Champions League final: Skirmishes between police and Inter Milan fans at train station
A skirmish between Munich police and Inter Milan fans broke out on the platform of the Universitat subway station in the city around 5.20pm local time. Munich's U6 line is struggling to deal with the volume of fans travelling from the city out to the Allianz Arena. Supporters of both clubs are getting frustrated at being unable to board trains. We have just witnessed half a dozen police officers in riot helmets with batons chase Italian fans up the escalators at Universitat. Those fans came back ten minutes later, some of them with metal bars, at least one of which was thrown at the police. They responded with pepper spray. The train is stuck in the station and packed with fans.
