PSG Ultras' Away Trip Canceled After Violent Clash
25 Apr
Summary
- PSG ultras' away trip to Angers was canceled due to a clash.
- A violent confrontation occurred between supporter groups on the route.
- One vehicle carrying ultras sustained significant damage.
The away trip for Paris Saint-Germain's ultras to their match against Angers was canceled on Saturday after a violent clash erupted between two supporter groups. The convoy of around 800 fans was en route to the stadium when the confrontation occurred near La Ferté-Bernard in Sarthe, forcing the vehicles to turn back to Paris. One of the cars transporting ultras suffered visible damage, including broken windows.
This internal conflict among Paris ultras significantly impacted the planned away support for the game at Raymond-Kopa. The incident preempted the match, which was scheduled for 7:00 PM ET, and leaves PSG playing without a substantial traveling fan presence.
The cancellation occurred amidst a critical period for the club, as PSG also prepares for a major Champions League fixture against Bayern Munich on Tuesday night. The supporter issue has become a dominant part of the pre-match narrative, overshadowing team preparations and squad management concerns.
