Despite a disappointing 1-1 Übiedschieden, which was characterized by the late equalization of the guests in added time, the rapid supporters witnessed violent incidents. After the game, the traveling fans in the guest sector in Bosnia were attacked with stones, bottles and neon rockets by Bosnian hooligans. It was shocking that the police initially remained idle and sealed off the sector, making the Austrian supporters unprotected. Fortunately, there was no panic or greater escalations, such as kosmo.at reported .
The journey of the rapid fans also made itself challenging; They were stopped on the Bosnian border for several hours and were only allowed to continue their arrival 70 minutes before the game started. This resulted in some fans could only present their choreography from the second half. The return trip was also not a sugar, because under the police, the travel convoy was accompanied to the Slovenian border without stopping. On a later arrival in the city, the rapid supporters were exposed to further threats from hooligans.
