The long-awaited report into the chaos at the Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid lays the blame on UEFA and French police.
Liverpool fans stuck outside the ground showing their match tickets during the UEFA Champions League Final.France’s interior minister, Gerald Darmanin, claimed "30,000 to 40,000 Liverpool fans" had forged or no tickets, alleging there had been an "industrial scale" ticket fraud.
The findings of the report, commissioned by UEFA after the final, concluded that as the “event owner”, the footballing body “bears primary responsibility for failures which almost led to disaster”. This led to a checkpoint at the foot of a 30-foot wide ramp which was not designated as a main entrance.
As the match drew to a close, police in riot gear emerged inside the stadium and proceeded to position themselves around Liverpool's but not Madrid's end.However, a lack of presence outside the stadium contributed to gangs running riot against defenceless supporters outside.An initial message displayed on screens inside incorrectly blaming Liverpool fans' late arrival which prompted outrage from Reds supporters already inside.
