Champions League final a 'shambles' says NI Liverpool fan

Saturday's Champions League final was a "shambles", a Liverpool supporter from Northern Ireland has said.

The Paris match - which Liverpool lost to La Liga Champions Real Madrid - had its kick-off delayed for 30 minutes.

Uefa, European football's governing body, cited "security concerns" for the delay, claiming thousands of fans tried to enter the stadium with fake tickets.

Neil, 52, from Ballyclare, County Antrim, said he has never experienced anything like it at a football match.

"It was horrendous for everybody, nobody enjoyed a moment of it and someone needs to be held accountable," he told BBC Radio Foyle.
