Chaos Delays the Start of the Turin Derby
The final round of the Italian league witnessed chaos after the hardline ultras groups of Juventus refused to let the team enter the field to face Torino in the derby.
According to reports, Juventus players were directly pressured by the fans during the warm-up period, with repeated attempts to persuade them not to play the match, which led to the postponement of the match's start until further notice.
All final round matches were scheduled to start at a unified time of 9:45 PM to ensure the principle of equal opportunities among clubs in the race for European competition qualification.
Due to the delay in the start of the Juventus vs. Torino match, the Italian league had to give the green light for the rest of the matches to start after a wait of about ten minutes, with matches including Milan against Cagliari, Hellas Verona against Roma, Lecce against Genoa, and Cremonese against Como.
After a one-hour delay, the first half of the match began moments ago.
These events come after a fan was injured in the head and transferred to the hospital.
