Liverpool have kopped some flak from fans of Europa League rivals Unirea Urziceni after claiming this week’s tie with the Romanians will actually take place in Hungary.
Rafa Benitez’s team are due to play Romanians Unirea on Thursday in the second leg of their Europa Cup last-32 tie.
But the official Liverpool website has angered Unirea fans by saying the match will take place in Budapest – the capital of Hungary – instead of Bucharest in Romania.
The story also claims Liverpool will be playing Unirea Urzicini, misspelling the club’s name.
‘We know the British are quite stupid and usually very ignorant of other countries but schoolchildren could get this right,’ said one Romanian fan.
Now Romania’s top selling newspaper Libertatea has hit back dubbing Liverpool ‘Liver-pul’ – Romanian slang for d***head.
