Italian anger over Feyenoord hooligans

Feyenoord fans continue to be criticised in Italy over their rampage in Rome.

Dutch fans ran riot during their visit for the Europa League tie with AS Roma.

"The police acted with professionalism and balance, as in these situations it's best to limit the damage," said Minister for the Interior Angelino Alfano.

"The devastating fury of the fans was also fuelled by their drunken state, despite the ban on sale of alcohol in the city that day.

"We have finalised our evaluation of the damages in various different sectors caused by the Feyenoord fans to be circa €5.2m."
