The atmosphere surrounding the Champions League clash between FC Bayern and PSG was already emotionally charged hours before kick-off. According to French reporter Arthur Perrot from RMC Sport, there was a violent altercation between supporters of both clubs on the way to the Allianz Arena
According to the report, PSG fans were initially harassed by Bayern supporters in a Munich subway train and were eventually driven off the train. The subway train then had to be evacuated due to a lot of smoke
The police were quickly on the scene and apparently asked the Paris Ultras to leave the station. Videos and pictures of the incident went viral on social media shortly afterwards
