Steven Gerrard is unemployed after leaving Aston Villa at the end of last year. He and former Liverpool players such as Jerzy Dudek, Sami Hyypia, Martin Skrtel, Dirk Kuyt and Steve McManaman… participated in a charity match with the Celtic Legends team at Anfield.
In this match, Steven Gerrard scored from the penalty spot and then ran to the edge of the field to celebrate. But suddenly, the “rain” of bottles from the group of Celtic fans in the stands flew straight to Steven Gerrard. He was immediately pulled by his teammates from the border area to avoid.
The reason for this is that the British press thinks that Celtic fans are still “bitter” that Steven Gerrard used to have 3 seasons of training rival Rangers in the Scottish championship.
During this time, Steven Gerrard helped Rangers win the 2020-2021 season. And this shattered Celtic’s dream of 10 consecutive seasons of dominance.
The action of the Celtic club fanatic group has been reacted and criticized. British media said it was just a charity match and it was ugly when Celtic fans threw everything at Gerrard.
Meanwhile, Rangers fans criticized the opponent on social media: “Throw a water bottle at Steven Gerrard, who destroyed everything they dreamed of for a decade.” Another scoffed: “We took too much of them so this may be their way of getting a little back.”
