“The Unexpected Reason Liverpool Fans Lit Blue Flares at Anfield Ahead of the Spurs Clash”
“Why Liverpool Fans Ignited Blue Flares Outside Anfield Before the Spurs Showdown”
Blue flares lit up the scene as Liverpool’s team bus arrived at Anfield.
The mystery behind Liverpool fans releasing blue flares ahead of their Premier League clash with Tottenham has been explained.
Liverpool triumphed over Spurs 5-1 on Sunday, clinching the Premier League title under Arne Slot in his debut season after joining the club last summer.
Goals from Luis Díaz, Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, and an own goal by Destiny Udogie secured Liverpool’s 20th league title, adding another chapter to the club’s illustrious history.
The atmosphere outside Anfield was electric, with thousands of fans lining the streets to welcome the team bus amidst a haze of red smoke from flares.
However, an unusual sight caught attention—blue smoke, a color synonymous with Liverpool’s city rivals, Everton, mingling with the traditional red.
The reason for this peculiar occurrence seems to have been revealed. According to X user LesleyField5, an Everton fan reportedly purchased a large number of blue flares, removed the blue labels, and replaced them with red ones.
“My mates just messaged me,” he posted on social media. “One of them bought 10,000 blue flares and spent the past four weeks removing the blue labels and replacing them with red ones.
“I hope he manages to sell the whole lot.”

It appears some Liverpool fans were tricked into purchasing blue flares for their match against Spurs.
This latest league triumph marks Liverpool’s first Premier League title celebrated in front of fans.
Their 2019/20 championship celebrations were held behind closed doors due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
With four games still left to play, Arne Slot’s squad secured the title, equaling former manager Jürgen Klopp’s league-winning record.
Liverpool will be honored with a guard of honor when they visit Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea next Sunday.
They will take on Arsenal a week later, followed by Brighton, before lifting the Premier League trophy at home against Crystal Palace on May 25.
