Horrifying moment football hooligans blast their rivals with fireworks and attack each other with sticks
Violent clashes broke out during a football match in Ireland after a group of yobs began blasting rival fans with fireworks and attacking them with sticks. The streets of Derry descended into chaos on Friday when two large groups of supporters began attacking each other outside the Brandywell stadium as Derry City faced off against Dublin side Bohemians. A teenage boy and a man, aged in his 20s, sustained injuries as a result of the incident, which took place on the Lecky Road and Lone Moor Road areas, and were taken to hospital for treatment. Horrifying footage showed dozens of masked men wielding sticks, bats and iron bars facing off in front of shocked locals and fellow football fans. In one terrifying video, a gang of yobs can be seen blasting fireworks directly towards a rival group on the other side of a metal fence in scenes that resembled those out of a video game. Others appeared to be holding golf clubs and launching projectiles towards the men as they fled to safety to escape the burning embers and thick clouds of smoke. As the violence ensued, one young girl could be heard getting increasingly distressed as she cries out to her father: 'Daddy, please, daddy!' 'You're alright, you're alright,' he says, desperately trying to reassure her, before telling two men on the opposite side of the fence to 'calm down' as they look for objects to throw back in retaliation. Huge red and green sparks can be seen flying into the air as the yobs fired the projectiles towards their rivals on the other side of the fence A second video shows several young men facing off in a residential area, with some trading punches while others launched sticks and various other projectiles towards their rivals. In a third clip, dozens of yobs can be seen charging towards a smaller group of lads in front of horrified locals - as several sirens can be heard wailing in the background. Police said the disorder, which they believe was pre-arranged, took place in the Lecky Road and Lone Moor Road areas shortly after 7pm. Further clashes then occurred in the vicinity of the Brandywell stadium during and after the football match, which kicked off 7:45pm. Officers in attendance said they worked along with stadium staff to bring the disorder under control. No arrests have been made at this time. Superintendent William Calderwood said: 'We believe that the disorder we witnessed on Friday evening was pre-arranged and we will be reviewing all available footage to identify those involved. 'I would ask anyone with information or footage which could assist us with our inquiries to contact officers at Strand Road on 101.' A report can be submitted online using the non-emergency reporting form via or people can also contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. A local Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) who was at the game said he was left frightened by what he had witnessed. 'In terms of scale and the level of violence and danger to those in the vicinity, we haven't seen anything like this and I hope we never do again,' SDLP MLA Mark Durkan told the Belfast Telegraph. 'It was genuinely scary. I don't scare easily but we did turn on our heels and go in the opposite direction. 'People were genuinely frightened and that shouldn't be the case, especially when they go to a football match.' The Irish Premier league match, which ended in a 1-1 draw, was also briefly suspended after a flare was thrown onto the pitch from outside the ground.
