Marousi (Greece), Nov 15
The Football Supporters’ Association (FSA) has criticised the Greek authorities for the way they conducted their operations at the Athens Olympic Stadium, where England defeated Greece 3-0 on Wednesday night.
The FSA are claiming fans were subjected to extreme measures of ‘using shields and tear gas’ to form queues outside the stadium.
"Unfortunately, once again, we are having to ask England supporters to send in their witness accounts to ourselves regarding the situation outside of the Athens Olympic Stadium.
"Despite being told how things would operate in advance, to see the exact opposite occur in some cases, and to see the treatment of our fans by local police using shields and tear gas to do something as simple as rearrange a queue, is so incredibly frustrating," read the post by the FSA on X.
The FSA further went on to ask fans to report their experiences with the supporters association so they alongside UEFA can work on the betterment of the experience of watching football for supporters across the world.
