Taylor Ward and his father, John, were invited to watch the game in an executive box through local charity CHICS, which supports children and young people living with cancer.
The eight-year-old endured a very difficult 2016, having been diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma in April and undergoing both chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Speaking about his visit to Anfield, Taylor said: “I really enjoyed going to the game with my dad. It was lots of fun in the box and I had lots of treats – sweets, hot chocolate, cakes.”
Just before Christmas, on December 23, Taylor and his family received the fantastic news that he is now in remission.
