dari berita ini kesimpulan saya :
1. Saat terjadi gol Taddei, fans Roma memprovokasi ke fans United dengan ejekan
dan lemparan2 benda2 dan air
2. Fans United terprovokasi dan membalas ejekan dan lemparan
3. Polisi yg berada di tengah2 kubu langsung bertindak keras dg menghajar fans
United disitu tanpa pandang bulu.., fans Roma terhalang oleh batas terpisah
Semoga kejadian tersebut tdk akan terulang di Old Trafford stadium, mengingat
tempat duduk away di Old Trafford tdk ada pembatas, hanya di jaga oleh para
stewards....

Trouble mars Roma-Utd clash as police wade in
ROME, April 4 (Reuters) - Manchester United fans and Italian police
clashed during the halftime break at the Champions League quarter-final with AS
Roma which the English side lost 2-1 on Wednesday.
Television pictures from Rome's Olympic Stadium showed Italian police
wading in and flailing at Manchester United fans with batons with several
United fans bleeding profusely from head wounds.
The trouble inside the stadium started a minute before halftime, when
Rodrigo Taddei put Roma ahead and the rival supporters started to trade insults
and throw objects from one section of the ground to the other.
One policeman was shown raining blows on a supporter who was lying
motionless on the ground, and the pictures evoked memories of the 1970s and
eighties when crowd violence and hooliganism was rife at European club matches.
A photographer saw one Manchester fan lying on the ground with blood
coming from his forehead. The man was led away from police by other supporters.
A Roma fan who was in the stadium said the police made two charges
against the English fans apparently in response to the throwing of missiles.
By the start of the second half the violence had calmed down.
An official at San Giacomo hospital in central Rome said one United fan
had been admitted with a stab wound to the abdomen.
His condition was not critical but he would have to remain in hospital
for at least one day, he said.
Italian news agency ANSA reported earlier three Manchester fans were
later taken in handcuffs to the stadium's police station.
One of them was described as having a large head wound.
United fans were kept in the stadium for around 90 minutes after the end
of the game before being escorted away.
As well as serious trouble at Italian grounds this season which peaked
with the death of a policeman in Sicily, there was also trouble when Manchester
United fans travelled to France to play Lille at Lens in February.
United had written to their travelling supporters earlier this week
warning them to take extra care from Roma's 'ultra' fans while in the Italian
capital.
