There were plenty of British a$$holes causing fights, attacking people, and just being drunk idiots leading up to the match itself. Why are they not called hooligans? Before the match, they booed the Russian anthem and burned Russian memorabilia - including flags. Now I don't know that much about the Russians, but I'm pretty sure it's a very nationalistic country. I'm sure there were regular families in their stands but there were also plenty of drunk motherfukkers looking for a fight. Seems to me like the Brits are just p*ssy and got worked by a much smaller group of people. Talk shyt - get hit.
Believe everything you see in the media brehs...
The Russians have literally been training for this since the draw. TRAINING. Their hooligans are often ex-military types or have that sort of training. That's why none were arrested, tactically retreating like it's war. If you think sneak attacking unsuspecting drunk people with weapons then running away is working someone then fine.
Leading up to the game, Marseille ultras were attacking England fans then running away to let the carnage ensue between police/england fans.
Now i'm not for one second saying a minority of England fans aren't bigoted retards, I've met plenty.
But if someone punches you in the face and throws glass bottles at your head what are you meant to do? Let it happen?
You got any evidence of this flag burning? Or are you another taken in by reports from fake twitter journalists that the russian media picked up and ran with despite it not being true. They said we were chanting anti-russia songs, about putin etc, we don't give a fukk about Putin it was complete fabrication/a terrible attempt at satire.
I'll give you a fact though, one like it's confirmed Russian fans racially abused England players.
The firework was a signal that the security could be breached/a signal to attack. This has been in the making for a long time for these no-life having thugs.
These dikkheads even wore English club shirts to make it look like England fans. Another fact.
