CroatiaAt the stadium in Varaždin, firefighters had to intervene again after several plastic chairs on the southern stand caught fire during a match between Varaždin and Osijek, which ended in a 0-0 draw. According to HRT reports, fans of the Kohorte group set fire to banners and then placed them on the plastic chairs, leading to the flames. Firefighters quickly extinguished the fire, preventing major damage. This incident echoes a similar event from a month and a half ago during a match against Hajduk, where the same stand was affected by approximately 50 burning plastic chairs, some of which were completely destroyed. The police previously reported that open flames, signal flares, and homemade smoke bombs were used, causing additional damage to around 10 more chairs.
