An account of the whole day of the worst disaster in Britain's sporting history, which occurred at the Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield on 15 April 1989. The disaster ultimately claimed the lives of 96 Liverpool fans as a result of crushing on the Leppings Lane terrace. In the aftermath of the tragedy, the media spotlight served largely to confuse and even distort the truth about how 96 people died. This is a narrative of the day of the disaster, in the words of those who were there: players, referee, police, emergency service workers, doctors in the crowd, club and FA officials, and those at the heart of the tragedy.
