He real Madrid issued a scathing statement against UEFA in which it announced that “it has decided not to cooperate with the limited compensation scheme promoted by UEFAwhich we ask to be corrected and take full responsibility”, after continental football’s highest body announced that it would refund money for tickets to fans who suffered incidents before the final of Champions celebrated in Paris in between Madrid and Liverpool on May 28.
He Madrid it also announced that it will enable a telematic assistance service in the coming days “so that all members and fans of real Madrid who suffered any kind of injury in the final of Champions League 2022 in Paris may assess appropriate claims against UEFA in defense of their legitimate personal interests”. The Madrid entity argues that “it considers the proposal of UEFA consisting exclusively of the payment of the price of the tickets”.
The white club charges hard against the UEFA whom he held accountable as the organizer of the altercations that took place before and after the final, where supporters of both teams were victims of robberies in an ill-equipped police force. He Madrid refers to the independent report made public by UEFA in February. The independent commission that conducted the investigation concluded that it was “amazing that no one was killed” during the incidents.
“This report”, pointed out Madrid“UEFA is responsible for the arbitrary choice of the venue and for the organization of the final itself, whose serious deficiencies endangered the safety and physical integrity of the fans who attended the match. Many of them were victims of ticket thefts and personal effects such as bags, phones and wallets. And to make matters worse, some of these fans suffered physical assaults that required medical attention and hospitalization.”
“The content of the report, requested by UEFA itself, shows that all the fans who attended the final were victims of its poor organization and saw their safety and physical integrity compromised,” the statement added.
“The fact is that all the fans suffered an unacceptable delay in the start of the match, in addition to the unacceptable lack of security in accessing the stadium and in their evacuation, with additional serious injuries such as thefts, assaults and threats,” said the club’s note.
