Liverpool have called on Uefa to “fully and transparently” implement the recommendations made in an independent report on the events before last season’s Champions League final.

Fans were penned in and teargassed outside Paris’ Stade de France before the match between Liverpool and Real Madrid on 28 May 2022.

The report ruled Uefa bore “primary responsibility” for the chaotic scenes.

Liverpool said “positive and transparent action” must be taken “to ensure there are no more ‘near misses'”.

The club added the “fundamental safety failings” had “exacerbated the suffering” of the families, friends and survivors of Hillsborough.
