According to the BBC, a Liverpool supporter was hit and pushed by Spanish police, while a Spurs fan was seized upon for allegedly stealing a ticket.

Natalie Pirks, a BBC reporter, tweeted: “Fans are complaining of being turned away, despite having genuine tickets, and police heavy handed tactics.

“One LFC fan was hit and pushed by police in front of me.

“A Spurs fan was apprehended by mounted police for allegedly stealing another fan’s ticket.”

While the majority of fans have safely entered the stadium for the all-English showpiece, others have endured a nightmare journey to the Spanish capital.

Earlier today, hundred of Spurs supporters were delayed for seven hours at Stansted airport.

Mohamed Salah: Liverpool star pictured with Game of Thrones actress Emilia Clarke in New York as Reds attempt to land their own crown

Mohamed Salah was in New York for the Time 100 Gala as he was named one of the world’s most influential people.

The Liverpool forward joined political heavyweights and Hollywood stars on the red carpet.

4

The 26-year-old was chosen as one of six cover stars for the magazine’s annual issue.

Other cover stars included actors Sandra Oh and Dwayne Johnson, US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Taylor Swift and news presenter Gayle King.

He was pictured on the red carpet with Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke, Jimmy Fallon and Rami Malek.

In his interview with the magazine, he discussed the importance of women’s equality.

4

“We need to change the way we treat women in our culture,” the Egypt international told Time.

“I support the woman more than I did before, because I feel like she deserves more than what they give her now, at the moment.

“That has to be, it’s not optional.”

4

In a piece for Time, comedian and Liverpool fan John Oliver said he ‘absolutely’ loved the footballer.

“Mo Salah is a better human being than he is a football player. And he’s one of the best football players in the world,” he wrote.

Salah received the Premier League Golden Boot for the 2017/18 campaign for scoring 32 times, and has so far scored 19 goals for Jurgen Klopp’s table-toppers this season.

He was named this year’s Confederation of African Football’s Player of the Year, having also picked up the trophy in 2018, and he was named both the PFA Players’ Player of the Year and the Football Writers’ Association’s Footballer of the Year last year.

4

Salah, along with his team-mates, will put rivalry aside on Wednesday to cheer on Manchester United against Manchester City. The derby will play a big part on who is crowned Premier League champion at the end of the season.

A win for United at Old Trafford will leave Liverpool two points clear at the top of the table with three games to left to play. City, meanwhile, can reclaim top spot by taking all three points.

Liverpool news: Dean Saunders shocked by Moussa Sissoko penalty decision in Champions League final against Tottenham

Former Liverpool striker Dean Saunders insists the Reds should NOT have been awarded a penalty in the first minute of the Champions League final against Tottenham.

The Welshman sympathises with frustrated Spurs fans and insists Moussa Sissoko’s handball should never have been given by the referee.

The game was barely 25 seconds old when Liverpool were given a spot kick, after Sissoko was adjudged to have handled in the area after Sadio Mane flicked the ball at him.

Mohamed Salah duly gave the Reds the lead but, after two stunning semi-final comebacks and three weeks of build-up, the all-English affair ended up being one of the worst Champions League finals in recent memory.

Not that Liverpool will mind. Their road to the final was a thrilling one and there is little doubt they are worthy champions this season.

Reds fans will ultimately point to the fact Divock Origi scored a second goal in the 87th minute, while Spurs failed to find the net, as proof the victory was deserved.

But the obvious truth is that going a goal down in the opening two minutes effectively ended the contest before it had a chance to begin.

The penalty row has rumbled on days after the cup was lifted, and Saunders told talkSPORT that he was shocked the spot kick was given.

He said on the Final Word: “Obviously I don’t want to take anything away from Liverpool, I wanted them to win the game, but I can’t believe anybody thinks it was a penalty.

“For a start, ‘an unnatural position of your arm’, this law, they’ve got to bin it.

“You use your arms in a natural position to do different things when you’re defending.

“Sissoko is pointing to Tripper and I can actually tell you what’s come out of his mouth from the way he was pointing, he’s saying, show him down the line.

“He’s using his arms as a way of doing that – that’s the way you communicate sometimes as footballers.

“He’s put his arm up in the box to point at Trippier, so his arm is in a natural position to do that.

“Number two, the ball hasn’t even hit his arm! It’s hit his chest and rolled onto his arm – so how is that a penalty?

“Unless you’ve got blind loyalty, I don’t think any Liverpool fan if they were a neutral on a Sunday morning would say that’s a penalty.

“That was never a penalty.”
