Liverpool fans say Champions League final stewards 'bit' their match tickets and didn't scan them

Liverpool fans who attended the Champions League final in Paris have reported that their match tickets were 'bitten' by stewards at the Stade de France.

The final in Paris at the end of May descended into chaos as thousands of Liverpool fans were forced into dangerous crushes as they tried to get into the stadium. Many Reds fans were then attacked and robbed by criminal gangs after the match.

Fans were left angrier at shameless attempts to blame them by French authorities and UEFA. French ministers have been widely castigated for the lies and smears they have attempted to spread about Reds fans. One such comment came from Interior Minister Gerald Darminan, when he claimed that there were 40,000 LFC fans that turned up to the stadium with fake tickets.
