Referee halts Feyenoord-Inter Champions League game after fans fire flares on
to field
ROTTERDAM, the Netherlands (AP) --- The Champions League game between Feyenoord
and Inter Milan was interrupted on Tuesday after home fans, disappointed with
their side losing, fired flares that landed on the pitch and on the roof of the
De Kuip Stadium.
Inter, like Feyenoord on three points ahead of the game, went ahead early with
a first European goal for defender Yann Bisseck.
Italy's 21-year-old forward Pio Esposito headed the second goal later in the
first half and Piotr Zieli?ski made the final score 3-0 with a long-range
strike after 54 minutes.
It was the signal for the home fans to rain the flares on to the field, forcing
the referee to stop the game for about two minutes and give officials a chance
to clear the playing arena.
Inter's victory helped it bounce back from a 3-1 loss to rival AC Milan in
Serie A on Saturday, while Feyenoord is set to be punished by UEFA for the
behaviour of its fans.
