Italian police on Thursday averted
clashes at Rome's Fiumicino Airport between Eintracht Frankfurt
fans returning to Germany after their Champions League loss at
Napoli, Lazio fans flying to the Netherlands for their
Conference League last 16 tie with AZ Alkmaar, and AS Roma fans
flying to Spain for their Europa League last 16 clash with Real
Sociedad, Rome police said.
The Rome police headquarters said that upon the arrival of the
Germans at the Roman airport, the security detail prevented the
various groups of ultras, with the Lazio supporters heading to
the Netherlands and the Roma supporters to Spain, from coming
into contact.
The supporters of the two Roman teams, the police added, "wore
dark-coloured clothing to disguise themselves in case of
clashes".
