( CNN ) -- Three Napoli fans received hospital treatment and one remains in a critical condition Sunday after violence marred the Italian Cup final between Napoli and Fiorentina in Rome . Reports from domestic news agency ANSA said three Napoli supporters suffered gunshot wounds in clashes before Saturday 's match in the Olympic stadium , while another from Rome was hospitalized with injuries . The condition of one of the Napoli fans , a 30-year-old , remained `` critical but stable '' after an operation to remove a bullet from near his spinal cord , doctors said . There have been conflicting reports of exactly who was responsible for the incidents and who fired the shots , but with almost 30,000 fans from each club arriving in a capital already boasting two other clubs , Roma and Lazio , the potential for violence was high and sadly this proved the case . Uneasy standoff . After news of the pre-match shootings filtered through to Napoli 's fans in the Curva Nord ( North End ) , the match was delayed and no official reason given . An uneasy stand off followed between the authorities and Napoli 's ultras -- the club 's hardcore , organized fan group -- who pelted the pitch with burning flares as the match was initially suspended . At one point Napoli 's Slovakian striker Marek Hamsik appeared to remonstrate with the ultras in a bid to calm the situation down before being ushered away . `` These incidents are simply unacceptable , '' said Maurizio Beretta , the president of Lega Serie A , according to AFP . `` We appeal to the fans who are here for the final to treat it as it should be -- an evening of sport and football and not one that should give rise to episodes of violence . '' The match eventually kicked off at 19.45 GMT , 45 minutes late . `` A football match should n't be about battles between two sets of supporters , '' said Italian Senate president Pietro Grosso , as quoted by AFP . `` We 're here to see a final , to enjoy the game in a festive and sporting atmosphere . I 'm saddened to see that this kind of thing is still going on . '' Napoli triumph . After the delay a fine game of football finally broke out . Napoli 's players , visibly effected by the atmosphere surrounding the game , raced out of the blocks and into a two goal lead . Twenty two year old Italy international Lorenzo Insigne , who was born and raised in Napoli , scored twice and could have had a hat trick . But Fiorentina fought back with Peruvian Juan Manuel Vargas and were then denied what appeared to be a legitimate goal that was called offside right before half time . The second half was a much cagier affair as Napoli coach Rafa Benitez , looking for a trophy in his first season at the club , tried to close the game down . Everything had gone to plan for Benitez and Napoli but a second yellow card for Swiss international Gokhan Inler with just over 10 minutes to go set of a frenetic end to the match . But Napoli broke away on the counter attack and Belgian international Dries Mertens made it 3-1 , securing the club 's fifth Coppa Italia success . Barca 's title setback . Meanwhile , in Spain , Barcelona 's hopes of defending the La Liga title suffered a serious setback after conceding an injury time equalizer against Getafe . Lionel Messi and Alexis Sanchez had twice given Barcelona the lead . But on both occasions Angel Lafita scored , his second with only minutes remaining to make it 2-2 . There had been emotional scenes before the game at Camp Nou as a gigantic banner was hoisted to honor Tito Vilanova , the club 's former coach who died last week of throat cancer . The banner read Tito Per Sempre Etern ; Tito , always eternal . A minute 's silence followed . The result left Atletico Madrid in prime position to win the La Liga crown with city rivals Real Madrid also still challenging .
