Unknown cars blocked Liverpool's team bus en route to the match against Manchester United, but the "Reds" managed to deceive angry fans and reached the stadium. Photos showed several black cars stopping the Liverpool bus in the middle of the road to prevent it from arriving at the match venue.
It was later revealed that the bus, prominently displaying the name Liverpool, did not actually carry the players onboard. Some speculated it was a "decoy" to protect the main bus transporting the players to the match. The postponed match between Liverpool and Manchester United is scheduled to take place on Thursday evening, having been delayed for 10 days due to violent incidents.
The match between Manchester United at home and Liverpool in the Premier League was previously scheduled for May 2 but was postponed after fans stormed the pitch in protest against the club's owners. Dozens of Manchester United fans invaded their stadium, waving banners and setting fires in protest against the American Glazer family, the club's owners.
According to several sources, fans deflated the tires of the Liverpool bus to prevent it from moving and to cancel the key match, continuing their actions from 10 days prior, but it later became clear that the players were not on board. It remains unknown whether the "Reds" players were on the bus displaying Liverpool's official logo. Meanwhile, Manchester United players arrived at Old Trafford six hours ahead of the match against Liverpool on Thursday to avoid fan protests that could threaten the game.
