Included in the line up for the legends were Phil Neal, David Fairclough, David Johnson, Ronnie Whelan, Alan Kennedy, Mark Wright, Howard Gayle, Phil Babb and Michael Thomas who played at the top of their game when the Anfield boys ruled England and Europe.

 A great evening was had by all inside the stadium with the legends signing autographs and handing out certificates to the youngsters who took part in the training camp. It will be a day the TRNC won’t forget and shows just how far the TRNC has come this year to attract such line up of superstars to visit North Cyprus, giving the fans and locals the chance to watch a super game and meet these great players who once had Europe at their feet.
