UEFA was widely blamed in a scathing report in February into security failures at Stade de France when Real Madrid played Liverpool last year. The changes seemed to be working in Istanbul. Fans traveled on a warm, bustling but calm day to the 72,000-seat Atatürk Olympic Stadium in the western suburbs.
