Photos: Legends prepare for Real with seven-a-side game
Steven Gerrard, Ian Rush and Steve McManaman were among those in action as members of the Liverpool FC Legends squad prepared for their clash with Real Madrid by playing seven-a-side this afternoon.
The Legends will take on Real at Anfield on Saturday March 25, and a number of the former Reds trained ahead of that highly-anticipated match at the Academy on Monday.
Gerrard was joined by Rush, Alan Kennedy, Phil Babb and David Thompson as they took on a group including McManaman, John Aldridge, Gary McAllister and Jason McAteer.
It proved to be an entertaining contest, with Gerrard's side eventually running out 4-1 winners before McManaman's team regained some pride by edging a penalty shootout 5-4.
