Lazio fans remember Gabriele Sandri at Piazza della Libertà

Lazio fans gathered at Piazza della Libertà on the 19th anniversary of Gabriele Sandri's death to remember the supporter killed in 2007, screening a fan-made short film.

Lazio supporters held a memorial event at Piazza della Libertà on Wednesday, 11 November, marking the 19th anniversary of Gabriele Sandri's death. The fan was killed on 11 November 2007 while supporting his beloved Lazio. The gathering took place at the symbolic location where Lazio was founded on 9 January 1900, which had just reopened following renovation.

The evening featured the screening of 'Libertà', a short film made by Lazio fans. Supporters filled the square with songs, banners and flowers in Sandri's memory, with the message "Gabriele always with us" echoing through the crowd.

Cristiano Sandri, Gabriele's brother, attended and spoke of the pride he felt in the community's enduring love and support, drawing a parallel between his brother's fate and that of Vincenzo Paparelli, another Lazio supporter who died while backing the club.

The club also used the occasion to remember Gabriella Grassi, a historic figure in Lazio's history, recalled by Massimo Maestrelli.
