It is to be noted that around 400 ticketless Eintracht Frankfurt supporters reached Naples on Tuesday (March 14) via train, from Salerno, and arrived at ahotel next to the one where their team was placed. This isn't the first time such an incident took place as the situation went out of hands during the first leg as well. Back then,fans of both teams squared off against each other, in Frankfurt, with police having labelled that game as high risk.

In a statement, Frankfurt director Philipp Reschke said: "About 150 Napoli fans came and attacked ours (at Piazza del Gesu). Then it was set in motion. It ended in a relatively long confrontation with a lot of pyrotechnics. It seemed a bit like that was where the groups that were looking for each other found each other. We saw a burning police vehicle. The police themselves could not say who had started it."

After winning the first leg 2-0, Napoli defeated Frankfurt 3-0 in the second legwith Victor Osimhen striking twice and one goal from Piotr Zielinski.
