Unprecedented scenes that reached the point of causing… a diplomatic episode took place after the finale of her match Alkmaar vs Legia Warsaw (1-0) for the Conference League.
After the press conference, the players of the Polish team started to board the coach to leave the stadium. But even though not everyone had boarded, the police decided to “seal off” the stadium, for fear of incidents at the time of departure of the away fans. This resulted in players Pavel Vzolek and Bartos Sliz not being able to leave to board the coach, as well as president and owner, Darius Mioduski;. Despite their protests, the authorities were unconvinced and the Poles complain that their behavior was rude and aggressive. They report that they pushed the team’s caretaker away, while there is video showing the president being punched by a masked police officer.
THE Josue and Radovan Pankov they went to the defense of the president and their teammates and the authorities put them down under arrest. Initially the two players returned to the coach, but the police insisted on arresting them and after handcuffing them, took them to the ward where they remained for hours. The police wanted to arrest the president as well, but this did not happen. Legia came towith contact even with the embassy looking for a way to free the two players, but to no avail at first, due to the lateness of the hour. When contact was finally made, the embassy, ​​despite its best efforts, found the Dutch police adamant. The fate of the two players will be known on Friday morning, as they are likely to be charged with assault and resisting the authorities and remain in custody in the Netherlands until further notice.
