England and Germany fans clash in Düsseldorf after hosts’ Euro 2024 exit

England and Germany fans were involved in clashes in Düsseldorf on Friday night, according to reports.

Video footage obtained by the Daily Mail shows a group of England fans outside a bar in the city, taunting nearby Germany supporters about their side’s exit and singing “Germans going home”.

A brief scuffle then broke out between a handful of people, who aimed punches and kicks at each other, with some objects thrown before the Germany fans appeared to move away.
