Overview
- Officers intercepted rival radical groups around 10:30 in Huerta del Rey and dissuaded a confrontation through identification and control.
- Identified Sporting supporters had their tickets confiscated, were escorted to their cars by UIP units, and their return to Asturias was monitored.
- Authorities counted roughly a hundred radicals from both clubs, with sanction proposals to be filed only for those carrying aggression-related material.
- Police reported only isolated incidents requiring the use of batons, and the match at José Zorrilla went ahead without mass confrontations.
- Emergency services logged a sighting of about fifty masked Sporting supporters near the Cúpula del Milenio and, roughly half an hour later, an assault on a 38-year-old in the area with no confirmed link to the fans.
