PARIS: Up to 60,000 Liverpool supporters, most without tickets, thronged Paris on Saturday , turning avenues and cafe terraces red in their team's colours ahead of the Champions League final against Real Madrid.

The ticketless red-shirted Liverpool supporters packed into a fanzone - with a capacity for 44,000 fans - set up in the east of the city where the match will be shown on giant screens later. "What a wonderful way to finish the season, lifting the European Cup," Dalglish told the crowd which stretched back along a tree-lined avenue."Look by yourself, we've taken over all of Paris!" Rohan Sood, 22, from London, told AFP."It's a crazy atmosphere everywhere we go we see Reds. Even without tickets it's worth it so much."

Tomas Piatraszkiewicz, 43, who lives in Bournemouth on England's south coast, said he had no choice but to come to Paris once his beloved Reds had qualified for the final.
