Yomiuri: 10 fans hurt in fight after J.League match
More than 10 soccer fans were injured in a scuffle following a J.League match in Kashiwa, Chiba Prefecture, on Saturday night. The incident took place shortly after 9 p.m. at Hitachi Kashiwa Stadium, after a game in which Nagoya Grampus Eight defeated Kashiwa Reysol 2-0. According to a Reysol spokesman, some Grampus supporters remained at the stadium after the match. A couple of Reysol supporters burst into the Grampus fans' area of the stadium, shaking off security guards and jumping over a 1.8-meter-high metal fence, and were followed by about 50 more Reysol supporters. In the ensuing fight, a Grampus supporter suffered a neck injury and was taken to a hospital. Others were treated at the stadium's dispensary for minor wounds.
