Hillsborough remains the UK’s worst sporting disaster<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Sunday’s minute’s silence at Anfield, to remember the 97 Liverpool fans killed at Hillsborough, was “the most respectful” Jurgen Klopp has witnessed. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Liverpool manager praised the Arsenal fans for their “touching” tribute prior to the 2-2 draw.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Saturday, 15 April marks 34 years since the UK’s worst sporting disaster.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Liverpool fans died following a crush at Sheffield Wednesday’s stadium before an FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest in 1989.<\/span><\/p>\n

An inquest into the disaster ruled the fans had been <\/span>unlawfully killed.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

On Saturday, Klopp and Liverpool club captain Jordan Henderson will pay tribute to the 97 at Anfield.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It was probably the most respectful minute of silence I have ever witnessed,” Klopp said of the scenes at Liverpool’s stadium.<\/span><\/p>\n

“There was absolutely no noise apart from a little baby. That you could hear the baby showed how silent it was.”<\/span><\/p>\n

This season has seen a rise in tragedy chanting and the Premier League is seeking to address the “unacceptable issue” as a priority.<\/span><\/p>\n

Earlier in April, Liverpool said it “has to stop” after songs related to the Hillsborough disaster were sung by some Chelsea fans during their 0-0 draw at Stamford Bridge.<\/span><\/p>\n

In November, the Football Association expressed concerns over the rise of <\/span>“abhorrent chants”,<\/span><\/a> while in February, Manchester United and Leeds United <\/span>“strongly condemned”<\/span><\/a> chants about historic tragedies when they met at Elland Road.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I have no explanation [for the chants],” said Klopp. “Football supporters can be a really mean group. <\/span><\/p>\n

“If you find a weak point in somebody, you just put your finger in it. A lot of groups, football supporters, are guilty of that. Not only in football but sports in general.”<\/span><\/p>\n
