Liverpool has said it is "hugely disappointing" that UEFA's report into the severe security failures that occurred before and after the club's Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid in Paris last May has been leaked.
The governing body's own judgment was leaked on Monday and said that UEFA must take the "primary responsibility" - but the manner in which it has been partially released, without the fans who were affected by the chaos outside Stade de France being notified, has angered club officials.
A Liverpool statement said: "It’s hugely disappointing that a report of such significance, such importance to football supporters’ lives and future safety, should be leaked and published in this way. It’s been over eight months of work by the independent panel and it is only right and proper to publish the contents of the report to our supporters appropriately.
