Clashes broke out in London's Leicester Square on Sunday between England football fans and riot police an hour before the Euros final match between Italy and England.

Riot police moved into a rowdy crowd after one supporter starting setting off fireworks.

The crowd reacted when the officers seized the man and his fireworks and they responded angrily by hurling bottles and beer cans at officers.

At least two people were arrested by police during the unrest.
