BUENOS AIRES, (Reuters): Armed Racing Club fans stopped a player in the street and threatened to shoot him in the legs if their team failed to win their next game, a team mate who witnessed the incident said.
Giovani Moreno and Federico Santander had just pulled out of Racing Club’s training ground in their car when another vehicle pulled in front of them and forced them to stop, Santander said.
Two men got out and threatened Moreno with a gun.
“They told Gio they would shoot him in the legs and would ruin his career,” Paraguayan Santander told a radio interview late on Tuesday.
