Legends charity match raises €748,000 for Seán Cox Rehabilitation Trust

The match saw Liverpool FC Legends and a Republic of Ireland XI come together in aid of the Seán Cox Rehabilitation Trust to raise vital funds for Seán’s ongoing care.

Nearly 27,000 fans turned out to support Seán – who suffered life-changing injuries when he was the victim of an unprovoked attack outside Anfield ahead of the Champions League semi-final with AS Roma in April 2018 – and watch the Reds come from behind to win 2-1.

LFC CEO Peter Moore, LFC Foundation director Matt Parish and Joe Blott, chair of the Spirit of Shankly, presented a special cheque to Seán’s wife, Martina Cox, and Stephen Felle, chairman of the Seán Cox Rehabilitation Trust.
