- Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi issued the order after a Digos report was reviewed by the National Observatory on Sporting Events, which had suspended its own assessment pending his decision.
- The clashes on October 18 in Pisa involved about 200 Hellas Verona ultras and several dozen Pisa supporters, and police used tear gas to disperse the fighting.
