ROB DRAPER EXCLUSIVE: Chaos at the Champions League final in Paris was triggered by a technological meltdown, an investigation by The Mail on Sunday can reveal.

I hate to see heartache but, if a picture paints a thousand words (as Bread sang laboriously . . but in a way that hangs around and haunts you . . endlessly) .
then maybe one perspective could be that
That main picture consisted of:-
* an whimpering kid in the foreground (poor lad) - covering his face,
* an adult male to the r/h side (implies father & son?) - also covering his face,
* a big bloke stood behind them - wearing a warm hood over his head, on a hot day, with dark sunglasses on and also covering his face.
To some, this may appear to be a totally constructed photograph, carefully selected, or indeed put together, to make a story out of nothing.
One line of thought could be; why, in a search for heartrending father & son type imagery (out of all the hundreds of digital photographs taken by each and every photographer at the event), should they choose to present an image of 2 people covering their faces like bandits?
And also, why does the big bloke stood behind them have his face covered, why does he have a hood over his head when everyone around are wearing T shirts? Why is he wearing dark sunglasses when his eyes are already shaded by his hood?
I don’t do conspiracy theories and I’ve not got a stake in the fight, so I’m more interested than arsed about the outcomes, but it just looks a well dodgy photo to me.
