There was mayhem inside the Stade Velodrome last night as Russian fans
attacked English supporters after England's 1-1 draw with Russia. The
build-up to the Euro 2016 clash between England and Russia had been
marred earlier on Saturday
by violence in France but despite widespread global condemnation, the
violence continued after the final whistle of the match last night. See photos below
After
Russia's Vasili Berezutski's late header cancelled out England's Eric
Dier's superb free-kick to ensure the game ended level, Russian fans
broke past stewards and charged towards England supporters, and fighting
ensued leaving stadium security clearly
overwhelmed.
The violence was quickly
condemned by UEFA and the European football governing body are set to
launch an imminent probe into what happened.
