Lazio Fan Gabriele Paparelli Calls on Roma to Make Statement Condemning Attacks

Gabriele Paparelli, son of unforgettable Lazio fan Vincenzo, called on rivals Roma to make a statement after Giallorossi fans again mocked the death of his father after the recent Derby della Capitale, in a post on his Facebook page earlier today.

Vincenzo Paparelli was tragically killed by a flare thrown from the Roma stand during a Derby della Capitale match in 1979. Since then, his family have often been the victims of disgusting and unforgivable comments by small sections of the Roma fans, mocking his father’s death.

Gabriele Paparelli posted on Facebook asking Roma to make an official statement condemning the actions, saying:

The Paparelli family is waiting for AS Roma.
