Unforgettable match that of Napoli against Ajax at the Maradona stadium.

Almost for all the Azzurri fans.

Unfortunately, it was not only the Dutch who were disappointed but also a group of supporters of Napoli in a wheelchair.

With the regular ticket for the disabled sector in Curve A they ended up in a position from which they could only see the backs of the "able-bodied" fans.

"We were at the Stadium - says Ciro, one of the disabled children - with a regular numbered ticket, but unfortunately we were unable to attend the match. When we got there we realized that our seat was behind, but not in the last row, it was right. behind all the other fans, we were even after the last row, separated from the others by a plexiglass. The only thing we were able to see were the backs of the other fans who, standing on their seats, were cheering ".


About twenty people with disabilities asked for help in vain from the stewards: "Nobody listened to us, indeed - said Ciro - the greatest mortification and humiliation was when a fan who was standing in front of me, he sent to that country telling me that if I wanted to see the game in a comfortable way I would have to get a TV subscription ".

To ask for justice for wheelchair fans is the association "La Battaglia di Andrea", which has been fighting for the disabled for years.

"If what Ciro said is true, it would be very serious", comments the president of the Asia Maraucci association who asks, for the fans who live in that condition, "a place where it is possible to watch the game.
