i'm really sorry for this guy and wish him a speedy recovery. but i don't know how connected this is to the match... ok he was wearing his liverpool colours but it sounds like this was a gang out to rob the guy and nothing else. i've heard stories before about armed muggings in bulgaria around hotels. crims and that kind of general scum always gather where theres something to be had.
fingers crossed that this is the only incident involving any of ours OR milans supporters though.
