Milan fans banned

Milan fans will be banned from attending Sunday's Serie A opener at Genoa, despite an appeal from the Serie A side to allow visiting supporters to attend.

A committee has decided that allowing fans to attend would prove too dangerous after heated tensions between both sets of fans which resulted in the death of a fan in 1995.
