Free kick on the edge of the area for Utd when Partey bumps into one of theirs after the ball has been played. Mane taken out in the box by a violent challenge after he’d play the ball - nothing.

I know from an old topic that we share the same first game at Anfield (Sept 1987 v Oxford). I won’t be on Bournemouth beach! I spent the last 10 minutes of the Chelsea v City game on the phone with my brother ( I’m in NYC, he’s in Dublin). It’s too intense, even 24 hours later. I’ve watched all the clips, all the videos but it still feels bottled up. When Jordan does actually lift it, I will lose all emotional control.

I only realized 10 minutes before kickoff. Got a Chinese stream that was a minute or so behind so I got the goals from Twitter...

NBC commentators plumbing new depths today.

12 Sept 1987 (first home game of the season due to building work) Opposition: Oxford United Location In ground: Kop Line-up: Grobbelaar; Nicol, Vension, Gillespie, Hansen; Whelan, McMahon, Spackman, Barnes; Beardsley, Aldridge Aldridge 13, Barnes 37. First game for Barnes and Beardsley at Anfield. Aldridge slid one in and climbed on the railings at the Kop end. Second goal was a free kick. I can still see the Oxford wall, hear the ref’s whistle, ball came over the wall and into the net. I ended up near the corner flag on the Main Stand side, having started in the centre. Kop sang ‘Walshy needs a haircut’ at Paul Walsh before the game. Came up from London on the train for the day, was working there for the summer while in uni in Dublin. Club shop was a dungeon under the Kop. Been back 3 times since (1995, 1996, 2013). Brought my son from the US for the Nov 2013 game (v Fulham). Wish I could have made it this season.

What really annoyed me was the Madrid players all coming over to Salah when he was going off, which was clearly by design. Where was Hendo or any of the others to tell them to f*** off? Where were they in the ref’s face to tell home this was part of the plan?

Like Danny Ward?

Bertrand puts that ball out and it’s all over.

Slow mo shows ball cleared outside of the area and ref still hasn't signaled. Utterly rubbish call.

Pretty much it.

Worst Leicester memory; Losing 1-0 at Anfield on the night Utd won at Juventus in the CL Semi Final. Last minute Ian Marshall goal. Felt like we were finished, they were sweeping all before them and we had Babb, Leonhardsen, Ferri, Kvarme etc. Rubbish mid-table team losing to an even worse Leicester team. We were 10th then, on 21st April.

Kalas.

Sadio misses!!!

Thought so, right in front of the linesman.

Lovren poor so far. Having real trouble with Dzeko.

Kit is horrendous.

Yes it was pay at the gate. My first ever league game as I was in London for the summer from Ireland. Nicol's header was beyond belief. Hung around to see the team get on the bus afterwards. Sewer under the Kop had collapsed so no home games until Oxford in Sept. Was at that too. First ever game at Anfield.

Nice job on the walk out.

That was Keith Costigan. He's a Red but not really a commentator, more an analysis guy.

Sturridge Lucas Milner

Roy Evans.

Milner

Moreno for Can only.

Lassana Diarra because Alou Diarra was "our one"?
