Aston Villa and Feyenoord will meet in a Europa League group stage match on Thursday evening.

However, a fight broke out on Wednesday night when Feyenoord fans attacked Villa supporters outside an Irish pub.

The sounds of breaking glass bottles and the chaos that ensued shocked witnesses.

No injuries have been reported. However, the police quickly dispersed the crowd.

Additionally, it was later reported that five local residents were arrested.

This incident occurred amid a brawl between fans of Napoli and Sporting Lisbon, who also participated in clashes in Italy.

Some supporters were throwing objects, while some were apparently wearing protective helmets, indicating their preparation for conflict.

These violent scenes continued for several minutes, while passersby attempted to flee to safety.

Eventually, some fans fled from the street, while others retreated in the opposite direction, trying to avoid further conflict.

This incident highlights a disturbing trend of violence among football fans, which remains an issue in European football. Club supporters will need to be particularly cautious during matches, especially in light of rising tensions in such situations.
