Napoli Fan Stabbed by Wife After Team's Loss

A 40-year-old Napoli fan was stabbed by his wife in a bizarre incident following his team's 2-1 loss to Atalanta Bergamo on Sunday in the 26th round of the Italian Serie A. The incident occurred after the fan began hurling insults in protest against the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) decision to cancel a penalty. This led his wife to believe the insults were directed at her. According to the 'Football Factly' account on X, the 35-year-old wife became angry, thinking the insults were meant for her. The argument escalated quickly, with the wife first throwing scissors at her husband before grabbing a kitchen knife. It was reported that the Napoli fan was stabbed in the side, and several knives were later found at the scene. Police intervened and arrested the woman, while the victim is now in the hospital in stable condition. The woman is in custody.
