Sport: Tottenham Fan Beaten After Mistaking Him for a Chelsea Supporter
A Tottenham fan, Michael Voller has been left with a broken cheekbone, eye socket and skull after being attacked by a fellow Tottenham follower who mistook him for a Chelsea supporter.
Voller was set upon in a “violent and unprovoked assault” following a FA Cup semi-final clash between the two London clubs at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.
The incident took place outside the Moore Spice Restaurant on Engineers Way at around 7.30pm, with the victim reported to have been identified by a group of Spurs fan walking in the opposite direction.
Voller has been discharged from hospital following treatment, but police say there are still concerns as to possible permanent damage to his eyesight.
Detective Constable James Robb, of Brent CID, the investigating officer, said: “This was a violent and unprovoked assault that has left a young man with some terrible injuries that could end up affecting him for the rest of his life.
“This kind of violence has absolutely no place at a football match, and I sincerely hope that those who were with the person responsible do the right thing by Michael, who is a fellow supporter and has supported Tottenham since he was a young boy.
