Liverpool's Metro Mayor along with an MP and fan groups have hit out at the "shambolic" leak of a long-awaited UEFA report into the Champion's League Final.
UEFA set up a panel of experts last summer to investigate the poor treatment of thousands of Liverpool fans who travelled to the Champions League Final against Real Madrid on May 28, 2022. Fans outside the Stade de France were tear-gassed by riot police, crushed when trying to enter the stadium, and mugged by armed gangs of locals.
The group has now finalised it conclusions, with the 158-page report being leaked to a number of media organisations, not including The ECHO, before it was finally released this evening (February 13). Steve Rotheram, Liverpool's Metro Mayor, said the way the report was leaked to the press was "shambolic".
