Standard fans have reportedly been pelted by dead rats during a Belgian league game on Sunday after Standard Liege won 3-1 against Charleroi on Friday.
Fans have reported on social media that a dozen dead rodents painted in red were thrown at Standard fans.
"We hope that the Pro League will take action, that our club will file a complaint, and that the animal associations will get involved," said a Standard Liege fan on Facebook.
"Hooded spectators in rat-catcher outfits threw these rats towards a stand occupied by families and people with reduced mobility," another Standard fan told Belgian television.
