The DNHL also warned that several hundred English supporters would try to force their way through the barricades and doors and called for vigilance.
According to French Interior Minister Gerald Dormann, 30,000 to 40,000 Liverpool supporters were in the arena without proper tickets. The match was delayed by 40 minutes due to confusion at the entrances and many valid tickets never arrived.
