UEFA has blamed the chaos surrounding the Champions League for fake tickets.
But there seems to be great skepticism about what the original ticket was.
A friend told me his ticket was fake but it came from me and the club and I can guarantee it wasn’t, Liverpool defender Andy Robertson told the BBC.
This year’s football match in Europe came with a bitter taste.
The chaos surrounding the Stade de France and especially around the entrance to Liverpool led to a 40-minute delay in the match. Police used tear gas and after the match, fans and media pointed out the poor organization and small entrances.
For its part, the European Football Association (UEFA) indicated that the large numbers of fake tickets in circulation caused problems at the turnstiles.
“Before the match, the turnstiles in the Liverpool stands were blocked by thousands of fans who bought invalid tickets and did not work. It created a waiting list for fans to come, which also meant that we postponed the start of the match by 35 minutes.”
A version that raises questions, among others, of Liverpool defender Andy Robertson.
“It should be a party”
– That (event) was a disaster. A friend of mine was told his ticket was fake but it came from me and the club and I can guarantee it wasn’t.
I think sometimes people invented things and panicked. He told the BBC that the use of tear gas against people was unacceptable.
His family was present.
– It was horrible for our fans and all the families who have been through this. There is no pleasant experience, there is no good conclusion to the experience. The Champions League is supposed to be a party but it wasn’t.
