Liverpool fans showed their class , united in a fan-led minute of applause at Anfield in support of Cristiano Ronaldo and his family following the death of his baby boy.
Liverpool fans sang their club's anthem 'You'll Never Walk Alone' in the seventh minute.
On Monday, Ronaldo and partner Georgina Rodriguez announced the death of their baby boy, saying it is the "greatest pain that any parents can feel".
Ronaldo and Rodriguez were expecting twins.
Their baby girl survived, and they said her birth "gives us the strength to live this moment with some hope and happiness".
"Our baby boy, you are our angel. We will always love you," they wrote.
RIP baby Ronaldo

Difficult to take much pleasure from United’s shoeing at the hands of Liverpool tonight, given the tragic circumstances affecting their team selection.
No team should have to field Phil Jones in their starting lineup.

Jones was flipping terrified…

To be fair this was more aimed at the gesture. The game and result is irrelevant

Was strange though, the way it was spun in the media was like it was going to be some big gesture, I think everyone expected a clap on 7 minutes and a song to be sung…

Liverpool fans show their class? You've obviously not been to many Liverpool games. It makes a change against Man U not to hear 'the Munich song'. The Merseyside derby usually has a toxic atmosphere. There is a myth around Liverpool supporters propped up by dewy eyed members of the media.
For the record, I have no interest in Liverpool or Man U.

My thoughts entirely. I’ve seen our fans getting robbed and. beaten up at Anfield. I despise them. Where was all the gushing when our fans joined the minutes applause at Kings Lynn. Liverpool fans only did what any other set of fans would have done in the circumstances.

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |

Liverpool fans are, in fact, famous for their positive media representation. Who knew?!

Agree. Nasty bunch of supporters, the club is spoken about romantically all the time and people blow off about the atmosphere, but 100% having witnessed it myself a lot of them are cretins. I know every club has idiots, but Liverpool fans have always been problematic. Only just this weekend, there were videos of them attacking Man City supporter coaches, and apparently after accusing a small number of City fans of booing the minutes silence at Wembley it was said to have been Liverpool fans in the City end who were booing. Either way, I've got no fondness for them regardless of what class some of them showed for Ronaldo.
