DEFINING MOMENT

FOOTBALL’S DARKEST DAY
Liverpool fans are pulled from the terraces where they were
being crushed during the FA Cup semifinal match between
Liverpool and Nottingham Forest at Hillsborough Stadium,
Sheffield. The crush led to the death of 96 people and
the Taylor Report, which recommended all-seater
stadiums and found the police to be largely
responsible for the tragedy.
