Restaurant owner suffers broken nose defending Man City fans attacked in Naples

Three of the Premier League club's supporters were also injured after they were attacked ahead of Wednesday's Champions League game

Four Manchester City supporters were attacked ahead of their club’s Champions League match against Napoli in Italy, ANSA reports.

The group of fans visiting the city had dined at a restaurant in Via Cesario Console when the exit was blocked and they were approached by a crowd of people throwing objects at them.

They fled the scene and sought shelter in two different restaurants. While this prevented one from suffering injury, his three friends were attacked inside the premises, where a Neapolitan restaurateur, who tried to defend the fans, was also injured.
