Thread: Shocking moment England fans are attacked by Netherlands supporters

England advance amid ‘absolute disgrace’



This is the shocking moment a group of England fans were attacked by Netherlands supporters ahead of tonight’s Euro 2024 semi.

Dramatic footage appears to show rival fans throwing punches and hurling drinks as tensions rise before the clash in Dortmund, which England won 2-1.
Five fans were hurt and arrests made during the skirmish as Dutch yobs attacked England fans outside a restaurant in the German town.

Tables were upturned an orange shirted attacker was seen hurling a chair as missiles were hurled in the clash outside Sausalitos restaurant and bar in the city centre, The Sun reports.
Trouble flared near the start of the spectacular Dutch “fan walk” to the stadium as tens of thousands of soccer revellers passed the eaterie.
Officials confirmed five people had suffered minor injuries and at least one Dutch fan was caught on camera being detained by riot cops who quickly surrounded the scene.
Another fan was seen hurling a TV inside the restaurant.

It is not yet known what sparked the violent clash. Picture: X
A spokesman for the UK’s Football Police Unit said: “We are aware of some reports and videos circulating of disorder in Dortmund.
“It appears that there have been several instances of Dutch fans attacking England fans in bars and attempting to steal flags.
“We understand this has resulted in minor injuries to five people. We are also aware that in addition to the tens of thousands of Dutch fans there to enjoy the game, there are groups of risk supporters who have travelled to Dortmund from the Netherlands.
“Our officers are at the location supporting German colleagues. We would advise supporters to be aware of their surroundings and seek areas where there is a German Police presence. ”
Restaurant Leo Woeho said: “The Dutch started it after trying to steal an England flag - there was provocation on each side and it got out of hand.
“Fortunately no one was badly hurt.”

Chairs and bottles were seen flying in the air. Picture: X

The brawl saw England fans retreat into a bar to avoid being pelted by glass.
Clips of the clash spread across X, formerly Twitter, with one user writing: “It’s kicking off in Dortmund.”
A similar fight took place weeks ago before England’s Euros curtain raiser against Serbia, which left an English fan with blood pouring from a head wound.
Sources at the scene said a group of yobs appeared to have started chaos in a restaurant near the venue city of Gelsenkirchen five hours before kick-off.
It comes after cops closed in on a crazed axeman brandishing a molotov cocktail near a busy Euros fan zone was caught on camera.
Shocking footage showed the suspect with a golden pickaxe as cops draw their guns and deploy pepper spray moments before his arrest on the streets of Hamburg.
Cops shot the axeman and sealed off the Reeperbahn strip, not far from where thousands of Dutch supporters were gathering to watch their match against Poland.
Police feared he intended to set it off in the middle of the crowd of supporters, according to German news outlet Bild.
A statement from Hamburg Police on X read: “There is currently a major police operation in St Pauli.
“According to initial findings, a person threatened police officers with a pickaxe and an incendiary device.
“The officers then used their firearms.
“The attacker was injured and is currently receiving medical treatment.”
Police say the attack had “no football connection” and the perpetrator was attacking alone at the time.
Meanwhile, shots were heard during the heated Italy-Albania match, leaving a 23-year-old seriously injured.




The man was hit in his leg and arm in the Berlin district of Moabit, as cops armed with submachine guns launched an urgent manhunt for the attacker.
Six shots were fired on Rathenower Strasse, near Turmstrasse, opposite the Tiergarten district court, Bild reports.

I'd like to see football banned. I fooking hate the game.

Seems to be a case of Dutch yobs behaving badly in France.

Unlike the game it looks like 3-0 to The Cloggies.

This....over a sporting event.
Priorities.


All the while their worlds are crumbling from systematic corruption, suppression and societal fantasies. These things should be cause to rise up, not a goddamn football match.

And have you risen up, Jeff?

A bunch of pansies kicking a ball around who flop over if a wisp of hair barely touches them. What a clown show, nice to see some British soccer hooligans getting an ass kicking.

Yeah.... Poor Brits. They have soccer. They sit in the stands and at home and drink and watch them kick a ball around for a few hours cussing and screaming and nobody scores. The game ends up in a tie and they all go home saying "What a GREAT game" and whinge about the Yellow card or the Red card. Then if they make it to the playoffs, yet another game that goes on for 2 or so hours and no score and then its decided by penalty kicks. WAFJ.

They also have cricket, which is the world's most boring sport after golf. It is funny that the world's most valuable sports teams are American, not one British makes the top ten.



Shit sports and the world's worst breakfast.

Never played the game but fell in love with the sport watching players like Billy Bremner and Billy Bonds playing hard but fair soccer without the fairies and imposters that play the game today.

I'll leave it to the experts to sort out the non-playing scum but who is going to sort out the playing scum receiving millions of quid for acting like cheating and anti-social friendly twats???????????????

and what do you yanks have? netball and rounders, copied from the playgounds of uk girls schools ..... only played in macho combat gear by 8ft tall schvartzes.

you silly pooftahs.

This is the most American thing I've ever read.

Though, then there is the real Bsnub, and what he really thinks about football.

And to think Armstrong...I am American. Who woulda of thought it. Eh.

Absolutely. And while I do not support their ridiculously inflated salaries for some, we (America) have a plethora of sporting events to watch year round and they actually score points, there is action and fun and most enjoy it around family and friends and at sports bars. I get it though. Brits only have soccer. They wait for ever to watch their team. Pray that one guy scores a goal as they run around frantically while other players kick the ball away from them. Woooohoooo. And oh yeah... lets not forget extra play where they play on and again do not score.

Well it was patently obvious because you got almost everything wrong in your post.

Now y'all just carry on and have a nice day.

Ohhhh well please do tell?

Do you play for hours and end up in ties at 0-0?
Do you end games in the playoffs by doing penalty kicks while everyone just stands around?
Do you guys whinge about Yellow and Red flags calling it BS when some guy bumps another guy?
Do you watch the game as they basically play keep a way hoping some one isn't off side to attempt a goal?


Sorry Armstrong. Soccer is the most boring game on the planet and to think that people go have a public brawl over a game is laughable.

Head on sown to local 7/11. I think you need a Leo and some snacks...

Play for hours and end in ties? No. If it's over 90mins there isn't a "tie".

End games in playoffs with penalty kicks while everyone stands around? Well not everyone but yes most of them. Much like free throws and, this will fucking suprise you, penalties in sports that Americans seem to prefer.

Yellow and red flags? Like an offside flag?

Yes we watch the game. Not needing it to finish 47-65 just to keep us interested.

..and why would I need a Leo and some snacks? What a weird comment.

The irony of that sentence.


Unfortunately you are too blinkered to see past your overhanging gut.

American Football is padded rugby for fairies.
Baseball Is for rounder for girls
Basket ball is netball for girls

All your food is full of sugar and salt and causes your population to be the most obese on the planet.
Your president is senile and Trump is gonna be elected in November.

Your only saving grace is the humble baked beans, God bless America
