This match was halted after just eight minutes when Atalanta fans threatened to riot if play continued despite the death earlier today of a Lazio supporter.

There were brawls outside the stadium before kick-off after news came through that a Lazio fan had been accidentally killed by a police officer's bullet. The tension inside the arena was sky-high, as both sets of supporters repeatedly urged the players to leave the pitch and call off the game, going so far as to throw objects on to the field and try to smash down the plexiglass dividers. Atalanta players appealed to their fans to stop, but they were determined to stop play at all costs.

Another horrible day for calcio. God, why can't this sport we love so much work itself out?

It was a bad idea to even think of going ahead with the match. FIGC could've suspended them all until later in the week. Instead they wind up with egg on their faces.

whats sad is all the little kids they are showing on the broadcast.... just sad and confused.

idiots...yeah, stopping play is going to help what?

Thanks Zlat, I was just waiting for confirmation.

Ridiculous turn of events. Essentially when hearing about this earlier, my understanding was many groups of ultras felt it necessary to have matches suspended (all matches) because the same was done when policeman Raciti died earlier this year. Difference is that death occurred during a match, while this was an incident completely unrelated to actual football matches. Really, enough is enough in Italian football, it's simply shameful. Corruption, violence and scandal are the key words of the Italian game these days, despite the fact that on the football field Italian teams are the ones doing the talking.

This match is suspended and our club has wasted a lot of time and effort making the trip to Bergamo to play the match. Atalanta ultras have prevented the game from continuing and thus this match should be awarded to us 3-0, and any attempts to play it later are nothing but a joke now. If any Milan fans were involved in the violence prior to the match, then I'm simply ashamed of these clowns who have no right to call themselves supporters.

Is it definite Milan fans are involved? Essentially, the crowd trouble outside may have involved Milan fans, but in the stadium the violent acts were definitely at the end of the Atalanta Ultras.

Well said.

Plus, it was as if a fan's death wasn't as tragic as that of Raciti's, and therefore the games should continue as if nothing was wrong.

The EPL eradicated the thugs from the stadiums and look what it's done for them. We need to follow in their footsteps before a player is killed, but unfortunately the FIGC is all talk and no action. I'm still bristling over Catania's spineless punishment of having the rest of their home matches in an empty stadium, when they should've been demoted to Serie B or lower.

Fair point, Bergamo's not exactly a long journey and I said it in anger, but essentially the point is if they replay this match, we've not only lost a week in a busy schedule, but the schedule in the future gets even worse, so essentially, we're now in a lose-lose situation.
