Liverpool Turns Red for Double Cup-Winning Team Despite Defeat to Madrid

Tens of thousands of Liverpool fans lined the streets of the city on May 29 to welcome home their team after a double trophy-winning season.

The Reds won the FA and League Cups but took part in a parade a day after losing the Champions League final in Paris.
