Fans Hurl Flares Onto Soccer Field


Recommended Posts

That was a shame. It will be interesting to see if they punish Milan in similar fashion as they did to Roma in the first round by banning fans. Granted, Inter was the home team but I'm sure the supporters were pretty even numbered considering both teams use the same stadium. Of course, it was probably the Inter fans who did it in repsonse to the disallowed gaol. Truly a shame. They need to start searching people before they enter and not let them bring flares anymore. It's getting ridiculous.

Another reason the match was stopped is because Dida, the starting and best goalkepper for AC Milan was hit by an object/flare. There is a 95% chance that the game will stand and/or maybe they will give each team a goal to make up for the lost time, which means Milan will still win on aggregate. They probably won't make them play another game simply because at 73min, Inter needed 4 goals to go through to the semi-finals and it wouldn't be fair to replay another game when Inter only had 17+min left to score those 4 goals. I like that photo as well...

By the way, if you live in Canada and want to see this match; tune in @ 12:00AM EST tonight on TSN (CH30 on Cable). I am going to :)

Yeah, I saw the highlights, after the live Chelsea game, here in London, England. Inter definitely need some sort of sanction for basically getting to the stage where fans are completely allowed to bring in flares into matches. It was just asking for trouble, really. The thing is if it had been an English team who did that, they would've been thrown out of the competition straight away.

Had this happened at a football game....you wouldn't hear the end of it about lack of security et al.

Course....football fans outside of Philly aren't that nuts.

Uefa may kick Inter out of Europe

Uefa will decide on Friday what action to take after crowd trouble forced the Champions League quarter-final between AC and Inter Milan to be abandoned.

Inter could become the first club to be kicked out of the Champions League after burning flares were thrown on the pitch - one hitting AC Milan's Dida.

Thats quite harsh but what else can they do, I hope the Liverpool - Juventus game is ok

:rofl: In Philly they just wait til after the game and shoot you along with your family  :pinch: jk :)

We prefer beer bottles, snowballs, and batteries as our weapons of choice, thank you. Perhaps flares should be used this upcoming season.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.
    • Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
