The Argentina captain has paid tribute to those who attended the memorial service to pay their respects to the 96 on Wednesday.

"I have never seen anything like it in my life. I spoke to some people in Argentina about it because it was amazing to see the stadium almost full for a memorial service. It would not happen at other clubs or in other countries," said Mascherano.

"It's great the way the fans and the city came together. They still remember after 20 years the people who lost their lives.

"When I came here I didn't know what happened 20 years ago but living in the city and playing for Liverpool you hear all the stories. It was so sad."
