The Football Association is looking into “tragedy chanting” during Sunday’s fixture between and at Kenilworth Road. Chants that indirectly referenced the Hillsborough disaster were heard from some supporters during the second half of the 1-1 draw. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher, commentating on the game for Sky Sports, condemned the chants, while Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp — who said he did not hear the chants himself — said: “Shame on everyone who said it.
“We strongly condemn chanting of this nature and will continue to work closely with our stakeholders across the game, including the clubs, leagues, fan groups and the relevant authorities to proactively address the issue.” Carragher had said: “At the start of the season I was involved in something with supporters coming together about tragedy chanting. “I’ve just heard that a couple of times in this game. As supporters you’ve got to have rivalry, there is no doubt. But we’re better than that.
