EUROPA LEAGUE Pitched battle in Seville between Eintracht and West Ham ultras

Radical fans of Eintracht Frankfurt and West Ham got involved this Wednesday in a pitched battle that left significant damage on the terraces of Paseo de Colón, one of the downtown party spots in the capital of Seville. In addition, an ambulance had to travel to the place to attend to several injured by the altercation.

The coincidence about 10,000 fans of both teams, 3,000 Germans and about 7,000 English (most of the latter without tickets) It was peaceful for most of the day but it led to incidents after the German ultras returned from the match that their team won (1-2) at the Benito Villamarín, already at night.

UEFA decided to move the Betis match to Wednesday so that the two matches between the Sevillian teams did not coincide on Thursday, but the damage has not been avoided. After the 3,000 tickets he gave to West Ham sold out and knowing that many fans would travel without seats, Sevilla decided to put the tickets behind the goals at 9,999 euros except for its partners.
