Title: Bomb threat at Bernabeu stadium
Post by: Whits on Sunday, December 12, 2004, 21:14:04
Spectators were evacuated from Real Madrid's Bernabeu stadium on Sunday following a bomb scare during the game between the hosts and Real Sociedad.
More than 70,000 people abandoned the ground with the score at 1-1 and only two minutes left to play.

The Basque newspaper Gara apparently received a telephone call saying a bomb was due to explode at 2100 local time.

The Basque separatist group ETA has issued similar warnings before a series of small explosions in recent days.

Real took the lead just before the break when Brazilian striker Ronaldo cracked home with his left foot.

Sociedad levelled the match midway through the second half when Turkish striker smashed home with an acrobatic finish.

It was not immediately clear if the result of the match would stand.

Madrid midfielder Guti told private Spanish radio station Cadena Ser: "I have never seen this before and sport should be above it all."

The Bernabeu was targeted by ETA on 1 May, 2002, when Madrid were about to play FC Barcelona in a Champions League semi-final.

A car bomb exploded in a street outside the stadium and 17 people were slightly injured.

Real to finish match on Jan 5.  They're gonna play the final 6 mins in a few weeks.

I wonder how many fans will turn up.

What happens if some of the players are injured in the mean time.

They should keep it as a draw.
Hope the game will be live on tv.

Maybe if a few of them get blown to bits then the racism might calm down a bit?

A bit strong maybe, but still....
