Crowd trouble mars England-Hungary WC Qualifier

Hungary fans fought with police in the opening minutes of Tuesday's World Cup qualifier against England at Wembley.

Some of their supporters, totalling almost 1,000, booed as England players took the knee before kick-off.

The Metropolitan Police said ‘minor disorder’ broke out as they arrested a fan for ‘a racially aggravated public order offence’ in relation to comments directed towards a steward.

Crowd trouble also marred Poland's World Cup qualifying victory over Albania, with the game suspended for more than 20 minutes after home fans threw objects at the visiting players.

The game ended 1-1 with John Stones levelling for England after Roland Sallai's penalty for Hungary.
