It was due to chaotic organisation and bottlenecks at entry points. Many fans were tear-gassed by the French police, while UEFA initially blamed &lsquo;late arrivals&rsquo; and &lsquo;ticketless supporters&rsquo; in their statements which was later widely condemned as inaccurate.<\/p><p>An independent review later concluded that UEFA bore &lsquo;primary responsibility&rsquo; for the near-disaster. The governing body has since apologised. However, it seems the scars remain fresh among Liverpool fans. They view the anthem as a symbol of UEFA&rsquo;s failures and disregard for their safety. Booing it is their way of making sure the incident is not forgotten.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/harry-kane-sets-new-champions-league-record-surpassing-david-beckham\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Harry Kane Sets New Champions League Record Surpassing David Beckham<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Tradition of Protest for Liverpool Fans<\/h2><p>The boos have not been confined to Anfield.
