The game between Nice and Koln was marred by confrontations between fans
A UEFA Europa Conference League meeting between Nice and Koln was almost called off after violent clashes played out between rival supporters and caused 32 injuries.
As reported by Get French Football News, tensions between the opposing supporters "had been building all day" after Koln fans took over Nice's main square, the Place Massena, and vandalized Nice's club shop.
According to the same outlet, Koln fans, when already inside Nice's Allianz Riviera ground in southeastern France, then left their section to confront their Nice counterparts.
When they responded, fights broke out and flares were thrown as shown in social media footage with one clip displaying stewards kicking and punching a member of the traveling contingent.
