Croatia fans plan to wreak havoc during Euro 2016 group clash against Spain in bid to be kicked out of tournament


CROATIAN fans are threatening to wreak havoc in their nation’s final group game in a bid to get their side side kicked out of Euro 2016.

The Croats were charged by Uefa following crowd disturbances during Friday’s 2-2 draw with the Czech Republic.

Rowdy supporters turned on each other and both flares and fists were thrown amongst themselves in the stands of France‘s Parc des Princes.

Croatian thugs have declared war on their own FA – branding the organisation ‘corrupt’ – and have already protested against president Davod Suker and vice president Zdravko Mamiv’s reign by burning a swastika into the pitch before a qualifier against Italy.

Now Ultras are plotting to disrupt Croatia‘s clash with Spain in Bordeaux on Tuesday to try and force Uefa to haul them out of the tournament.

On one official supporters group’s Facebook page crude blueprints for the Nouveau Stade de Bordeaux have been drawn up with instructions appearing to direct protesters movements at the game.

The rabble claims to have support in another group, the U.V.

The post is captioned: "Here is another plan!

"There will be backup in U.V.!"

A plan of Saint-Etienne's Stade Geoffroy-Guichard - where the Czech Republic clash was played - was also uploaded onto the page less than two hours before kick-off.

Croatia star Ivan Perisic, who netted against the Czech Republic, said: "Maybe it would be best if we don’t play at all.

“Maybe that would actually be better in case these things are going to happen every time we play."

While national team manager Ante Cacic condemned a section of his own fans as 'hooligans'.

He added: "They are not really Croatia supporters. These people are scary and I call them hooligans."
