.
Spanish police madeik;l;ll;l;l;l;ll; 24 arrests at last count following the brawl in Madrid between four sets of ultras ahead of Atletico's 2-0 win over Deportivo, with one man in his 40s rushed to hospital after allegedly being hit on the head and thrown into a river.
He was unable to be resuscitated after suffering a cardiac arrest and it was confirmed after the match that he had died, which the Liga de Futbol Profesional (LFP) claims it tried to call off after realising the extent of the violence nearby the Vicente Calderon.
The Atletico chief executive was unrelenting in his criticism of the Atletico hooligans who had played their part in the death of a fellow football fan and suggested anyone who was involved in the fighting on Sunday will be barred from attending games indefinitely.
"In a group of 4,000 people there will always a motherf****r," Marin told reporters.
"These kind of criminals and murderers are hidden in the mass of people. They seize every opportunity to appear. What they have in their head is garbage.
"Atletico Madrid have banned 13 people for life for other, much-less-serious incidents. Those involved shouldn't be at Vicente Calderon ever again, they should be in jail.
"The most important is to determinate who is behind all this. I have friends with their sons who live in the area [where Atletico ultras Frente Atletico are located] and they are healthy people.
"The criminal have to go to prison and we are asking that anyone who knows anything to notify us. This incident hurts all of the work we done during recent years."
Police in Spain claimed over 100 hooligans had been identified as having been involved in the fighting in Madrid, which left at least 24 people injured.
