Police had to intervene after hundreds of Liverpool fans without tickets mixed with fans with tickets and tried to sneak into the Stade de France

The start of the Champions League final had to be postponed 37 minutes later, “for security reasons”, UEFA ordered that the match could not start at 9 p.m. as hundreds of Liverpool fans tried to enter the Stade de France without tickets and prevented fans with seats from occupying the stands.

Faced with the organizational chaos, riot police had to intervene, using tear gas, to disperse the violent people who mingled with supporters with tickets and tried to sneak into the stadium at the entrance doors. Several of them managed to bypass the security device, which was overwhelmed. Given the difficulties in locating fans with and without seats, the match between Liverpool and Real Madrid could not start until 9:37 PM.

Artist Camila Cabello didn’t go out to perform at the Stade de France until 9.24pm, while Real Madrid and Liverpool footballers and fans of both teams attended the events stunned with disturbing images outside the Saint-Denis venue.

The organizational chaos caused by the problems caused by England fans trying to enter the stadium illegally caused an unusual delay in a Champions League final, changed from before the first whistle. There were also fights between fans and police in the minutes before the game started.
