Marcus Rashford and Russell Brand lead tributes on anniversary of Hillsborough disaster

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has paid his respects to the 97 Liverpool fans who tragically passed away as a result of the Hillsborough Stadium tragedy in 1989.

The Reds posted their own tribute on Twitter that read: "Our thoughts, as always, are with all those affected by the tragedy at Hillsborough 33 years ago today and the 97 fans who will never be forgotten. You'll Never Walk Alone." England international Rashford responded by writing: "Never forgotten" alongside a red heart emoji.

Rashford was of course not the only figure to express their sorrow and sympathy on the 33rd anniversary of such a dark day in this country's history. Hollywood star and YouTube personality Russell Brand also took to Twitter to reference the lessons learned in the wake of the tragedy.
