During the Madrid Derby, some extreme fans threw lighters into the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium, causing the match to be temporarily interrupted. Atlético de Madrid has released a statement. The details are as follows:
The club’s security department is cooperating with the police to identify the individuals involved in the incident at the derby stadium last Sunday. The identities of two individuals have now been confirmed, and like the previously identified individual, they will be permanently expelled from their membership in the club. The investigation is ongoing, and as more individuals are identified, the club will also permanently revoke their memberships.
Club Atlético de Madrid once again condemns these unacceptable actions, which have seriously damaged the club’s image. We reiterate the club’s zero-tolerance policy towards violence and will continue to press charges for similar behaviors and take internal disciplinary measures against those involved.
