ROME, Italy - Three Napoli fans received hospital
treatment and one remains in a critical condition Sunday after violence
marred the Italian Cup final between Napoli and Fiorentina in Rome.
Reports from domestic
news agency ANSA said three Napoli supporters suffered gunshot wounds in
clashes before Saturday's match in the Olympic stadium, while another
from Rome was hospitalized with injuries.
The condition of one of
the Napoli fans, a 30-year-old, remained "critical but stable" after an
operation to remove a bullet from near his spinal cord, doctors said.
There have been
conflicting reports of exactly who was responsible for the incidents and
who fired the shots, but with almost 30,000 fans from each club
arriving in a capital already boasting two other clubs, Roma and Lazio,
the potential for violence was high and sadly this proved the case.
