The newspaper Algemeen Dagblad is among the media reporting on the horrific injury to a PSV supporter. Ahead of Sunday’s match at home in Eindhoven against Sparta Rotterdam, the supporter held a blaster in his hand which exploded and caused nasty injuries.
Images circulating on social media show the man holding the explosive over his head before it explodes in a loud bang. Soon after, blood gushes out and you can see that the man has very likely lost one or more fingers.
According to Dutch media, the man must have thought he was holding a so-called “blinker”, but it turned out that it was a bang shot that emits an explosive bang.

The accident must have happened outside the Philips Stadium and the loud bang must have caused fatal injuries, the police confirm to Algemeen Dagblad.
So-called snap shots are illegal in football arenas.
The victim of the accident must have been quickly transported to a hospital for treatment.
PSV won the match against Sparta Rotterdam 4–2 and secured the league gold in the Eredivise.
