Last Carlsberg original featured in Anfield

Liverpool will wear Carlsberg on their shirts for the final time at Anfield this weekend, but it'll be with a difference.

The Danish brewers' name has adorned the Reds jersey at every home game over the last 18 years, but as Carlsberg prepare to sign off as the club's shirt sponsors at the end of the season their name will be displayed in Chinese language for the clash with Chelsea on Sunday.

With Liverpool the only UK city exhibiting at World Expo in Shanghai, Carlsberg officials came up with the idea of interacting with the club's massive fan base in China.

This will translate to, Liverpool will wear the original Carlsberg on their jersey for the last time at Anfield tonight, a second-leg Europa League semi-final against Atletico Madrid.

As much as I love the sponsor ,18 years with them and no premier league title.
Hopefully the Chinese font will change our luck.

Whatsoever, the jersey will never be the same without Carlsberg on it, but what to do?
Carlsberg's amount of sponsorship is among the lowest if compare to other big English teams, perhaps this is the right time to restart everything all over again.

Liverpool and Carlsberg billateral relationship has shown their loyalty, I am sure the fans will feel weird without seeing Carlsberg on the jersey.

The atmosphere of the match against Atletico Madrid is gonna be fantastic, let's hope that the lightning will strike for the third time in Anfield, and Liverpool shall overturn the deficit with the help of Kop's roar and chants like how they did against Lille and Benfica.

It is true that Liverpool is the first English team that was being knocked out in Champions League this season, but not many people would expect Liverpool is the only Big Four that is able to remain in European cup tie at this moment, and together with Fulham, they both restored the pride of England after Manchester United and Arsenal both failed to qualify semi-final.

Yeah, Europe League is not really something for some people, but when you realize how terrible Liverpool was during the entire season, you will know how important and how desperate they need to win tonight.

Co-incidentally, the fixtures come true, but let's wish the result will not repeat later.
But ofcourse, after what Liverpool has went thru this season, I must say a silverware cant replace our dissapointment, but atleast it can serve as a consolation for us.

~YNWA~ and keep in faith....
atleast for the next 2hours, hehe!
