Liverpool and Manchester are just 55 kilometers apart, but the rivalry between these two cities is historic and deep.
From the factories of the Industrial Revolution to the football pitches of today, their competition has shaped the culture and economics of the region and influenced the entire north of England.
In this episode of Thinking in English, I want to explore the history of these two northern cities. I’ll then look at the economic roots of their rivalry, the cultural identities that set them apart, and of course, the famous football teams that keep the rivalry alive today.
