Liverpool supporters have been cleared of any wrongdoing at last season’s Champions League final – and credited with helping to save lives with their actions.

Thousands of fans descended upon Paris last May to watch their team take on Real Madrid at the Stade de France. However, before the game had even kicked off they were subjected to heavy-handed policing, with tear gas deployed and fans kettled into small areas at risk of causing crushes.

UEFA attempted to lay the blame at the feet of supporters, claims which have now been labelled as “reprehensible” by an independent inquiry. The panel of experts was assembled by UEFA to conduct a thorough investigation into the events which unfolded in the French capital.
