SC Cambuur says nets installed around the away section at its Kooi Stadion prevented fireworks from reaching the pitch or other stands during Saturday’s match against Go Ahead Eagles. The game was abandoned late on at 4-0 after fireworks were set off in the away section, and the KNVB ruled that score would stand.
A club spokesperson told ANP on Sunday that the nets had worked in that respect. Cambuur installed them after an earlier incident involving Feyenoord supporters, in which seven home fans were injured. The club says it also took further measures behind the scenes but has not disclosed what they were.
