#Gentlefan: Liverpool Supporters Get Warm Welcome in Moscow (PHOTOS)

A group of Spartak fans, whose team snatched a 1-1 draw in the Championship League match in Moscow, has arranged a hospitality event for supporters of the British club.

Ahead of the game on Tuesday, Spartak Football Academy students presented Liverpool fans with commemorative red T-shirts decorated with a timeline of the two clubs' matches. 

The organizers of the match, for their part, tried to do their best to maintain the atmosphere of hospitality at the stadium.
