Greek law enforcement has embarked on a series of interviews with numerous suspects in relation to the tragic fatal stabbing of a football fan in the vicinity of Athens, just ahead of a scheduled Champions League match this week. The incident, which claimed the life of 29-year-old Michalis Katsouris, occurred during a clash between fervent supporters of AEK Athens and Croatian club Dinamo Zagreb on Monday.
The untimely demise of Katsouris led to the postponement of the anticipated third-round qualifier between the two teams, as announced by UEFA. The match, initially set for Tuesday, has been rescheduled to take place on August 19, allowing time for investigations and safety assessments to be conducted.
