In the Netherlands, fans did not let the team to the match with the ex-club Slutsky

The Royal Dutch Football Union (KNVB) has condemned the actions of De Grafshap fans who disrupted the second-strongest division match against Vitesse, blocking their team's bus and preventing players from entering the stadium.

"People may agree with something or not, but it has gone too far," a KNVB spokesman said, calling the situation absurd.

The game was supposed to take place on Sunday. Vitesse said 17,000 spectators had gathered at the stadium but had to go home.

De Grafshapa fans were previously banned from attending the match. The meeting will be held on a weekday.

The case will be heard by KNVB disciplinary authorities.

In 2018-2019, Vitesse was coached by Russian coach Leonid Slutsky.
