On Sunday evening, AEK fans were in high spirits after their team achieved a significant victory against Levadiakos, winning 4-0 and maintaining their position at the top of the Super League. However, one young fan faced a tragic and unfortunate incident when he attempted to ignite a flare outside the Allwyn Arena. This took place during a match that was being held behind closed doors, with supporters gathering outside to support their team led by coach Nikolic.

The 23-year-old fan's attempt to light the flare resulted in a severe explosion, leading to the partial amputation of several fingers on his right hand. Following the explosion, he was rushed to the 'G. Gennimatas' hospital for emergency medical care, but despite the immediate response, he could not avoid the serious consequences of the accident. The incident raises concerns about the safety measures in place during such gatherings, especially when passionate fans congregate outside stadiums.

While the match itself was a source of joy for AEK supporters, this incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers associated with the use of pyrotechnic devices in crowded situations. As investigations may follow to determine the causes and accountability, it highlights the need for better regulation and education about the safe handling of such items among fans attending sporting events.
