Paris police publish pictures of FAKE tickets that caused chaos at Champions League final as French minister blames 'thousands of Liverpool fans with counterfeits' who 'forced entry and assaulted stewards'

Parisian police have published pictures of the fake tickets that allegedly caused chaos at Saturday night's Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid.

It came as the French interior minister blamed 'thousands of British "supporters" without tickets or with counterfeit tickets' for the horrific scenes outside the Stade de France.

Kick-off was delayed by 36 minutes as a dangerous situation developed outside the Stade de France in Paris as thousands of Liverpool fans were crushed and teargassed by police.

UEFA initially blamed supporters arriving late at the stadium for the shambolic scenes at entrance gates but later attributed the issues to fans trying to gain access with fake tickets, which caused delays.
