Total Chaos at the Arena: Partizan and Zvezda Fans Clash, Riot Police Forced to Intervene! /VIDEO/

The clashes broke out just moments before tip-off in the section reserved for Crvena Zvezda supporters. A flare thrown by Partizan fans landed among them first, triggering widespread chaos.

Riot police intervened immediately, charging into the stands to prevent any further escalation.

Crvena Zvezda fans briefly retreated from the section before returning shortly after, while law enforcement reinforced the two buffer zones separating them from the far more numerous black-and-white supporters.
