Liverpool's incredible gesture to match Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's amazing generosity

Liverpool star Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain showed amazing generosity when he donated £50,000 to Baby Hospice, Zoe's Place last month.

And it was announced on Monday the midfielder's incredible donation has been matched by the LFC Foundation.

This follows Oxlade-Chamberlain's visit to the Liverpool hospice at the end of March.

The 25-year-old spent time chatting to families and staff as well as handing out gifts and signing memorabilia. 

Oxlade-Chamberlain was also pictured playing football in the garden with some of the babies' siblings.

Zoë's Place provides 24-hour respite and palliative care for babies aged from birth to six years who suffer life-limiting or life-threatening conditions.

The £100,000 will be a massive boost for the independently registered charity, which must raise £1.4million annually in order to stay open.

The England international made his first appearance in a year last month.

He came off the bench late on to feature as the Reds cruised to a 5-0 win over Huddersfield.

Jurgen Klopp may call upon the former-Arsenal man on Tuesday night as his side host Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final.
