Carlsberg marks 30 years of Liverpool FC sponsorship with fan story ... (The Drum)

The campaign features Ian Rush, John Barnes, Sami Hyypiä, Robbie Fowler, Jamie Carragher and Luis Garcia interviewing the club's top fans.

Because this platform is all about Carlsberg celebrating the fans, we decided to turn the tables on the standard interview format and have our Liverpool FC legends interview the fans instead. Lukas Lund, creative director at Worth Your While said: ”Most content series simply interview the celebrity or influencer. To continue celebrating the milestone, creative agency Worth Your While has developed a six-part short film series for the beer brand.

Five memorable Anfield encounters against Spanish opposition (Liverpool FC)

Ahead of Liverpool's Champions League last-16 meeting with Real Madrid, we take a look at five memorable Anfield encounters the Reds have enjoyed against ...

With talismanic attacking duo Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino sidelined through injury, Divock Origi stepped up to the mark and gave the Reds hope with a seventh-minute opener. One goal down from the away leg and faced with a classy, well-drilled opponent, Liverpool had it all do when the Yellow Submarine rocked up at Anfield. The next 45 minutes were played out in almost unbearable tension, as a Barça side featuring the likes of Rivaldo, Pep Guardiola and Marc Overmars chased a leveller. Club Brugge were beaten in the final as Liverpool went on to win their second UEFA Cup title. Gary McAllister nervelessly fired in from 12 yards to give Liverpool the lead and send the crowd into raptures. A total of 55,104 supporters packed into Anfield to witness Liverpool lock horns with Johan Cruyff and co – and an electric atmosphere hit fever pitch when Phil Thompson’s close-range finish shortly after half-time extended the Reds’ aggregate advantage.

Mum Edele said: "The boys are distraught. It's their dream and they are devastated."

The website reads: "Liverpool FC is committed to tackling ticket touting, and those individuals that fraudulently harvest tickets/memberships to sell at vastly inflated prices. If it wasn't for the kindness of two strangers who gave their tickets, the wee boy was crying outside.

Determined to make the most of their trip before returning home, the Echo said the family planned to head to Anfield to "soak up the atmosphere" last night. "I believe the kindness of others makes the world go around but unfortunately there's a few people who don't have that kindness in their hearts."

Edele continued: "We'd urge people to be very careful, we heard a family from Belfast caught the ferry last week, the tickets were on the father's phone, but when they went to scan it, it wouldn't work. She added: "We ummed and ahhed last week whether or not to make the trip but I have an aunt and uncle in Nottingham so we went there before coming to Liverpool..." She said: "He guaranteed us four tickets and originally my two boys, husband and brother-in-law were supposed to go but my brother-in-law has had a hip replacement so I came along. [Northern Ireland](https://www.belfastlive.co.uk) turned into a nightmare after the person supplying the four tickets disappeared.
