Supporters were allegedly trying to forcibly enter the 'fan zone' to watch the final between France and Portugal in the city centre on Sunday night. But those who could not squeeze into the venue let out their frustrations and clashed with police underneath the Eiffel Tower. Police used tear gas to try and disperse the crowds who were seen to be throwing objects and lighting fires just yards from the back of the fan zone's big screen. |
