Liverpool believe it was a misunderstanding that saw supporters told to take down banners protesting against UEFA during the Champions League defeat to Real Madrid at Anfield.
A number of flags criticising the governing body for their attempts to blame Reds fans for the chaos at last season's Champions League final in Paris were on display during Tuesday evening's round of 16 first leg, which Real won 5-2.
However, it later emerged at least one supporter was told by stewards to take down a banner, which prompted an angry response inside the ground and subsequently on social media after the match.
