JAKARTA The Tottenham Hotspur match against Marseille in the European Champions League group stage for the 2022/2023 season on Thursday, September 8 in the morning, was marked by the action of throwing each other between supporters.
The unwanted scene at Tottenham Stadium began with the Marseille fans. They provoked a riot by throwing bottles of drinks at the host's supporters.
Their action then escalated into a fight with the stewards to the point that the riot police had to come to calm the situation.
Video clips of the clashes were also widely circulated on social media. In the footage, it can be seen that the two supporters even tried to break through the barrier that separated them.
"The bad scene at Tottenham Stadium. Starting with Marseille fans throwing several missiles at Spurs fans, before rising to a fight with the stewards," wrote the Twitter account @_walkeran.
Meanwhile, in another footage shared by Declan Legislative from TalkSport, it shows Marseille supporters lowering the rainbow flag when riots occur.
The rainbow flag, which is generally called a gay bandera and the LGBT flag, is part of the movement for equality for vulgars, gays, bisexuals and transgenders. This rainbow symbol has been recognized internationally.
"The scene was bad at the Tottenham stadium. Fights, flares and missiles were thrown from the guest fans. Ultras Marseille lowered the Tottenham rainbow flag in the corner of the pitch.
This incident put Spurs and Marseille at risk of facing UEFA's accusations for failing to control the audience after the bad scene.
Meanwhile, this match was won by Spurs who acted as hosts. They managed to silence their guests who played with ten players early in the second half with a score of 2-0.
The two winning goals for The Lilywhite were bought up by Richarlison. Tottenham will next face Sporting Lisbon on the second matchday which takes place on Tuesday, September 13 next week.
