Liverpool FC fans have been praised for their heroic actions pulling fellow supporters to safety amid ugly scenes outside the Stade de France last night.
LFC fans went to the aid of their fellow supporters as the Liverpool end became blocked by thousands of people. The disturbing scenes outside the stadium ahead of the Reds' Champions League final saw fans wedged together and French police using pepper spray on supporters including children and families.
In a public statement last night UEFA said the issues were due to "thousands of fans who had purchased fake tickets". But Merseyside Police praised fans for their "exemplary" behaviour at the stadium.
