchester City [-]-[-] at home.

Liverpool entered the top four of the Premier League for the first time this season.

After the end of the game, captain Gerrard, who was unable to play due to injury, came to the middle of the Anfield stadium.

Facing the Liverpool fans who came to the scene, Gerrard first expressed his inner joy for Liverpool's victory over Manchester City in this game.

At the same time, I wish my teammates to continue to play well in the last few games of this season and bring victory to the team.

I hope that Liverpool can continue to win in the next few games, maintain the No.4 position in the league, and be able to participate in the UEFA Champions League next season.

At the end of the speech, he announced that he would establish his own foundation.

And said that his foundation aims to help children's charity in Merseyside and surrounding areas.

The Liverpool fans who came to the scene also praised their captain Gerrard very much and gave Gerrard the biggest applause.

Meireles had an assist in this game, an indirect assist, and he participated in every goal of the team.

Although he didn't score a goal, his performance in this game was also very good.

After the game, the "Mirror" wrote: "Meireles fully assumed the responsibility of Gerrard's absence. He directed Liverpool's big victory."

Compared with Meireles, who was active in this game, Manchester City's Dzeko was invisible throughout the game.

In the post-match evaluation, the "Manchester Evening News" pointed out bluntly: "Dzeko was not seen in the game at all. If it wasn't because no one was available, Mancini should have replaced him long ago."

After the victory against Manchester City, Gerrard joined the players in the team's dressing room after announcing the establishment of his foundation after the game.

Gerrard said loudly in the team's locker room: "Today we defeated Manchester City with a score of [-]-[-] and entered the Champions League. Are you happy?"

The Liverpool players are of course very happy to win today's game.

The players shouted "Happy" and "Wow, it's so unforgettable!"

Gerrard followed up and said: "I am very happy too, let's have a party!"

The players were very happy to be able to have a party, and they all agreed to say yes.

However, Gerrard's subsequent words made those players who agreed to each other a little helpless.

Gerrard said: "This party is also celebrating the establishment of my foundation, so I will also invite the team's head coach and chairman to this party."

When the other players heard this, they said helplessly: "Come on!"

"How can this be? It's supposed to be a party among our players."

Of course, the players were not only complaining about inviting the team's head coach and chairman to this party, but also complaining that they would have to pay for Gerrard's foundation celebration dinner, bleeding profusely, even if it was handed over to their own captain Gerrard.

On the second night, Captain Gerrard hosted a banquet at his home and invited his teammates to celebrate the victory of the game, and he was also raising money for his newly established charity foundation.

This banquet (it must not be called a party anymore, after all, there is not much entertainment) the team's coach Pochettino and his wife and chairman Li Nan and his girlfriend Keira Knightley also came to Gerrard's home to participate in the banquet.

Because the head coach Pochettino was invited to this party, the players at this banquet could not have a good time.

This became an ordinary networking reception.

This reception was actually an impromptu idea, although Gerrard would certainly hold a banquet for his own foundation and invite his teammates to gather together.

But although his own foundation has been established, the main work of the foundation has not yet been carried out.

I originally planned to hold my team's fundraising meeting when the work of my foundation was about to start.

But it happened that the team defeated its rival Manchester City in yesterday's league match and successfully entered the Champions League area of ​​the league.

It is rare for the team to break out in the later stages of this season, from the relegation zone of the league all the way to the Champions League zone of the league.

It can be said that after the team decisively changed the head coach, Hodgson dismissed get out of class, and after Pochettino came to power, the team performed very well.

So as the captain, Gerrard is going to hold such a banquet to celebrate the team's victory in this game, and also to celebrate the team's recent good momentum in the league.

At the same time, it is also to celebrate the establishment of the foundation. By virtue of the team's win in the league, let your teammates donate a little more money to your foundation.

Because this is a banquet, not a party among the players, the banquet started at around seven o'clock in the evening and ended around ten o'clock in the evening.

On April 4, Liverpool's management, staff, coach and players all came to the Hillsborough tragedy monument in front of Anfield.

People came forward to lay flowers in memory of the 96 Liverpool fans who died in the Hillsborough tragedy.

Even if it is not Saturday and Sunday today, many people came to the audience at Anfield to mourn the dead Liverpool fans.

There are also some political and business celebrities from Liverpool who came to Anfield as usual.

The mayor of Liverpool came to Anfield with all the important officials of the city government. Treve Hicks, chairman of the Hillsborough Victims' Families Support Association, also brought the families of the victims and core members of the support association to the scene.

There are also some Liverpool stars who have also come to Anfield.

The ceremony started promptly at [-]:[-] pm.

96 candles were lit on the Anfield stadium, and the Liverpool team invited the bishop of the local church to preside over the memorial service.

The bishop read out the names of the victims one by one. Today's Anfield stadium is full of tragedy.

The mayor of Liverpool who came to the scene, and the chairman of the support association for the families of the Hillsborough victims all took the stage to deliver speeches.

At 2:22, when the Hillsborough tragedy happened, the whole city of Liverpool was silent for [-] minutes to pay tribute to the tragedy [-] years ago.

Having really experienced such a commemorative event, Li Nan was deeply moved.

Li Nan felt that what she needed to do was to find justice for the Hillsborough tragedy that year.

There has been more and more evidence that the police were indeed suspected of covering up the truth back then, and also guilty of ineffective rescue.

And on April 2016, 4, the hearing of the investigation into the cause of death of 26 victims of the Hillsborough massacre reached a verdict in Warrington: the highest jury ruled that the victims were "illegally killed".

Subsequently, the South Yorkshire Police Chief, who was mainly responsible for the tragedy that year, was suspended for review.

The Hillsborough tragedy has been wronged, and Li Nan feels that it is necessary to do something for the dead Liverpool fans so that they can get a fair judgment early.
