Celebrations could be heard for over a mile as Congo and England played out a classic in the World in One City (WIOC) tournament.
The game took place last night (June 13) at Jericho Lane, Aigburth, in Group B of the tournament. A community competition, which includes teams representing many different communities who have made Merseyside their home, WIOC is back for its third year in Liverpool.
WIOC's aim is to inspire communities from across the Liverpool City Region to come together through sport, to represent countries of their ethnicity and origin, while celebrating difference and identity. It's organised by a team of dedicated volunteers who want to promote culture, heritage and unity to support diverse communities.
