Juve's derby with Torino delayed by an hour after trouble leaves fan in hospital

SPORTS 24.05.2026

Juventus's local derby at Torino on Sunday will kick off at least an hour late for "public safety" after one of the Serie A giants' fans was admitted to hospital following pre-match clashes with rival supporters.

Text size:

Luciano Spalletti's side are one of four teams vying for one of the two remaining Champions League places, but the players were still in the changing room when their top four rivals kicked off their fixtures.

A kick-off time of 9.45pm local time (1945 GMT) was announced, against the wishes of Juve's away supporters, who demanded that the match be suspended after one of their number suffered what local media are calling serious, but not life-threatening, injuries in the brawl.

The announcement sparked anger among Juve fans who tried to abandon the away end and set scarves on fire, putting even the new kick-off time at risk.

The other four matches involving teams chasing the top four or trying to avoid relegation were delayed by around five minutes as the fixtures were supposed to all kick off at the same time.

But the fixtures involving third-placed AC Milan, fourth-placed Roma and fifth-placed Como, who are level on 68 points with Juve in sixth, did kick off despite the Turin derby being delayed.

Two points separate Juve from the Champions league spots heading into this season's final round of fixtures.
