The defeat in the last game of the season brought a fan of FC Aberdeen to the palm so that he threw a seat shell. Later a player was bleeding his team.
After the final whistle there were unsightly scenes in the Scottish Dundee: A fan of FC Aberdeen caused a sensation during the last game of the season in the Premiership – with serious consequences. A thrown seat shell hit his own player Jack Mackenzie on the head. The defender was injured.
Previously, Aberdeen had lost the game at FC Dundee 1-2 and had fallen back to fifth place in the table. While home fans stormed the field after the final whistle and supported supporters of the guest team, a seat part suddenly flew through the air. It was apparently intended for the Dundee fans-however, Aberdeen’s substitute Mackenzie met.
Aberdeen’s team manager Jimmy Thelin found clear words: that was “unacceptable and must not happen”. Mackenzie still had to be medical care on the lawn. A blood -soaked association testified to the impact.
As the BBC reports, the police are now investigating. She called witnesses to provide image and video material. Spicy: The throw came from the “Fair Play” grandstand.
Even before the kick -off, the encounter as a risk game had been considered. Only a limited number of Aberdeen fans was allowed to arrive-in response to incidents in the previous duel between the two teams. At that time, objects on Dundee coach Jim Goodwin had been thrown.
“I left the field as soon as possible because we already had problems with the Aberdeen fans,” said Goodwin on Saturday. The Scottish Premier League then spoke of “idiotic behavior”.
