Liverpool respond to Uefa investigation on Paris chaos at Champions League final
The Independent says Liverpool have welcomed a report by Uefa that “fully vindicates” the club’s supporters after the crowd trouble that marred last season’s Champions League final.
Uefa’s own review found on Monday that it bore “primary responsibility” for the chaos at the Stade de France in May of last year, admitting that fans of both Liverpool and Real Madrid could have died.
The independent panel’s report rejects claims made by the governing body and French police that thousand of ticketless Liverpool fans had been the cause of issues, stating that the police operation had been “defective”.
