Football fans attack police with fireworks

Football fans threw fireworks at police after Northern Ireland’s World Cup qualifier against Poland in Belfast.

Between 50 and 60 Northern Ireland fans clashed with police at a roundabout at the bottom of Tates Avenue, outside Windsor Park football ground.

Police said nine people, the majority of them Polish, were earlier arrested after trouble at a city centre pub.

The match, which Northern Ireland won 3-2, was briefly halted after an object thrown from the crowd hit a linesman. Click here for the full story.
