Swedish football is excited after the bad scene.
The attack by a fan of IFK Gothenburg on a player of Östers Växjö causes great excitement in Swedish football. The fan had climbed over the advertising gang in the 0-1 defeat in the first division duel on Thursday evening and had hit Sebastian Stark Hedlund after Växjös-the 30-year-old was just able to duck away and was not injured.
“At first I didn’t notice that he was after me. I looked in the other direction, then I quickly turned around and saw that his arm was above me. Fortunately, I was able to duck away,” said strong hedlund on Swedish television at SVT.
The victim could not understand that the game was continued despite the serious incident after a long interruption. “I was really angry and disappointed,” said strong hedlund. His team -mate Vladimir Rodic talked hard. “That was a shame,” said the Montenegrin, according to Aftonbladet: “Incredible, dirty. A crazy decision.”
Meanwhile, the incident also triggered discussions about security in the stadiums. IFK Secretary Head Jonas Arlmark expressed the personnel staffing of the law enforcement officers in the stadium: “But I want to consider it a individual event. There is always something to learn and we will look at it.”
Arlmark also confirmed an advertisement against the perpetrator from the police, which “most likely” also expected a ban on stadium.
