The winning club of the European competition underlines attacks by his supporters around the stadium. “Many supporters were assaulted, harassed, robbed and robbed with violence. Some of them had to spend the night in hospital because of the beatings received”write the leaders of the Merengues, further darkening the table of victims after what must have been a great party.
Madrid residents are demanding “answers and explanations” on two specific points through this communication. “We want to know what are the reasons that motivated this designation as the venue for the final and what criteria were taken into account in view of the events that took place there”they begin before asking that those responsible be determined “which left the fans whose general behavior was exemplary helpless”.
A new snub for the French authorities who continue to point the finger at a “massive fraud” with counterfeit banknotes. “What should have been one big football celebration for all the fans who attended the game turned into a series of unfortunate events that caused deep outrage around the world”summarizes the club with fourteen titles in the Champions League.
