Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp stated that UEFA's inquiry into the scenes at the Champions League Final must be thorough and truthful.

The Reds and their supporters are waiting to hear from UEFA regarding their investigation of the incidents outside the stadium in the lead-up to the final.

Most Liverpool supporters were late in getting to their seats for the final, as there was trouble outside the stadium.

Many thousands of supporters missed the start of the game, while they were sprayed with tear gas by police.

"A lot of people have had to take back what they said before [about the fans]," Klopp told ESPN.

"Our people are behind it [the inquiry] and want to make sure that we really get the full truth in the end. That will be really important for the future because people shouldn't be afraid of going to a Champions League final.

"In their minds, it should just be excitement and joy, looking forward to it. Not 'how can I get into the stadium?' That shouldn't be part of the preparation.

"We can't change it for this day anymore, but we can change it for all other days. It was a special situation because it was rather late that Paris knew it would host the final, but I think there was enough time.

"Saint Denis, the stadium, they have a lot of events. It could have been better and they know it."
