Fans explain "tragic accident"
While the death of a Parma fan run over by Juventus supporters is clarified, there are reports the game could be rescheduled for April 16.
The Serie A game was called off this afternoon as a sign of mourning and amid fears of crowd trouble after 27-year-old Matteo Bagnaresi was killed at a motorway service station outside Turin.
The exact dynamics are still hazy, as there are two different versions of events. Some eyewitnesses claim the driver was looking in his mirrors to check the chasing Parma supporters were not closing in and therefore did not notice Bagnaresi crossing his path.
Another version given by a friend of the deceased insists it was a tragic accident and had nothing to do with football.
“Matteo was near to the rear tyres of the minibus and was hit when it went into reverse. The driver did not see or realise what had happened.
“We tried shouting at him to stop, but he was probably afraid and thought we were threatening him, so he drove off.”
According to witnesses at the motorway service station, there was no physical contact whatsoever between the two sets of fans.
All there was before the driver got into the minibus was an exchange of verbal insults.
The game was called off to avoid potential reprisals and passed without further incident at the Stadio Olimpico in Turin.
The date for the rescheduled tie will be decided tomorrow, but is likely to be Wednesday April 16.

no, I'm talking about what happened today.
The guy was an ultra who just got back from a 3 year ban.
The guys surrounded a bus with some Juve fans and wanted to get in. The driver got scared and didn't see that he ran over the guy.
Some Juve fans were quoted saying "They were trying to kill us..."

He actually never went to school. He worked at his dad's grocery store abot 200 meters away from the "accident" . A Juve fan stole 3 cans of pepsi from his store so he ran after him , when the Juve fan got on the bus he yelled " give me back my pep...." and the bus driver "accidentally" ran over him .
Pepsi is sueing Coca Cola for hiring that Juve fan to eventually give Pepsi bad publicity .
