Share

West Ham fans have been involved in running clashes with Eintracht Frankfurt supporters ahead of their Europa League last-16 tie against Sevilla on Thursday.

Footage on social media appeared to show a number of Frankfurt fans marching towards West Ham supporters outside a bar after their team’s Europa League match against Real Betis on Wednesday night before both sets of fans threw bottles and chairs.

Despite only getting an official allocation of 3,000 tickets from UEFA, West Ham manager David Moyes stated on Wednesday that up to 10,000 Hammers fans were expected to go to the Spanish city for the first leg of the club’s Europa League last-16 encounter.

One Eintracht Frankfurt fan was arrested, according to police in Seville, according to reports. There were no arrests among West Ham supporters.
