As Liverpool and Manchester City face off in a match that could determine the new leader of the English Premier League, Liverpool fans have already created a viral moment.
Fans of the Reds serenaded their team with a pre-game rendition of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s/Gerry and the Pacemakers’ ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’ at Anfield on Sunday morning.
The song, which has been the club’s de facto anthem since the 1960s, can be heard before every home match. The video of Sunday’s rendition was especially viral, perhaps given the implications of the match.
A win for either side would give the winning team the points to surpass Arsenal for Premier League leadership with two and a half months to play.
Liverpool fans sing ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’ ahead of Man City match
You’ll Never Walk Alone lyrics
When you walk through a stormHold your head up highAnd don’t be afraid of the dark
At the end of a stormThere’s a golden skyAnd the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the windWalk on through the rainFor your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk onWith hope in your heartAnd you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone
Walk on, walk onWith hope in your heartAnd you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone
