UEFA Charge Liverpool And Sevilla For Crowd Trouble





UEFA has charged Liverpool and Sevilla for crowd troubles at the Europa League final.


Rival supporters clashed before kick-off at St Jakob-Park in Basel, after some Liverpool fans obtained tickets in the non-segregated Sevilla end.

The Spanish club, who won 3-1, sold only 7,000 of their 9,000 allocated tickets, with Reds fans appearing to fill three quarters of the stadium.

Liverpool also face a charge for "setting off of fireworks".

Sevilla, who play Barcelona in Sunday's Copa del Rey final, also received a charge for "throwing of objects".

This case will be dealt with on 21 July.
