Last night’s match between Italy and Israel, played at the Bluenergy Stadium in Udine, took place in a decidedly surreal atmosphere and not very suitable for the context of a football match, taking us back to a war scenario.
Yes, because among the various security measures adopted by the organizers of the match, to guarantee the absence of accidents, the presence of some snipers on the roof of the stadium was also foreseensharpshooters ready to intervene in case of emergency. A scenario that explains well the sense of danger around every Israeli match and the state of alert of the event. In Udine, in general, yesterday we saw blocked streets and closed shops, with the deployment of law enforcement everywhere. In the end the day went smoothly anyway.
Snipers monitor the match #ItalyIsrael.
