Nine Real Sociedad fans injured in clashes with Lazio ultras


 

Nine Real Sociedad fans were injured in central Rome during clashes with Lazio supporters on the eve of Thursday’s Europa League match between the two teams, police said.

About 70 Spanish supporters were attacked by around 80 Lazio supporters in Via Leonina, near the Colosseum, at about 11pm local time (10pm GMT) on Wednesday, a Rome police spokesperson said.

Six of the nine people wounded were taken to hospital, and four were discharged overnight. Of the two still hospitalised, one was in critical, but not life-threatening condition, police said.

Attackers used blunt objects and knives, police added, releasing a picture of weapons presumed to have been used, including a hammer, sticks and batons, wrenches and a chain.

The attackers fled as the police arrived, the spokesperson said.
