Linesman death teams to play again

The football club of a Dutch linesman who was kicked to death earlier this month is to play the team of his attackers again, Dutch media reported Friday. "We will play against each other again," Buintenboys club director Marcel Oost told local radio station Omroep Flevoland. National broadcaster NOS said that the encounter between his club from Almere, just west of the Dutch capital, with Amsterdam club Nieuw Sloten would happen "soon".
Police have arrested eight people, including seven teenagers and a 50-year-old man, in connection with the shock death of linesman Richard Nieuwenhuizen, who was set upon by Nieuw Sloten players on December 2.
