Liverpool players and their partners celebrated the club's Premier Leaguevictory over Watford by attending the 'Creepy CarnEVIL' charity ball held by the James Milner Foundation on Sunday night.
Virgil van Dijk, Jordan Henderson, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Joe Gomez were all pictured in attendance at the high-profile bash at Event City in Manchester.

Manager Jurgen Klopp and wife Ulla Sandrock were also in attendance as they offered their support to Milner, who has made 149 appearances for the Merseyside club since joining in 2015

The event was the latest fundraiser for Milner's foundation, which aims to help young people use sport to live happier and healthier lives.
Attendees had various packages and tables that they could fork out for. Tables for the evening ranged from £1,500 for a 'bronze table' to a whopping £10,000 for the sole 'platinum table'. Sponsorship packages were also available with prices set between £5,000 and £25,000.
Liverpool's vice-captain was pictured arriving at the event in an all-black suit and red tie with wife Amy Fletcher. She also dressed according to club colours in a red dress.
Klopp, meanwhile, opted to wear a dark blue suit with his wife also choosing to dress in red for the lavish occasion.
They were followed into the venue by a host of first-team players and other stars from the footballing world. 

Imposing Dutch defender Van Djik looked sharp in a black velvet jacket and he was kept company by wife and childhood sweetheart Rike Nooitgedagt.
Trent Alexander-Arnold was spotted making a phone call on his arrival as he nursed a finger wound sustained in the win at Vicarage Road. The young full-back scored a sublime free-kick in between goals from team-mates Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino. 
Henderson and Oxlade-Chamberlain both seemed to attend without their partners, Rebecca Burnett and Perrie Edwards respectively, as they made their entrances solo.
Gomez, who missed the win at Watford but has been one of the standout performers for Liverpool this season, stopped to sign an autograph for one supporter as he strolled into the venue with girlfriend Tamara Tia.

Injury-ravaged midfielder Adam Lallana and his wife Emily Jubb also looked very stylish as they arrived at the dinner while Joleon Lescott and Alex Bruce were also among the high-profile guests.
Milner also posted a series of photos on Instagram later in the evening. One showed him stood with Liverpool team-mate Andy Robertson while former Red Jay Spearing was present.
He also posed with Stephen Darby, the former Liverpool, Bradford and Bolton defender who was recently diagnosed with motor neurone disease.
Guests in attendance were treated to performances from some famous musical faces, including Take That icon Gary Barlow.
