“A Truly Incredible Person” | Van Dijk Surprises a Red Who Saved a Fan’s Life | Dear Liverpool FC

Earlier this year, Liverpool fan John went into cardiac arrest whilst playing for his Sunday league team. He wouldn’t be here now if it wasn’t for the quick actions of Alex, a fellow Red and advanced Nurse practitioner. To show his gratitude, John was accompanied by the skipper Virgil van Dijk to thank Alex for saving his life.

Not even a Liverpool fan but this video was beautiful to watch. That nurse is a hero and massive props to Van Dijk for meeting him

As a Hungarian and Barcelona fan I only started following Liverpool closely since Szobo joined the team, beforehand I only watched the bigger Champions League matches. But since then I now understand through these videos and comments that this club is much more than just a business and I now also understand what they really mean when they say "You never walk alone". Great club with great people!

It's about giving back to the community, recognising that there are a lot of wonderful people out there doing simple but special deeds. Virgil is a great ambassador to this great club. Proud to be a Liverpool fan for over 50 years now. YNWA

[@KTK44]

Today PSG faces Newcastle, two clubs that stands for everything that has gone wrong with football. Sportswashing are getting into our game and clubs cheat, like City and Chelsea. We needed this video today to show that there is still something good left in football. Real values, real passion and heart.

[@alecleamus3280]

I’m just in bits watching this. The nurse was a hero, as are all nurses in my book, but the accessibility to a defibrillator was of course vital that day. Thanks to Nivea & LFC for raising awareness and providing more of these lifesaving pieces of equipment. These are the stories that show that this wonderful club does ‘mean more’. YNWA

[@bionicgeekgrrl]

Every NHS worker is a hero, especially after the pandemic and the hardships they had to endure, which included seeing their colleagues become their patients. Footballers are of course stars and entertain us, but people like Alex are the heroes that this country owes a huge debt of thanks to. They deserve much better treatment as well and much harsher punishment for anyone who gives them abuse.

[@paulfitzpatrick6536]

Exactly

[@markknoop6283]

Defibrillators are every sport facility and shopping area schools and even neighborhoods.
