A misunderstanding led to Liverpool players getting into a normal bus when a special, fully-decorated bus was ready to pick them up from the airport.

After the incident, netizens were confused and curious as to why the team did not take the Liverpool bus, while the keyword “Tom Sermyon” also went viral.

Many netizens said jokingly that Tom Sermyon might be the main sponsor of this tournament. Some of them are looking to buy lottery tickets bearing the plate number.
