Liverpool release statement after "vile chants" from Man City fans in Anfield clash

Liverpool have condemned the "vile chants relating to football stadium tragedies" chanted by some Manchester City fans during Sunday evening's Premier League fixture between the two clubs.

Mohamed Salah scored the winner in a controversy-filled encounter at Anfield, during which City saw an opening goal ruled out and Jurgen Klopp was sent off. City manager Pep Guardiola was also pelted with coins by some of the home fans as he vented his fury with Phil Foden's strike being chalked off.

In response to the chants heard by a section of the away end during the hard-fought match, Liverpool have vowed to work with "the relevant authorities" to ensure they are "eradicated from football altogether". The Reds also stated that areas of the concourse were vandalised "with graffiti of a similar nature".
