GENOA, Italy (AP) — Serbia’s European Championship qualifier at Italy has been stopped after seven minutes of play due to Serbia fans throwing flares onto the field and lighting fireworks.
Serbia fans also clashed with police earlier in the day and delayed the start of the match for 45 minutes. Then when the game finally began, more flares and fireworks were thrown onto the field, and referee Craig Thomson of Scotland stopped the match.
It was unclear whether the game would resume.
