Gary Lineker has confirmed that he is caught up in the chaos outside Stade de France before Saturday night’s Champions League final.
The meeting at the stadium, on the outskirts of Paris, was supposed to get underway at 8pm GMT but the kick-off was delayed by 30 minutes as thousands of fans were unable to enter the stadium. A number of fans began tweeting in the hour before kick-off that huge queues meant they were unable to enter the ground.
The large queues formed shortly after the Liverpool team bus was caught up in traffic. The Liverpool end was noticeably patchy less than half an hour before kick-off as supporters struggled to get in with multiple fans caught up in the queues sharing photographs of locked gates of the stadium, with a bottle-neck of fans building up around the streets.
