French minister blames ‘industrial level fraud’ for Champions League final chaos
The Independent says French authorities have blamed “fraud at an industrial level” for scenes of chaos at the Champions League final in Paris while Uefa have responded to the growing calls for an investigation – including from Downing Street – by announcing an independent report into the events surrounding the match.
Real Madrid’s win over Liverpool was overshadowed by the shocking scenes outside the Stade de France in Paris where large numbers of supporters outside the stadium prior to kick-off were targeted with teargas and pepper spray.
Ministers in Paris met to discuss the events before continuing to push responsibility on to Liverpool fans and claims of some 30,000 to 40,000 supporters attempting to access the stadium with fake tickets or no tickets at all.
