Excited fans rushed into the field to threaten to kill players

The match between Foggia and Catanzaro in Serie C took place with a one-way game when the away team soon led 5-1 after just over 60 minutes of play. However, the highlight of the match was the incident from a Extreme fans home team.

In the 63rd minute, Catanzaro continued to enjoy a penalty. Striker Pietro Iemmello was tasked with taking the shot. While preparing, a fan suddenly jumped off the field and rushed to Iemmello’s position to attack him.

The crazy fan jumped up, intending to slap Iemmello in the face but this player quickly dodged it in time. Security staff immediately rushed in, but this fan was still angry and even threatened to kill Iemmello.

It is known that the cause of the incident came from the fact that Iemmello played for Foggia in the period 2018/2019 and had disagreements with the Ultras association of this team.

The match ended with Catanzaro’s 6-2 victory over Foggia. The referee added 10 minutes to the extra time, making the match longer than 100 minutes due to constant problems from the fans.

Iemmello was also substituted in the 75th minute and was quickly moved by the field security staff to the dressing room to avoid colliding with the angry crowd of fans in the stands.
