Perugia-Ascoli, the postponed match of the 29th day that will take place at the Curi stadium next Monday at 20.30, is a match that now risks suffering some serious consequences. restrizioni. The match, as we all know, will also be broadcast live on Rai Sport, and probably many people will have to follow it on TV from home given the measures that could be taken in the next few hours by the competent authorities to avoid the risk that, during the scheduled match, serious events like those that occurred on Sunday along the A12 near the Versilia service area, located between Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi, could occur again. Here a real guerrilla between the tifoseria red and white who was returning from Chiavari and the Lucchese fans who had attended the match played at home against Sestri Levante. The consequences of the above-mentioned events could end up having an impact in some way also on the Ascoli fans, through a new imposition of the Fan card against the Picchio supporters that would significantly slow down the presence of the black and white people in the away sector of the Curi at a time when the team coached by Cudini seriously needs the support of its fans. The Police union intervened on the issue.

"Once again criminals disguised as fans have staged a urban warfare blocking an entire stretch of highway for hours with smoke bombs and firecrackers. From the first reconstructions - explains Domenico Pianese, secretary of Coisp, in a note - a group of Umbrian ultras, headed to Chiavari, waited for the arrival of those of the Lucchese, headed to Sestri Levante, to trigger a real ambush. The clashes quickly moved from the service area to the highway lane, paralyzing traffic and terrorizing motorists in the queue. It is not yet clear whether the two factions met by chance or whether an appointment was agreed to settle 'old scores'. The arrival of the Police, then, caused all the ultras to disperse quickly, even if the stretch of highway remained closed for some time, to allow the removal of smoke bombs and debris".
