Incredible footage shows Hungary fans absolutely taking over Marseille

Intimidating...

Simon Lloyd

Marseille’s seen plenty these last few days.

A week on from the ugly scenes that unfolded in the city in the build-up to England’s game with Russia, it seems locals were in for another noisy night.

With the Stade de Velodrome playing host to their country’s game with Iceland, Hungarian fans arrived in the south of France in their tens of thousands. And just take a look at what happened when they all gathered in one of the Marseille streets.

Intimidating stuff, eh?

Both teams recorded surprise results in their opening Euro 2016 matches with Hungary defeating Austria 2-0 and Iceland snatching their first ever point at a major tournament with a 1-1 draw against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal.
