Greek sport is repeatedly overshadowed by nasty riots. It was not until the end of October that the football match Olympiacos Piraeus against Panathinaikos Athens had to be canceled as a result.
Now it is this poster that is causing another scandal. Not in football, but in volleyball. There were violent clashes between hooligans from the two teams and police on Thursday evening. Several hundred people attacked each other in the hall. At least one person was seriously injured.
More than 400 people arrested
During the unrest, a 31-year-old police officer was hit by a flare. As the hospital in the suburb of Nikaia reports, his life is in danger. According to media reports, the femoral artery was injured.
While he fights for his life, his professional colleagues intensively search for the perpetrator. According to Greek broadcaster ERT, more than 400 people have been arrested as a result.
Football round cancelled
The riots did not go unnoticed in the hall either. So exercising was no longer an option. Those responsible pulled the rip cord and stopped the volleyball game.
But there were unpleasant scenes in Greece not only in volleyball this week. At the beginning of this week, unknown people threatened two referees. The result: The association has decided not to nominate referees for the upcoming round of the highest football competition. The competition therefore had no choice but to cancel the entire round.
