Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson has sent his condolences to Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo following the tragic death of his son shortly after childbirth.
The United forward missed the Premier League encounter between the two sides on Tuesday night after being granted compassionate leave by his club following the news about his son, which was confirmed on Monday. Ronaldo and his partner Georgina Rodriguez had been expecting twins but sadly only their daughter arrived safely.
Despite Ronaldo not playing as Liverpool hosted Manchester United on Tuesday, Reds fans took part in an organised applause during the seventh minute to honour his son and broke out into a spontaneous chorus of 'You'll Never Walk Alone'. Ronaldo's family have now responded to the touching gesture and thanked fans for their support.
