A Spartak fan was the victim of an attack: a drum with the club's symbols was stolen

In Moscow, near the Lyublino metro station, an attack occurred on a 22-year-old fan of the Spartak football club, Stepan. The young man was the victim of four unknown assailants dressed in black, one of whom was wearing a medical mask. The attackers beat Stepan and stole his drum, decorated with the symbols of his favorite club.

The incident occurred after a football match between Spartak and Zenit from St. Petersburg, in which the Moscow team was defeated with a score of 1:2. Disappointed with the result of the match, Stepan left the stadium and headed home, unaware of the impending threat.

According to Stepan, he immediately understood the attackers’ intentions, but was unable to avoid the attack because of the drum, which prevented him from escaping. After several blows, the young man stopped resisting, and the attackers fled the scene of the crime, taking the drum with them.

Stepan contacted the police with a statement about what happened. According to him, although the drum is not particularly expensive, it is of great value to him personally and to the Spartak fan movement. There is an assumption that Zenit fans who wanted to take possession of the symbolic trophy could be behind the attack.

The police have launched an investigation into the incident. The event sparked discussion within the football community about tensions between fan groups and the need to ensure fan safety.
