UEFA, Man City Reportedly Block Jamie Carragher From Dortmund Away End at Etihad

Reports attribute the refusal to UEFA accreditation limits alongside Manchester City safety concerns.

Overview

  • Carragher walked with Borussia Dortmund supporters from Manchester city centre to the stadium, accepting beers, wearing a scarf and briefly holding a yellow flare.
  • CBS Sports had sought permission for the pundit to sit in the visiting section, but he instead appeared pitchside during the pre-match broadcast with Peter Schmeichel.
  • Outlets reporting the block say neither Manchester City nor UEFA provided an on-the-record comment on the request.
  • Carragher later criticised the Daily Mail’s coverage on social media and referenced the 115 charges case facing City in his rebuttal.
  • Manchester City beat Dortmund 4-1 on the night, with Phil Foden scoring twice alongside goals from Erling Haaland and Rayan Cherki.
