More than 30 years ago, Diana, Princess of Wales met Liverpool FC’s players ahead of the FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium.
With this week marking the 25th anniversary of Diana’s untimely death on August 31, 1997, we look back at the time the former Princess met the LFC squad just before kick-off on May 14, 1988. The FA Cup Final was the 107th to take place, with Liverpool facing Wimbledon FC.
Liverpool, who had just won the First Division, went into the final as the favourites, with Wimbledon being the underdogs. Both teams lined up before kick-off to meet Diana, who wore a pale pink dress.
