Several teams from the Mobile Department of the State Police arrived on the spot and surrounded and barred the road for the Cagliari citizens and brought in an urban transport bus to escort the Sardinian supporters safely towards the stadium. About 250 Pisan fans, who came from the streets of the Porta a Lucca district, in turn attempted to attack the Cagliari supporters, but the police managed to keep them away with lightening charges. The throwing of stones and bottles caused 3 injuries among the personnel of the Mobile Police Department joint reinforcementmoreover, a smoke bomb caused the partial combustion of the front plastic grille of a vehicle of the State Police. Thanks to the timely intervention of the various police forces (State Police, Carabinieri, Guardia di Finanza and the Municipal Police for road conditions), there was no physical contact between the opposing fans.
