During the return match in Istanbul, three men attempted to lift the heavy pole and, with considerable effort, managed to throw it over the barrier separating the fans.

According to Dutch media, one of the 'Feyenoord' supporters was struck in the head by this pole while trying to alert the police about dangerous objects being thrown over the barrier.

After the incident, the victim suffered severe concussions and a broken arm, and according to reports from the Netherlands, was unable to work for two months after the match.

A police spokesman told the local television program 'Opsporing Verzocht' that the victim continues to suffer from 'terrible headaches, cannot tolerate bright light, and cannot drive.'

Three suspects were not arrested during the match, but new video footage of them appeared on Dutch television this week, and police hope to identify them.

The men are suspected of attempted murder.
