This Friday was again marked by incidents during a football match.
These days, these are images that football lovers could do without. Last Sunday, the terrible incidents that occurred around the Stade Vélodrome before the kick-off of the Marseille-Lyon Ligue 1 match (ultimately postponed) tarnished the image of French football.
This Friday, it was on the other side of the planet that deplorable scenes occurred. In South America, more precisely in Brazil. In a legendary place: Copacabana beach, in Rio de Janeiro. While the final of the Copa Libertadores must pit the Brazilian team of Fluminense against the Argentinians of Boca Juniors.
An ambush set by pseudo supporters
While this final must take place in less than 48 hours, the Fluminense Ultras had violent altercations with fans of the Buenos Aires club. Witnesses on site relate a ambush stretched by supposed Brazilian supporters to their Argentinian counterparts.
24 hours before the Copa Libertadores final, Fluminese ultras ambushed Boca Juniors supporters on Copacabana beach. 😬
