Star Studded Match
A star studded legends match between Liverpool and Ireland is taking place at the Aviva Stadium in April, with funds going towards the rehabilitation of Sean Cox.
The Liverpool fan from Meath was attacked outside Anfield before the Champions League semi-final against Roma last year, and is still recovering from his injuries.
The FAI confirmed the match will take place on April 12th.
