Violence Erupts in the City of Lights

A massive brawl broke out between Newcastle and PSG fans in Paris just hours before their highly anticipated Champions League clash. Newcastle supporters claim that PSG ultras stormed into a restaurant, causing chaos and terrorizing families and children.

Chairs Thrown, Glasses Smashed, and Flares Ignited

Disturbing footage captured the intense altercation between the two groups. Chairs were hurled, glasses were shattered, and bright red flares were set off, enveloping the area in smoke. The situation quickly escalated, leaving families and children caught in the crossfire.

Hidden Identities and Pleas for Peace

Many of the individuals involved in the fight concealed their identities by wearing hoods and face masks. Amidst the chaos, a voice could be heard desperately pleading for the violence to cease. A man can be heard saying, "Stop it, Stop, Stop it."

Crucial Match Looms

This shocking incident occurred less than 24 hours before the crucial Champions League group stage match between Newcastle and PSG. Newcastle desperately needs a victory in order to have a chance of advancing to the knockout round. Both teams are currently vying for qualification from Group F, as all four teams still have a shot at progressing.

A History of Confrontation

This is not the first time clashes have occurred between Newcastle and PSG fans. In the previous fixture between the two teams, similar issues arose when Parisians visited Newcastle. Videos from that encounter showed both sets of fans being aggressive and having to be swiftly separated. Bottles and flares were thrown back and forth, with chants of "Who are ya?" echoing through the streets.

Police Presence and Arrests

During a previous match against Borussia Dortmund, nine people were reportedly arrested. There was a heavy police presence on the streets leading to the stadium, and officers acted as a barrier between the away supporters and the Toon Army. Dortmund supporters were heard chanting in both German and English, while fights broke out between rival fans, prompting police intervention.

It remains to be seen how this recent clash will impact the upcoming Champions League match, but it is clear that tensions between the two sets of fans are running high.
