Fans are all sharing the same reaction as footage of the Anfield pitch surfaces ahead of the Liverpool vs. Manchester United match.

Footage of Anfield’s pitch has surfaced ahead of Sunday’s Liverpool vs. Manchester United clash, following heavy snowfall in Merseyside. The game, set for a 4:30 pm kickoff, faces the threat of postponement due to overnight snow and freezing rain.

 

A Safety Advisory Group assessed conditions at 9 am, deferring the decision on the match’s viability until 11:45 am. At 9:31 am, Liverpool released a statement confirming efforts to proceed as planned, with a further safety meeting scheduled for midday.

 

Sky Sports reporter Vinny O’Connor later shared a video showing the pitch in good condition, adding, “Pitch shouldn’t be an issue. Weather still not great though!” The footage sparked widespread discussion among fans debating whether the game should go ahead.

 

One fan commented, “Raining too, should be absolutely fine for the game to continue,” while another noted, “If it was a weekday, we’d all be expected to work in these conditions.” Others questioned the utility of undersoil heating, with one writing, “How can snow outside still threaten a match?”

 

Meanwhile, several airports, including Manchester, Liverpool John Lennon, Leeds Bradford, and Birmingham, temporarily closed their runways due to the snow. Manchester United also issued a statement updating fans on the evolving sit

uation.
