The Spanish club then explains that the finding revealed UEFA’s responsibilities “Regardless of whether the fans managed to enter the stadium or made it in time, which is due to the good behavior of the fans of both teams, the fact that all the fans experienced an unacceptable delay in the start of the stadium There was also an unacceptable level of insecurity both on arrival at the stadium and on departure, as well as additional damage such as theft, assault and threats.”
