Violent Clashes Erupt Between Genoa and Inter Milan Fans

Violent clashes erupted between Genoa and Inter Milan supporters outside the Luigi Ferraris Stadium ahead of their Italian Serie A showdown, creating scenes of chaos and heavy security intervention. According to reports, the unrest started more than an hour before kickoff when a group of hardcore Genoa fans targeted Inter supporters with fireworks and various projectiles as they made their way to the away section, prompting an immediate escalation in tensions and concern for public safety around the stadium.

The situation intensified when Inter fans attempted to break through the security barriers separating the two groups, forcing police to step in swiftly to prevent further violence. Law enforcement deployed tear gas to disperse the crowds and restore order, leaving several supporters injured or affected by the gas. Once calm was re-established, authorities confirmed that a car, multiple motorcycles, and several containers had been completely burned, even as both clubs proceeded with their match preparations amid heightened security measures.
