A Deportivo La Coruna supporter has died after he was injured when dozens of rival fans clashed near the stadium before the club’s La Liga match at Atletico Madrid on Sunday.
The 43-year-old Depor fan, who was not identified by name, had to be fished out of the freezing Manzanares river near Atletico’s Calderon stadium and suffered cardiac arrest, hypothermia and head injuries, emergency services said.
Hospital sources later said he had died shortly after 2pm local time after failing to respond to efforts to revive him.
Eleven other people were treated for mostly minor injuries, including one female police officer with a fractured hand.
Twenty people were taken into custody and a total of 100 troublemakers had been identified, police said
 

Deportivo are mainly antifa, A.Madrid are mainly fascist, (allegedly) the fighting happened between 8 and 11 o'clock in the morning before the game.
