Reds win first ever game 1892

03 September 1892



On September 3, 1892, Higher Walton were the opposition for the club's first competitive match and the occasion was marked by an 8-0 success.
It was the start of an excellent season for Liverpool, who easily took the Lancashire League as well as the Liverpool District Cup.
With a Reserve Cup secured as well, Liverpool had claimed a modest treble - highly impressive for a team not even 12 months old. Everton were getting worried.
The following season would see the new boys compete in the Football League for the first time.
