And Liverpool players Andy Robertson and Ben Woodburn took some time out of pre-season training to get involved in the dramatic draw.
Red Neighbours is once again donating 1,100 tickets to the 25 local schools in the L4, L5 and L6 areas – 21 primary schools and four high schools – with each receiving 11 free tickets to four different Premier League home games at Anfield.
Robertson said: “It’s great to be part of this initiative, which enables young local fans to experience a matchday at Anfield.
“The stadium has an unbelievable atmosphere, so they’ll have an amazing experience no matter which game they attend.”
Natalie Walsh, assistant head of special needs education at Alsop High School, said: “This free ticket giveaway is a fantastic initiative.
“Attending a matchday at Anfield is an unforgettable experience. Seeing their reaction to the crowds and the atmosphere is priceless.”
Providing free match tickets to local schools fulfils one of Red Neighbours’ four main aims – creating memorable experiences for young people.
The other three areas of focus are: food poverty and education; creating a physically active community; and support for the elderly community.
