In this world there are only two international languages, soccer and music. And, if there is one that is fluent in both languages, it is Liverpool. That is what was said by Fritz Pleitgen of Die Zeit magazine.

Liverpool\'s Mohamed Salah celebrates scoring his goal.

In this world there are only two international languages, soccer and music. And, if there is one that is fluent in both languages, it is Liverpool. That is what was said by Fritz Pleitgen, a sports correspondent of Die Zeit magazine on May 12, 2017. He took the words from his colleague, Neil Peterson, who drove him around to see the city of Liverpool and its soccer activities.

Indeed, a beautiful musical language emerged from Liverpool in 1960 when John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr formed the band The Beatles. Their music soon became a global language, loved and sung everywhere. Later, with Yoko Ono, Lennon wrote the song "Imagine" that inspired the world to love peace.
