“Unfortunately, 19 of our officers were injured in clashes with a crowd of fans. This is completely unacceptable,” a police statement said.
The number of fans detained after the final has reportedly risen to 49. Police have thanked “tens of thousands” of fans for their good behaviour and good behaviour.
Earlier, England fans, disappointed with their team's defeat in the final to Italy, started setting off flares and overturning rubbish bins. However, there was no serious unrest in central London.
Italy won the Euro 2020 final on penalties. The match ended in a 1-1 draw, with no goals scored in extra time. England lost the penalty shootout 2-3.
