Stand collapses as Vitesse fans celebrate win

Stand collapses as Vitesse fans celebrate win

Vitesse fans avoided a catastrophe on Sunday when part of the stand collapsed as they celebrated their side's 1-0 win at NEC.

The players made their way to the away of the Goffertstadion end to cheer along with the supporters when the front of the stand gave way underneath them.

Despite the collapse, no injuries have been reported and fans continued to celebrate the victory in the Gelderland derby.

The enthusiastic fans moved to the front of the stand as the Vitesse players approached following the win in the Eredivisie match.

The structure snapped under the weight but the fall was stopped by a container, which NEC general director Wilco van Schaik believes may have prevented a much more severe outcome.
