Liverpool Women donned black armbands during their WSL clash against Manchester United on Sunday afternoon in tribute to former Red Gilly Flaherty’s father, John, and Beth Mead’s mother, June, who both passed away recently.
Liverpool returned to action after the winter break with an away match to title-chasers United on Sunday afternoon.
And the Reds confirmed in a post on social media pre-match that the team would wear black arm bands at the behest of the players, who will join both Chelsea and Arsenal in the heart-warming gesture for Flaherty and Mead.
