The Hillsborough Disaster
* The Hillsborough disaster occurred on April 15, 1989, at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield during an FA Cup semifinal between Liverpool F.C. and Nottingham Forest F.C.
* A large number of Liverpool supporters were directed into already overcrowded standing areas, leading to a fatal crush. Ninety-seven people lost their lives, and hundreds were injured.
* The disaster was caused by poor crowd control, inadequate stadium design, and failures in police management. It led to major reforms in stadium safety across the UK, including the move to all-seater stadiums and stricter safety regulations
