Fan of Atlas hits Tigres supporter at Jalisco Stadium

Once again, the fans of the rojinegro team are involved in controversy due to acts of violence in Mexican soccer, as reported by a social media user who showed the moment when a fan of the Atlas team attacks another person wearing a Tigres jersey from behind.

A video is circulating on Twitter from an Instagram story titled "qué buen sape", where a man wearing an Atlas jersey waits for a Tigres fan who is heading towards the stadium exits at Jalisco Stadium during the eighth matchday where the felinos defeated the rojinegros.

After measuring the situation, when the Tigres fan has his back turned, the Atlas fan delivers a strong blow to the head and then flees and hides among the rest of the rojinegro fans who did nothing about it.

"Until when will Liga MX allow Atlas to remain in the first division? They are trouble after trouble. They have the most primitive fans in the league. A couple of matchdays ago there were gunshots outside of Jalisco Stadium. We have the precedent of Querétaro and it could continue," said the person who reported the incident.

Other incidents involving Atlas fans

It is worth mentioning that a part of the Atlas fan base is considered one of the most violent in Mexican soccer, as they have been involved in disgraceful acts throughout their history. Some of the most remembered incidents include the invasion of the field to attack their own players after a defeat in the Clásico Tapatío against Chivas.

Another notable incident was the violent confrontation at the Estadio Corregidora against Querétaro fans, which left several seriously injured and is considered one of the darkest days for Liga MX, resulting in a one-year ban on the home stadium of the Gallos Blancos and several arrests.
