German and Dutch hooligans brawled in Groningen

Late Saturday evening, reports came out through local media that the police were actively looking for rioters in the city center of Groningen. No arrests have been made yet.

“This goes beyond all limits,” says a spokesman for the city about the violence in the city after RTV North reported about it earlier tonight.

Chairs and tables

Images shared via social media show how dozens of men pelt each other with everything that is loose and stuck. The chairs and tables fly back and forth.


Groningen already feared riots. An emergency order is in force in the city for fear of disturbances. There were indications that German hooligans were coming to town. With such an emergency order, the municipality can bring people outside the municipal boundary.

Due to the corona measures, it was already known that German football fans are not allowed to enter the stadium on Sunday.
