The defeat against Sarmiento further heated the climate in Tatengue. Fights between fans started inside the field and continued with the police in the streets.
The weather in Union was very bad during the match that Tatengue lost 2-0 against Sarmiento in Santa Fe, which kept Gallego Méndez’s team in the relegation zone, and the post match had episodes of violence.
The police had taken preventive measures because they were aware that if the equipment fell, incidents could be generated. It had been prohibited to circulate on Boulevard Pellegrini from López and Planes to the west, in addition to a fence with enough troops. It was not enough.
There were fans and bars that tried to get closer, both from inside the stadium and from outside, to the sector where the leadership was. Which was not a surprise because during the game there were many insults towards the president Luis Spahn. There the clashes began and the police began to repress with rubber bullets.
off the field, there was a fan, very upset, who attacked the camera of Canal Santa Fe, despite the fact that the only thing the worker did was take pictures of what was happening. That individual was one of the 18 detainees reported by the police. In addition, there were five officers with minor injuries, according to the official report.
