There have been chaotic scenes reported at the Champions League Final in Paris tonight (Saturday, May 28). Fans have reported that tear gas has been deployed outside the Stade de France.
The clash, between Liverpool and Real Madrid, saw football fans caught in travel chaos at the Port of Dover yesterday. In Paris, a lack of organisation was being cited as the issue, as outside the stadium long queues formed.
The stadium announcer confirmed at 8.46pm local time – 14 minutes before kick-off – that the start of the match had been delayed. Liverpool players re-emerged to warm-up at 9.06pm local time – six minutes after the scheduled kick-off.
