Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and club captain Jordan Henderson laid out a wreath to mark the occasion of the 28th anniversary of the Hillsborough tragedy.
96 Liverpool fans were killed during the FA Cup semi-final match against Nottingham Forest in 1989 and the families of the fans marked the occasion with a prayer service at the Liverpool cathedral.
While the families had asked the club not to conduct a memorial service at Anfield but the Merseyside giants did their bit to remember the lives lost on that dark day.
A number of club legends also paid their respects on Twitter and we share what they, fans and teams had to say.

A few thoughts on April 15. It is 28 years since Hillsborough. I was 28 then. Sometime this summer it will more than half a lifetime away

A day to reflect on the magnificent efforts of The Families.
I can’t begin to imagine what you’ve been through.
