The Netherlands is drawing a particularly strict line regarding fireworks in football stadiums from now on. Matches in the Eredivisie and Keuken Kampioen Divisie will be stopped immediately if fireworks are thrown onto the pitch or land in another section of the stadium. The decision was made following the recent incidents at Cambuur-Feyenoord and FC Utrecht-Go Ahead Eagles.
The decision was made after a serious incident.
This decision was made after visiting fans threw explosive devices during the Cambuur - Feyenoord match last month, injuring several spectators who suffered burns, eye injuries and hearing damage.
The Dutch Minister of Justice and Security, David Van Weel, told the AD media on Friday that matches in the Netherlands would be systematically interrupted in the event of fireworks and the use of smokers. This decision follows in particular the incidents in the gallery at the Cambur-Feyenoord match on 23 August.
