Liverpool and Hertha Berlin to celebrate anniversaries with July friendly

Liverpool and Hertha Berlin will celebrate their 125th anniversaries with a pre-season match in the German capital.

Both clubs were founded in 1892, with this summer's fixture taking part on July 29 at the Olympiastadion.

The teams last met in 2008 and July's game will be played under the banner, 'Celebrating football since 1892'.

This will be the fourth time the two sides have met in friendly encounters and takes place just four days after the Bundesliga club's official 125th anniversary.

Both teams have festivities planned throughout the 2017/18 season to celebrate the milestone.
