It was a rollercoaster of emotions for Liverpool fans across the world, on Saturday, and the Irish contingent of Reds supporters were left drained after a white-knuckle Champions League final in Kiev.
SportsJOE and JOE were right there with many of the Liverpool faithful for the duration at a Carlsberg-hosted Champions League final event held at J.K Stoutman’s and that featured Shay Given and former Liverpool midfielder David Thompson.
Following Real Madrid’s 3-1 win over Jurgen Klopp’s men, we caught up with some of those Liverpool fans for their take on the game. There was a mixture of disappointment, acceptance, defiance and plotting for next season.
