Unfortunately, it was THE scene of the Bundesliga weekend! Rapid's fans got into a fight with the police in Hartberg and caused a real scandal. In the middle of it all, Hartberg's president Brigitte Annerl stepped in and seemingly fearlessly approached the rioters! Ms. Annerl, what were you thinking? 

There are moments when you would probably rather flee. Rapid fans suddenly attacked police officers before the start of the game in Hartberg and went on the rampage in the stadium in eastern Styria. There were eleven injuries (including nine officers) and the police also reported four arrests.
