Benitez: Atletico switch unfair on Reds fans

Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez has blasted the late switch in venue for his side’s Champions League clash with Atletico Madrid, claiming it is unfair on the club’s fans.

The Reds were due to face Atletico at their Vicente Calderon stadium next Wednesday, but the Spanish club have been ordered to play at least 300 kilometres away from the capital as a result of crowd trouble during the match with Marseille on October 1.
