Liverpool – Real Madrid : madrilenian players disturbed in the middle of the night by English fans (VIDEO)

Tension is rising in Anfield just hours before the clash between Liverpool and Real Madrid. The Madrid delegation was the victim of a restless night orchestrated by Reds supporters, determined to disrupt the sleep of Carlo Ancelotti’s players.

According to the journalist Paul Senior,’artifice fires and deafening grenades were triggered on the outskirts of the’ hotel where the Madrid team, located on Old Hall Street, is staying. Hostilities reportedly began around 1:30 in the morning to extend to 4am, plunging the scene into a cacophony intended to destabilize the players of Real Madrid before the crucial match of the Champions League.

A tactic already seen but ineffective

Reds fans are no strangers to this kind of ploy. During Real Madrid’s last visit to Liverpool, similar action had been taken in the middle of the night. However, far from destabilizing the Madrilenians, Carlo Ancelotti’s team had inflicted a stinging defeat at Liverpool, winning 5-2 the next day.
