A DEDICARED Liverpool fan spent 235 days cycling from South Korea to Anfield -  only to miss out on getting a ticket to see the match.

Jungyu Lee took plenty of photos during his journey and used a white board in each picture to show his staggering mile count as he cycled over 10,000 miles.

The South Korean's misfortune of not being able to secure a ticket led to him watching it on a TV in the pub.

Once Liverpool were made aware of his astonishing story, the Reds handed Lee a ticket to see Liverpool vs Tottenham, as well as a stadium tour.
