Riot police spray tear gas on Man Utd fans

The problems started after a United fan climbed a fence at the Stade Felix-Bollaert in Lens to get on to the pitch and approached his team's goalkeeper Edwin Van Der Sar.

Stewards took the supporter back to the stands triggering an angry reaction from the other United fans.

Riot police intervened with truncheons and sprayed tear gas as several supporters tried to climb over the fences.

The game was not stopped and calm returned after a few minutes.

United had expressed concern about the basic facilities at the ground and were surprised Lille were allowed to move the game to the compact 42,000 stadium in northern France rather than a larger, more modern venue like the Stade de France.

You already know the reasoning for that so that comment was quite the reach in riling me up.

I'm Irish and proud of the team I support, and I don't support just when they're doing well, I support them no matter what.
