Liverpool fans have been exonerated for the chaos at the 2022 Champions League final by a French senate report, which stated supporters were “unfairly blamed” by the minister of the interior in order to “divert attention from the inability of the state” to safely stage the event.
A provisional reporting of the findings from the event instead put the responsibility on “major shortcomings” in intelligence; transport routes for supporters; insufficient communication; and issues going further back in terms of basic planning.
