| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] During a mass brawl at a regional German football league match between the Berlin club Dynamo and the Energie team from Cottbus, 155 police officers were injured. This was reported by Bild on May 5, citing a representative of the law enforcement agency. It is clarified that the match, which took place on May 4 in Berlin, was suspended in the first half because of Dynamo fans who began to set fire to Energa scarves and flags, and also throw stones at the visiting coach Klaus-Dieter Wollitz. As a result, a fight broke out, which the police dispersed with dogs and tear gas. Most of the law enforcement officers involved in dispersing the fight - 116 people - were injured by tear gas, 28 as a result of attacks by fans and another 11 by pyrotechnics. As Regnum reported, on April 22, in Colombia, a hooligan threw a knife from the stands at Atlético Nacional football player Pablo Seppelini during the 18th round match of the national championship against Independiente Medellin. The knife hit the player in the head, after which he fell and the referee suspended the match, which, after providing assistance to the victim, was completed with the consent of the football player. On April 12, the Union of European Football Associations opened a disciplinary case against the Spanish team Barcelona due to the Nazi salute of Catalan fans. Fans used Nazi salutes and made monkey gestures during the Champions League quarter-final match between Barcelona and PSG. |
