Liverpool release statement after 'vile chants' and Anfield vandalised during Man City win

City fans could be heard throughout the match aiming the slurs towards their hosts over the tragedies, while Anfield employees were also forced to deal with vandalism to the concourses that aired similarly sentiments.
