Rioters disrupt Gemert football match, referee stops duel

The post-competition match between VV Gemert and GVVV was discontinued on Thursday evening. The game, for promotion to the second division, was stopped for some time after a fight along the field and behind one of the goals in the sports park in Gemert. According to various reports, members of the hard core of PSV would have been out for a confrontation.

According to chairman Carlo Hazenveld of the football association in Gemert, it was not about people who were involved with his club, he told the Eindhovens Dagblad. He announces that he will take steps against these hooligans.
