With just three weeks remaining before the European Championship begins, fresh scrutiny needs to be applied to the competency of the safety measures around matches
Saturday was the last big date at Stade de France before the beginning of Euro 2016, as Paris Saint-Germain met Olympique de Marseille in the final of the Coupe de France. It was meant to provide a final rehearsal before the competition, but turned into a security fiasco.
For the first time, security forces put into place the measures that will be applied during the European Championship. There were multiple security checks, road closures and, most notably, only three entrance points for the whole stadium.
