Munich police presence to beef up for final

By: Radio Sport staff | Latest Football News | Friday May 18 2012 10:17

 

Police in Munich will be beefing up their presence for Saturday's Champions League final between Bayern Munich and Chelsea, but say security plans will not be affected by crowd trouble this week in Germany.

Around 2,000 police will be deployed in and around the Allianz Arena, in the city centre and at sites where thousands of fans are expected to gather for live match screenings.

Police spokesman Wolfgang Wenger says crowd trouble this week at two relegation-promotion playoff games will not have any bearing on police security planning.

Around 30,000 Chelsea fans are expected in Munich for the match and German police have been in close contact with their English counterparts in planing security for the game.
