Liverpool ‘hugely disappointed’ after independent review into chaotic scenes at last season’s Champions League final were leaked LFC
UEFA bears ‘primary responsibility for failures’ which almost led to last season’s Champions League final becoming a ‘mass fatality catastrophe’, an independent report says.
It made damning reading for European football’s governing body and the French authorities – while completely exonerating the behaviour of Liverpool fans for whom UEFA’s blame for arriving late and delaying kick-off was ‘manifestly inaccurate’ and French officials claimed had thousands of forged tickets.“The panel has concluded that UEFA, as event owner, bears primary responsibility for failures which almost led to disaster,” the report said.
The report suggested UEFA marginalised its own safety and security unit ahead of the event, which was switched to Paris late on after Russia invaded Ukraine and was stripped of hosting the final in St Petersburg. “Assertions that late, ticketless supporters were either the primary cause or contributed to the dangerous events have a particular resonance with Hillsborough, where similar allegations were made … and persisted for decades before being comprehensively disproved.
“It’s been over eight months of work by the independent panel and it is only right and proper to publish the contents of the report to our supporters appropriately.
