[Saba Sports News] According to UK media reports, clashes broke out between Feyenoord and Aston Villa fans before a recent UEFA Europa Conference League match. For this match, approximately 3,000 Aston Villa fans traveled to the Netherlands. Unpleasant scenes erupted outside the stadium before the game, with fights occurring between fans of the two clubs. Reports indicate that five local individuals were arrested following an incident outside an Irish pub. Videos circulating on Twitter show groups of people dressed in black rushing into an area, with the sound of breaking glass audible in the background. In another video, the uploader stated: “My son and I were looking for a bar. We approached this one but felt the tension and decided not to go in. Then the fight broke out. This is the video my son recorded.” This video also shows a large gathering of people, seemingly dressed in black and intent on fighting, who eventually dispersed when police arrived. In addition to the video reports, media added that on Wednesday evening, Feyenoord fans also set off fireworks in front of the hotel where Aston Villa players were staying, attempting to disrupt their rest.
