Overview
Ugly scenes marred the Europa League for a second consecutive round of fixtures last night, as violence between opposing fans broke out across multiple games.
Several arrests were made during Leicester City's match with Napoli last month, and similar scenes of fan clashes played out at stadiums in France and England this week.
Marseille's goalless draw with Galatasaray was halted for eight minutes in the closing stages of the first half following crowd violence and the throwing of projectiles.
UEFA's live match blog stated that the referee had paused the game due to "security reasons related to pyrotechnics." Images showed lit flares being thrown between rival fans, with one hurled onto the pitch.
