Genoa fans 'silent' for 43 minutes in honor of bridge victims


But nearly 20,000 fans remained quiet for 43 minutes to honor the victims of the Morandi Bridge collapse as Genoa's football team returned to action on Sunday for the first time since the tragedy earlier this month. After 43 minutes the names of the victims of the August 14 catastrophe were displayed on big screens to rapturous applause and from then on fans returned to their usual vocal support. Banners showing solidarity for the bridge collapse victims adorned the Luigi Ferraris stadium in Genoa. Unified Korea's Ro Suk Yong and Thailand's Kanokwan Prajuapsook go up for the jump ball during the women's basketball quarter-final match between Thailand and Unified Korea. Though Warrington are the fourth most successful club in Challenge Cup history -- having won the competition eight times -- the Dragons were never overawed.
