England fans launched “random attacks on Italians” after the final of the Euro 2020 tournament, police have said.

Forces across the country are still collating figures on the number of incidents targeting supporters of Italy, who won the tournament on penalties.

More than 2,300 police incidents linked to the Euros have so far been recorded, surpassing the 2018 World Cup to make it the worst football tournament on record for crime.

They include stabbings, glassings, fights and assaults on police officers, with at least 622 people arrested so far in England and Wales.

Sort of not surprised by this... sometimes some sports fans get overly fanatical and start doing bad stuff. There have been moments in the U.S. where sports fans have gone criminal like this. Also not surprising is that a bunch of it happened in pubs, or where alcohol is served. People can get extra when they have been drinking.
