VIDEO: Man City bus pelted with eggs, flares & glass bottles at Anfield

The bus carrying the Premier League leaders received a fierce welcome when it arrived at Liverpool's history ground

Manchester City's team bus was pelted with cans, eggs, flares and glass bottles as it arrived at Anfield for Wednesday's Champions League quarter-final.

Hundreds of Liverpool fans had gathered around the Arkles pub on Anfield Road to greet their own team bus, as has become tradition before the club's biggest matches.

But a handful of supporters reacted angrily when City's bus took the same route towards the stadium, with a number of objects thrown from the assembled crowd.
