EKO HOT BLOG reports that Naples erupted into celebrations on Thursday night as Napoli secured their first Serie A title win in 33 years. However, the night was marred by violence and tragedy, with one person killed and over 200 injured during the celebrations.
The victim, a 26-year-old man, was reportedly linked to a local mafia clan and was shot during the celebrations. Three others were injured in the same incident, and the police are investigating whether the shooting was related to the football celebrations or if it was criminal activity.
Despite the violence, thousands of fans continued to celebrate in the streets, with many gathering at the Stadio Maradona in Naples and other locations around the city. However, over 200 people were taken to hospital overnight with injuries sustained during the celebrations, including knife wounds, burns from firecrackers, and asthma attacks caused by inhaling smoke from flares.
Napoli’s 1-1 draw at Udinese on Thursday evening secured their third league title, with a record-equalling five games still to play.
The celebrations were a long time coming for Napoli fans, who have waited over three decades to see their team lift the Serie A trophy. The victory is a significant milestone for the club, which has struggled to compete with the likes of Juventus and AC Milan in recent years.
The incident has once again highlighted the problem of violence and hooliganism in Italian football, which has been a persistent issue for many years. The authorities will no doubt be looking closely at the events of Thursday night and considering what measures can be taken to prevent similar incidents in the future.
The violence and tragedy that marred the celebrations in Naples on Thursday night are a stark reminder of the dangers associated with football celebrations. While the excitement and passion of football can bring people together, it can also lead to dangerous and potentially deadly situations if not managed carefully.
The authorities and football clubs must work together to ensure that celebrations are safe and enjoyable for everyone involved.
