Investigation After Feyenoord Fans Set Off Fireworks at Cambuur - DutchNews.nl
Five supporters were injured when Feyenoord fans set off flares and fireworks, prompting Dutch football officials to review match disturbance rules.
- On Sunday, Feyenoord fans set off a barrage of flares and fireworks during the 12th minute at the De Kooi stadium, injuring five supporters of Cambuur Leeuwarden with burns, hearing loss, and eye injuries.
- Referee Danny Makkelie halted play for approximately 20 minutes before restarting after consulting Acting Mayor Foort van Oosten, explaining the decision reflected "an agreement made between the clubs, not us."
- At least one Cambuur fan suffered an eye injury while others sustained burns and hearing damage; Feyenoord goalkeeper Tjark Ernst remained unhurt after a firework detonated at his feet.
- Following the restart, Feyenoord secured a 5-2 victory; Cambuur, reduced to 10 men after Ole Romney's early red card, suffered their third consecutive loss.
- The Dutch football association KNVB will discuss the incident during its regular review meeting later this week to address whether current guidelines protecting players from fireworks should extend to supporters.
