Sporting Legends: The Return of Legends Charity Matches

Did you know that there is a football team called Liverpool FC Legends? Well, it's not just Liverpool alone as most of the clubs have their legends team like AC Milan Legends, Bayern Munich Legends, Barcelona Legends, etc. Liverpool FC and these other legend teams periodically compete in the Legends Charity Matches organized by the LFC Foundation.

It is always very interesting to see these past Liverpool FC heroes donning the Reds' shirt and bringing back old memories. But beyond playing football, Liverpool Foundation has humanity at heart which is why they prioritize giving back to the community.


About Legends Charity Matches

The legends game is an important moment in the LFC Foundation calendar. As the name implies, the proceeds from these matches are usually donated to charity for supporting families.

The Legends team comprise of retired club players and heroes who were outstanding during their active careers. So far, the Liverpool FC Legends have placed with many other club Legends teams while winning a majority of the games.



Highlights: Liverpool Legends vs Bayern Munich Legends


According to LFC Foundation, money raised from legends games helps to fund a variety of projects for LFC Foundation and its charity partners, including its employability and training programmes, and health and wellbeing programmes, with a focus on mental health. These are particularly vital projects, which play a huge part in LFC Foundation’s COVID-19 recovery support.


Liverpool FC Legends vs Barcelona Legends

The lockdown halted the charity games but it is here again. It might interest you to know that the Liverpool FC Legends will go head-to-head against Barçelona Legends in a long-awaited tie, as the LFC Foundation Official Legends match returns to Anfield for the first time since 2019.


The epic match brought to us by the Liverpool FC foundation will take the stage on Saturday, March 26, 2022, at Anfield stadium by 3 pm. The core aim is to help raise vital funds for LFC Foundation.

Here's the interesting part of the match, plenty of the Liverpool’s FC legends will be welcomed back to Anfield to play in the hallowed arena.

We will be seeing the likes of Dirk Kuyt, Luis Garcia, Sami Hyppia, Daniel Agger, Maxi Rodriguez, Jason McAteer, Jerzy Dudek, Bjorn Tore Kvarme, Vladimir Smicer, Phil Babb, Patrik Berger, Steve McManaman, Jamie Carragher, Milan Bros, and Stephen Gerard in action. How interesting it is going to be!

The LFC legends team is being managed by Sir Kenny Dalglish and Ian Rush and coached by John Barnes and John Aldridge. While Barçelona Legends is being managed by Albert Ferrer.


Equally, former Barçelona stars Gaizka Mendieta, Juliano Belletti, Javier Saviola, Edgar Davids, and Edmilson will also be in action for the Catalan side.

Whatever the case, one thing I'm certain about is that Liverpool legends will win the game.

More so, the beneficiaries of the charity clash between Reds Legends and Barca legends will be the LFC Foundation, Owen McVeigh Foundation, Right to Play, Barca Foundation, and Forever Reds. This is to support and encourage the great humanitarian services offered by these bodies.


Furthermore, on 21 May 2022, Manchester United Legends will take on Liverpool FC Legends in an iconic event that will see the historic rivalry between the two teams reignited, in a bid to be crowned Legends of the North.

Many criteria must be filled in to be recognized as a legend of a particular football team. At many clubs, it is usually a player's goalscoring record alone. However, at Liverpool FC, commitment and passion for the club are factors considered as well.


For those intending to watch the game live, it's time to go get your tickets.

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE
