SARAJEVO (Reuters) - Around 40 people, among them 17 police officers, were injured when football fans clashed with police after a 1-1 draw between Sarajevo and Siroki Brijeg late Wednesday, local official said Thursday.

One person was killed in violent clashes between fans of the sides in October, when the match was played in the southern town of Siroki Brijeg and Srajevo supporters had hoped for a victory in memory of their friend, Vedran Puljic.

“You betrayed us,” supporters shouted at players and club management after the game ended. The players managed to escape safely from the stadium.

Fans then clashed with security and police who tried to stop them from damaging the stadium. (more…)
