According to information, 96 arrests were made.
The horrific events were provoked by Dinamo Zagreb hooligans, who despite a ban on the movement of fans decided by UEFA, the Croats arrived in a phalanx from Zagreb to Athens.
Many reports on social media claim that together with the Dinamo Zagreb hooligans outside the AEK stadium in New Philadelphia, there were also Panathinaikos fans and together they attacked the AEK fans.
