Release
After an interview with Iltalehti, HIFK published a news release on its website.
This is how HIFK reported
We judge all disturbance behavior at HIFK match events. Going to the audience field and breaking the integrity of players are unequivocally incorrectly. The field is part of the players and the safety of the event, both for players and viewers, is the most important thing.
We will determine the events after the second goal of HJK/Kantsu in detail. We have already discussed with supporters and HJK/Kantu representatives and the dialogue continues. We make sure that the same thing will no longer happen.
We will carry out the necessary follow -up to the case once the case has been thoroughly investigated.
