UEFA's president has admitted that the fan experience for the Champions League final was 'not perfect' as he spoke of the criticism received from Manchester City fans for the first time.
City beat Inter Milan at the Ataturk Stadium, Istanbul, on June 10, however many of the 20,000 or so Blues fans have complained over the poor conditions for supporters throughout the final experience. With the stadium located miles out of town, fans had the option to take the only metro line that served the stadium or make their way by road - either on UEFA-provided shuttle buses or individually.
With traffic problems on that single highway from the centre of Istanbul to the Ataturk Stadium, many fans had to get out of taxis and walk along the side of the road to the ground, while there were multiple reports of shuttle buses taking hours to even leave the stadium car park after the game.
