Blatant fake ticket lies in Paris – Liverpool FC Roundup

French authorities continue to peddle blatant lies regarding the chaos at the Champions League final in Paris, but fans and journalists are like are not falling for it.

 

Blatant Paris lies

The events surrounding the Champions League final in Paris have grown more horrific by the day as fans recount what they experienced at the Stade de France.

French authorities have, unsurprisingly, looked to lay the blame on Liverpool fans and claimed “between 30,000 and 40,000” supporters had fake tickets or none whatsoever and that caused the chaos.

It’s a ridiculous claim that can be easily debunked, as that number of people who had to have seen turnstiles process around 5,555 tickets – genuine or fake – per hour.

So where did all those people go then if that was even true? French sports minister Amelie Oudea-Castera is doing what everyone in power does, displacing the blame in an obvious cover up.

But that’s not going to stand.

 

3 things from shocking Paris events

  • Alan Kennedy was lifted over a fence at the Stade de France for his safety to avoid a “very frightening” crush, with incredible Liverpool fans helping the legend and many more.
  • Liverpool have now asked fans to share their experiences in Paris to support the investigation of the shocking treatment of supporters.

  • A ‘big bid‘ for Son Heung-min was planned ahead of Sadio Mane exit but Spurs’ Champions League qualification looks to have scuppered any potential plans. He’d be some player for Klopp, mind.
