The family of Duncan Browne have spoken about the "devastating" loss as they prepare to honour his memory.
Duncan, 23, from Kirkby, was assaulted on Hanover Street as he waited for a taxi on July 4, 2021. He suffered a cardiac arrest and died in hospital the following day.
An aspiring firefighter and huge Evertonian, Duncan had been in the city centre to watch England play Ukraine in the quarter-final of Euro 2020.
