A Liverpool fan has revealed he was sat next to Champions League final streaker Kinsey Wolanski during the match between the Reds and Tottenham.
Peter Beaumont told the Mirror he was paid by her boyfriend to film the stunt which halted play shortly after Mohamed Salah gave the Reds the lead after scoring from the spot following a Moussa Sissoko handball from a Sadio Mane cross.
According to the report the 36-year-old, a scaffolder from Cheshire, attended the game with six of his mates and was positioned next to Miss Wolanski who told the group of her plans as Jordan Henderson lead Jurgen Klopp’s side out before kick-off.
Mr Beaumont said: “We all looked at each other thinking the same thing, ‘Who the hell is this?’ I got chatting to her, and my pals were teasing me after, thinking I was hitting on her.
“So when she told me she wasn’t really there to watch the match, but to streak, I think my mouth nearly fell open, to be honest.
“She pulled her dress aside to show me her bikini and I didn’t want to stare. When she told me she was going to run on 25 minutes into the match I said, ‘Don’t take your clothes off if Liverpool have possession though.’
“About ten minutes into the game, she disappeared, probably looking for a way on to the field, and came back to give me her phone. She said, ‘Make sure you get a good shot’. I stood on the seats and my pals jeered.”
Once Miss Wolanski had been led off the pitch, Peter met her boyfriend later that evening - Vitaly Zdorovetskiy. They reportedly went for a drink and were met by Kinsey after she had been released.
Vitaly said that Peter “was a legend” before handing him €150 (£130), adding to the memories of seeing Henderson holding the European Cup aloft after Liverpool’s 2-0 victory over Tottenham.
