Liverpool Football Club investigate pitch invader incident

LFC have issued a statement regarding the pitch invader that ran onto the field after Roberto Firmino’s goal in Sunday’s 7-0 win against Man Utd on Sunday and slid into and injured Andy Robertson.

A club statement read:

Liverpool FC has begun an immediate investigation to identify and ban the individual pitch runner from Sunday’s Premier League fixture against Manchester United at Anfield. The offender ran onto the pitch and collided with Liverpool players, risking injury, as they celebrated the seventh goal in front of the Main Stand.

There is no excuse for this unacceptable and dangerous behaviour. The safety and security of players, colleagues and supporters is paramount. The club will now follow its formal sanctions process and has suspended the alleged offender’s account until the process is complete. If found guilty of the offence of entering the pitch without permission, the offender could face a criminal record and a lifetime ban from Anfield and all Premier League stadiums.

These acts are dangerous, illegal and have severe consequences.
