February 20 – Bayern Munich fans protested against the cost of Champions League tickets by unfurling banners during the first leg of their last-16 tie at Liverpool on Tuesday – backed by home supporters.
Banners at the away end read ‘Away ticket LFC 48£. FCB 55€’, ‘Th€ gr€€d knows no £imits’.
Another said ‘Twenty is plenty’, referring to a campaign launched in England by the Football Supporters’ Federation for clubs to cap ticket prices for visiting supporters at £20.
In 2015, Bayern fans had protested against Arsenal with a banner that read: ‘64 pounds a ticket but without fans football is not worth a penny’, which also received applause from the home and visiting supporters.
