Post: Manchester United sets up advanced mobile barriers outside Old Trafford after Liverpool fans attack

September 3 The Daily Mail reported that Manchester United built a steel protective circle in the busiest area of ​​Old Trafford to prevent terrorist attacks on the stadium.

This move to protect fans from the threat of collision attacks stems from a tragedy near Anfield Stadium in May, when a vehicle crashed into fans celebrating Liverpool's championship, causing 79 people to be injured.

Manchester United insiders said the club had long planned to upgrade security infrastructure, but the horrible incident at Liverpool further strengthened the need for stricter counter-terrorism measures. Now the most advanced mobile barrier has been deployed at both ends of Matt Busby Jazz Avenue – the main entrance for 74,000 fans on the day of the game. This Belgian-born barrier can instantly stop hostile vehicles and destroy their engines. It has been put into use in home games against Arsenal and Burnley, complementing the existing pier system around the stadium.

This barrier system has been applied to world-renowned landmarks and key counter-terrorism targets, with its particular advantage in rapid deployment and ensuring the safety of the external main roads of Old Trafford within minutes.
