VIDEO: LM final is late! Fans storm the stadium through barriers, Liverpool star’s brother attacked
The Champions League final was scheduled to kick off at 21:00 CET. However, this did not happen because there were major organisational problems when countless fans invaded the stadium and attacked, for example, the brother of one of Liverpool’s stars.
The Champions League final was scheduled to kick off at 21:00 CET. But it didn’t happen, because there were major organisational problems when countless fans invaded the stadium and attacked, for example, the brother of one of Liverpool’s stars.
The football feast for the whole of Europe started a little later than planned. The reason? Not a few organisational problems, where it is obviously not clear whose side the truth is actually on.
A few fans got into the Stade de France stands by climbing over the fence and trying their best to watch the match live from the stands. A more or less chain reaction was set off. If one did it, why not the others?
This delayed the start of the game by over half an hour. UEFA said in a statement that fans who did not arrive in time for the match and then started to storm the stadium were to blame.
However, foreign journalists and media are clear that the fans were definitely not late to the stands. On the contrary, UEFA has come under fire for the lack of people to provide security and organisation.
Apart from Liverpool fans, Real Madrid supporters also tried to get into the stands.
As for the aforementioned lack of security, the brother of one of Liverpool’s stars took it away. Marvin Matip, the brother of Joel, was attacked. He criticised the whole organisation. He said it was not even worthy of a Champions League final.
