On 19th April 1989, the following Wednesday of the Hillsborough disaster, an European Cup semi final between AC Milan and Real Madrid was played. The referee blew his whistle 6 minutes into the game to stop play and hold a minute's silence for those who lost their lives tragically at Hillsborough. About 20 seconds into the silence the Milan fans on the Curva Sud began to sing Liverpool's anthem You'll Never Walk Alone as a tribute to those who died. This was a gesture that many Liverpool fans would not forget and there has been great respect between a core section of Liverpool and AC Milan supporters since that night.
