Police used tear gas to disperse supporters.

#France #SaintEtienne #Auxerre
God protect the terrible situation
Yes, let NOBODY break it up.
এগুলো কি হচ্ছে ফ্রন্চে
Freedom of expression didi 😂
This is the reason why I said football is a joke this is how they make man not been real Football men sport team player I think it’s about time now football should be woken up was awful lol normal football this is what happens when you got football hooligans just playing evil had a se can’t take losing as a sport when you’ve got young teenagers are looking up the adults and this is what they cannot function properly it is finished now was and for all get that straight
That was barbaric and inhuman, football is in this last centaury becoming a progenitor of violence and unruly behavior.
I challenge Top football officials to come up with concrete solutions to these barbaric vices that are emerging so rapidly cause innocent lives are lost in such kinda of occurrences.
Concerned brother-zambia
Classy French ? Lol 😂
Say W H A T ???
Neanderthals 🚧
If this happened in Africa, the caption will be different 😂😂😂😂😂
It happened in Senegal vs Egypt in Dakar. Was the caption different?
At some degree this happens regularly in Europen soccer.
Exactly 💯
Yeah, “Arrrrrrg, they be pirates, matey.”
“The World Game brings us all together”
…to beat the living daylights out of each other, apparently.
This is *“freedom of expression”* of the so-called *civilized France*
I am muslim too but this has nothing to do with whole islamophobic issue in france a lot of these fans are second generation immigrants from north africa and africa like me so it’s not helping our case
Get out of the way of the fool or you will not find the mouth of understanding.
Very civil society
It is Putin fault, he’s influence on the west makes people go savage.
More sanctions to Russia for doing this. Because it doesn’t matter if those sanctions harm the civilians from the west
Those crazy Europeans and that stupid game
If you treat football *fanatics* as minor nuisances when they cause serious damage like this, you create the conditions for future violations of the law.
There is video of this. Charge them all. Fine them two thousand euros each or put them to work in a chain gang for 3 months. Their choice.
People are expressing their feelings of anger, frustration, insactisfection at any time they can. Europe is on the brink of total and uncontrolled violence. Politics and money are everywhere .
Why not? Russia is frequently, like now, and the some part of the Middle East are always at it. Might as well join the ‘fun’. We can’t have people just living in peace and prosperity. That’s not the human way.
Except it’s not new
@Nathan Levesque From when about the first animals capable of it popped onto the scene, probably. I imagine it predated the so called ‘oldest profession’ by a very long time.
The surprising thing that most people don’t realize is that in general (not Ukraine right now obviously, and a few other areas) safety is better than it has been at any time throughout history.
@John Sikes I think the first animals were sponges, but I get what you mean.
Braindead, sore loser soccer fans 👏👏👏
Omg if this happend in Afghanistan the result was be😂😂😂😂
Watch✌🇦🇫❤
Really womder to see supporter’s fighting for let their club playing in a farmer’s league
Yeah, have you seen the parents at whatever the equivalent of your little league is, in whichever sport?
Football lives matter
Another revolution in France haha
good game keep it up
Maybe you stop having these huge matches against others
thugs
bread and circuses are not working so well in the 21st century
… Large herds of sheep will act up sometimes.
Football is no longer about sports it’s all about money and fame
WOW, and football is the only place you see this problem creeping in?
Is anyone else wondering how well prepared they were for violence? Smoke bombs etc…….. This has an alternative motive
Yes, black eyes and frustration relief…it’s not R O L A I D S.
@John Sikes I have no idea what you are talking about?
@Brian McCutcheon A stab at a possible alternative motive…and an apparently poor attempt at humor based on that ‘motive’, relief of boredom and/or frustration. Never mind. Not worth the effort, apparently. I will try harder next time. :-/ 🙂
@John Sikes ?
And they blame Liverpool for what happened in the champions league 🤦🤦🤦🤷🤷🤷
Just like in South America when happens the same
Maybe in Europe with their far right governments and racism the people are full of hate
ALLAHU AKBAR !
On dirait que le match dont je suis l ‘ actrice à Genève est encore interessant inchaALLAH !
Alors ya Tamim tu m ‘ envoie un cheval blanc et puis si vous m ‘ enchenez dans votre pays inchaALLAH , il n ‘ y pas de mal !
ALLAH ( SWT ) me Protegera tant que ma mort n ‘ est pas Aujourd’hui inchaALLAH !
Sort of the opposite of the old joke “I was watching a fight, and a hockey game broke out”. I guess if you don’t have any religious differences to fight over, a sports event will suffice.
True lol 😂
Hey do you post videos on YouTube on a regular basis? It’s been a year since you posted your last video. Anyways your videos are cute and adorable! 🙂 I hope you start uploading videos very often 🙂
@Alexander Müller I was doing it for ebay items we were selling, my wife mostly. With COVID she kind of backed off as many new listings of that type as we couldn’t source new stuff, but maybe pretty soon.
I REALLY need to get some more typewriters done, as I have a floor to ceiling three shelf rack FULL of them. It’s really weird to get a comment about my channel from a video that is not mine. With a teeny tiny channel like mine, yours is the first. 🙂
I was going to take the little Christmas animated character type stuff off when they sold and then I got a really nice comment from a kid that said it reminded him of his grandmother who had passed, so I decided to just leave them up.
Luckily, no mass shooting ..like in Uvalde..
Game over…
lol at Red Star Belgrade they have a moat at the Marakana.
This is why I hate football. And I love basketball forever because there is no war in every basketball matches, but there is always war in every football matches.
In “every” football, softy rainbow 🌈princess
I Wish They’ll Get A Point Deduction And Be Relegated From Ligue 2
They did freedom of expretion
france should be barred from playing any kinds of football.
After several months of isolation and Covid brain, this is not surprising. People are taking their frustrations on the games or in the streets. In America guns are used to express frustrations and hardships. A new normal for the world. Sad!
True. However, wish people would aim their frustrations at the country that started it all, Kung-Flu.
after decades of this behavior it cannot be blamed on current events
Stupidity is boundless!
This in Poland wariots
france hooligans
1:19 No way you call a little push assault
yes way
Don’t be afraid for the 2022 football world cup. Only VIPs will come to see the match in Qatar… The lively public will watch the matches in streaming or in fan zones at home.
Saint-Etienne…? The whole of France is turning into Saint-Denis💩
😱😳😳
As a wise person once said:
‘You’re not football fans, you’re just muggy little c***s
fence them in
Freaking people need to be shot.
Commercialized sports are meant to occupy the minds of the lower classes and those who will not make it.
“civilized country”
Can you guys just say lost instead of “relegate”? I had to Google that because I had no idea what it meant and English is my native language. Please use simpler English so we can understand
Nah you just don’t know football
And people wonder why French Police used teargas at Le Stade De France?
