Liverpool fans say emotional goodbye to Steven Gerrard

Liverpool FC supporters bade farewell to their inspirational captain Steven Gerrard as he stepped onto the hallowed Anfield turf for the final time today.   Gerrard, who joined the club aged nine, emerged from the tunnel with his three daughters Lilly-Ella 11, Lexie, nine, and Lourdes, three, as his team-mates and opponents Crystal Palace formed a guard of honour. The heartbeat of the club for more than a decade, Gerrard made 709 appearances for his boyhood team, scoring 185 goals and winning 10 trophies.
