Finally a little humanity.
Supporters of Sevilla FC – whose club will face Lens this Tuesday evening (6:45 p.m.) on the last day of the Champions League groups – received good news from their club. In a press release sent to Sevillians traveling in the North and that the editorial staff of SoFoot has obtained, Sevilla FC announces that despite the prefectural decree prohibiting Andalusian supporters from traveling to Lens, they can still “ take advantage of the tourist opportunity offered to them »all in “ remaining discreet “.
Better yet, the club claims that the Lens police assured, during a meeting with UEFA on Monday and another this Tuesday to organize the meeting, that they were not going to “ make no arrestsnor impose the sanctions published in the various government decrees “. The club however recommends waiting for the final decision of the Council of State, “ far from the center of football attention », and to go to Arras or Lille, rather than staying in the surroundings of Lens. Still according to our information, Andalusian supporters have until now remained locked in their respective hotels, for fear of being apprehended. The sanctions set out by Gérald Darmanin and the prefectural decree which followed effectively take effect from 10 a.m. this Tuesday, and extend until 3 a.m. Wednesday.
