Crowd disorder marred Cologne’s return to European soccer competition after 25 years as the German team’s fans caused havoc in London and forced the Europa League game against Arsenal to be delayed for an hour. Arsenal won 3-1. The presence of thousands of ticketless Cologne fans, who marched through the streets of the British capital, made it hard for ticket holders to enter Emirates Stadium.

Police said four people were arrested. About 20,000 Cologne fans came to London, after only 3,000 tickets were allocated to them.
