Paddy Pimblett Recalls Terrifying Champions League Final Trip, Machete-Wielding Gangs Robbed Liverpool Fans

"You just had to try and get away from the ground but people were getting pinned to the floor and getting their watch taken off them."

'The Baddy' was also caught up in the melee outside the ground and fans were tear gassed as well as pepper sprayed.

Football's governing body have since apologised to both Liverpool and Real fans for being put through 'frightening and distressing events'.

"Even before the game, I saw a few tickets getting snatched, people running away with tickets," Pimblett continued.

"Obviously, getting in was bad with the police tear-gassing everyone.

"The little sections we had to get through to the ground was ridiculous, they were squashing thousands and thousands of people in between little gaps, and when we asked the police what was going on they were just laughing at us.

"As I say though, I’ve never been so scared for my own safety and the people around me as I was when I came out of that ground on Saturday night.

"I saw people with machetes running around. The only thing I can compare it to is the movie The Purge where you can do what you want for 12 hours. There was no laws for 12 hours you could do what you want."

Pimblett then declared he'd never return to the stadium or the city of Paris again.

"I’d never go back to that stadium ever again.

"I’ve said I’ll never go to Paris with the Mrs. They say it’s a romantic place but after that, I’ll never take her there."
