Manchester United’s match against Liverpool has been postponed after fans’ Old Trafford invasion, the Premier League club said on Sunday.

“Discussions will now take place with the Premier League on a revised date for the fixture,” United said in a statement released on their website.

“Our fans are passionate about Manchester United, and we completely acknowledge the right to free expression and peaceful protest.”

“However, we regret the disruption to the team and actions which put other fans, staff, and the police in danger. We thank the police for their support and will assist them in any subsequent investigations.”
