Manchester United vs Liverpool LIVE!
Match postponed after fans storm
Old Trafford pitch (2/5/2021)
Furious Manchester United fans stormed
the Old Trafford pitch ahead of today’s game
against Liverpool
in protest at the Glazers’ ownership of the club,
with the match protest as a result.
Hundreds of supporters invaded the stadium
ahead of the behind-closed-doors Premier League
contest to express their anger following plans
backed by the Glazer family to join
a proposed European Super League,
which collapsed soon after.
Outside the ground, large numbers of supporters
were also protesting.
A protest was planned outside the ground
at 2pm, with fans congregating
at least an hour before.
A large number of fans ran back out of
the stadium complex at around 2.20pm BST.
