The fans of Croatia's champion, known as "Bas Blue Boys," walked through the streets of Milan on the way to the stadium while raising their right hands to perform the well-known Nazi salute.

"Absolutely abhorrent. Dinamo Zagreb fans performing the Nazi salute in the streets of Milan. The world of football must free itself from fascists and carriers of hatred, a hatred that from soccer fields spreads to the squares," EJC posted on Twitter.

In addition to glorifying Nazism, Dinamo supporters also fought with Milan fans both before and after the game. One Dinamo fan got stabbed in the buttock.

The 2nd round Champions League game ended in Milan beating Dinamo 3-1.
