Liverpool fans tear gassed – Champions League final
France’s sports minister says Liverpool fans without valid tickets caused the initial crowd problems at Saturday’s Champions League final in Paris.
Amelie Oudea-Castera blamed a “mass gathering” of supporters with “fake tickets” for the chaos at the stadium.
But she said local youths trying to force their way in made things worse.
Liverpool fans criticised the French police response. UK Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries described the scenes as “deeply concerning”.
French police have been criticised for firing pepper spray and tear gas. This at some Liverpool fans as they waited to get into the stadium on Saturday evening.
