A Liverpool fan has told a harrowing account of terrifying scenes before and after Saturday's Champions League final in Paris and said Liverpool fans protected his son amid the chaos.
Jonathan Flynn and his 14-year-old son, who watch Liverpool home and away, said they have never experienced anything like the situation around the Stade de France on Saturday. French authorities and police have been heavily criticised for their chaotic handling of the match, which left Liverpool fans in a dangerous and extremely tense situation.
Jonathan, who is 48 and from West Yorkshire, provided a detailed account of the difficult experiences faced by Reds fans both before and after the game. He said: "We got out of an Uber outside the Stade de France. When we got to the ramp to get up to the stadium it was heavily guarded by French police. The ramp was similar to something you would see at Wembley.
