Liverpool fans have been trolled after claiming that “you don’t find 60,000 fans at a charity match anywhere else.”
Liverpool Legends beat Ajax Legends 4-2 at a sold-out Anfield in a charity match on Saturday.
Derk Boerrigter and Kiki Musampa gave the Ajax Legends a comfortable half-time lead, but Liverpool scored four thanks to goals from Gregory Vignal, Djibril Cisse and Nabil El Zhar and Fernando Torres.
Elated Reds fans proudly took to social media to claim that only their team can draw a massive crowd for a charity match.
But that same day, the Real Madrid Legends match against Porto Legends attracted more than 80,000 fans to the Bernabéu.

And fans took to social media to stamp out false claims made by Liverpool fans and mock them.
One wrote: “75,000 people turn up for football help with actors and musicians posing as footballers.”
Another made a comparison to the Sidemen charity match that attracted more than 60,000 fans to the London Stadium last September.
He said: Do escorts make more than that every year?
‘They do it every year on the community shield, right?’ a third fan pointed at X.
The sold-out crowd at Anfield were raising funds for the LFC Foundation, which works in the city and internationally.
Liverpool website reports Since 2017, Legends matches have raised more than £6.4 million in vital funds, with the Foundation supporting almost 123,000 people last season alone.
This year’s money will be used to support the Foundation’s educational programmes, which address social issues in Liverpool.
