Football, though, took very much second place ahead of the game as everyone paid their respects following the murder of 11-year-old Rhys Jones.
The build-up to the match had been overshadowed the shocking incident in nearby Croxteth.
And ahead of the match, his parents Melanie and Steve, and his brother Owen stood on the touchline flanked by managers David Moyes and Mark Hughes for a moving minute of applause. ________________________________________________________
