Fascist fans set the tone for Bayern's opponents Lazio Rome. The spirit of nationalism and fascism in the fan curves is by no means a thing of the past.

Lazio fans marched through the host city before the cup game at AC Milan with a banner that read “Glory to Mussolini” The racist chants and calls for “Duce” (leader) Mussolini during the game were almost a logical and sad consequence. Bayern fans will particularly remember these attacks before the Champions League game in Rome.
