Champions League: Reds supporter attacked by Roma fans

A Liverpool supporter is said to be in critical condition after being attacked by AS Roma fans prior to the Champions League first leg semi-final encounter in Anfield. Reports state that two men have been arrested in connection to the assault and have been booked for attempt to murder charges. The man from Ireland has suffered a severe head injury.

In poor light
Both clubs condemn the incident

Both clubs released an official statement condemning the horrific incident. The Italian club, in its statement, claimed that some fans behaving abhorrently have brought shame to the club. Liverpool have stated that the club's thoughts are with the victim and his family. The club has also been liaising with emergency services since the ghastly incident, which took place on Tuesday.
