Riots erupt in Berlin fan zone after Dutch team’s second goal
After the Dutch team's second goal, riots broke out in the Berlin fan zone. Supporters of both teams clashed.
A confrontation occurred between Dutch and Turkish fans in the Berlin fan zone, where several thousand football enthusiasts had gathered.
In a video published by "Berliner Zeitung," supporters of both teams can be seen running toward each other. At the same time, a few individuals try to separate them to prevent a full-blown confrontation.
According to eyewitness accounts, the situation escalated rapidly after the Dutch team's second goal. Police services only arrived at the scene after the match had ended.
Concerning behaviour of fans before the match
Despite this, the police emphasized that the match in Berlin was peaceful overall. There were no significant public order disturbances, and the authorities did not record significant incidents.
Before the start of the match, some Turkish fans were detained for continuously performing the controversial "wolf salute". This gesture is associated with the "Grey Wolves," the largest extremist group operating in Turkey. As a result, the officers decided to stop the march of Turkish fans to the capital's venue.
