The local press, and in particular ‘Bild’, reports that “several English supporters” were stopped after a riot in a pub which left some injured. For now, no confirmation has been received from the police.

However, it is reported that both the policeman and the fan, who appears to be originally from Birmingham, suffered “serious head injuries”. In Gelsenkirchen there are 30 thousand English fans, but only 20 thousand of them have tickets for the match and further public order problems are feared.
