Aeroplane banner reminds United of Liverpool’s Champions League success

Manchester United were given a reminder of Liverpool’s recent Champions League victory as a plane carrying a banner flew above them ahead of an open training session at the WACA Ground in Perth on Thursday.

Liverpool added a sixth European crown to their collection when they beat Tottenham in the final last month and some were not willing to let fierce rivals United forget in a hurry.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side were preparing to begin a public training session when the banner, which read “Liverpool FC – 6x European champions” was seen overhead.

United face Perth Glory in their first pre-season friendly on Saturday before taking on Leeds next week.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
