by time news

A man who attacked a Russian fan during the match between the national teams of Ukraine and Sweden at the European Football Championship has already been arrested. This was reported by the victim himself.

The incident occurred during the game of 1/8 final of the playoffs, which took place on Tuesday in Dublin and ended with the victory of the Ukrainian national team (3: 2) in extra time. Denis Smolensky came to the match wearing the symbols of the Russian national team in the company of two friends, a Ukrainian and a Pole, each of whom was dressed in the attributes of his national team.

However, during the game, the Russian, who was in the sector with the Ukrainian fans and supported the national team of this country, was approached by unknown persons in Ukrainian symbols and started a brawl, tearing Smolensky’s shirt and inflicting several blows on him.

“The one who attacked was arrested. I still didn’t think what I would do, I didn’t even talk about it with my mother,” Smolensky RT said.

According to the Russian fan, he and his friends “just wanted to go to football.” “Provocations – no, we didn’t even plan. We thought that everything would be fine,” he admitted.
