FA CEO apologises for Wembley chaos at Euro final: Must never allow this to happen again

A review conducted by Baroness Louise Casey of Blackstock stated it was "clear we were close to fatalities and/or life-changing injuries for some, potentially many" of the fans in attendance after 17 mass breaches of Wembley's gates.

The Football Association (FA) CEO Mark Bullingham apologised to fans on Friday for the "terrible experience" during the European Championship final between England and Italy at Wembley, after an independent review said it was a "near miss" of fatalities.

The July 11 final, won by Italy in a penalty shootout, was marred by clashes between supporters and officials in and around England's national stadium, with hundreds of ticketless fans breaching security cordons.
