Second night of unrest across Europe as football fans clash with police

Chairs were hurled and torches thrown tonight amid a second night of violence between football fans.

Real Sociedad and Roma fans clashed outside the Anoeta Stadium in San Sebastián, Spain, ahead of today’s Europa League match.

A bus carrying Roma fans was reportedly attacked before the two teams met tonight.

The game ended 0-0, many fans stayed in the penalty area after the final whistle.

Dramatic images show people picking up chairs and police officers stretching out cordon tape to keep fans apart.

At least two fans have been arrested, according to local media.

Local police, the Guardia Civil, helped contain the fighting.

The unrest comes a day after a similar situation in Naples, where Napolo faced Eintracht Frankfurt.

Italian media have reported that German Ultras damaged a number of police vehicles before the start of the game.

Some were set alight, according to pictures taken at the scene.

Videos shared on social media show people in dark jackets, some wearing motorcycle helmets and balaclavas, charging at officers while holding up riot shields.
