The wife of Liverpool star Thiago Alcantara has detailed the horrific scenes that preceded the Champions League final, revealing that 'bands of robbers' were left to roam free.
The clash between the Reds and Real Madrid was delayed by more than 35 minutes as fans struggled to enter the Stade de France. Some were tear-gassed by French police, with many criticising the response of the authorities.
The families of the players were also caught up in the terrifying scenes both before and after the final. Julia Vigas, Thiago's wife since 2015, was one of those who endured a frightening experience on what should have been a night of celebration.
