Losing 4-0 at home to Seina today, Genoa’s ultras began demanding their players take off their shirts as they ‘weren’t fit to wear them.’ The game was suspended in the 52nd minute when the incensed fans began throwing flares and garbage onto the the pitch, then the call came for the shirt amnesty – with Genoa captain Marco Rossi collecting shirts from his teammates and handing them into the crowd…
The majority of players handed over the shirts, apart from goalkeeper Sebastien Frey and Giuseppe Sculli, the latter having the minerals to stand up to ultras and grab the shirts back so the game could continue.
As far we can tell, the game is about to restart after ‘negotiations’ between the thuggish fans and the terrified players.
