Liverpool v Chelsea Hillsborough spirit

What a cracking game of football last night.
It is wrong to compare the heroics a footballer may produce on a field of play to the heroics a soldier may produce in battle.
However, I did not begrudge Pepe Reina his comment today that he and his Liverpool teammates had 'played for the souls of the 96'.
Liverpool's footballers produced a blistering start and a barnstorming finish. That they lost was no reflection on their spirit and endeavour.
A win would have been perfect,set in context of the eve of Hillsborough's 20th anniversary. Yet this was the most noble defeat I can remember.
I support neither Liverpool nor Everton, but will them both to win for the good of the city and the good of the Echo. I hope Liverpool win the League and Everton the Cup.
And that Newcastle stay up.
But beyond all that I hope the Hillsborough families one day, somehow, find peace.
