Eight England fans arrested in Munich including three for making Nazi salutes

Eight England football fans have been arrested in Munich ahead of tonight's Nations League game against Germany.

Around 4,000 of the national team's fans are in Munich for the clash between old rivals, which could see right-back Kieran Trippier become the first Newcastle United player to start for the Three Lions since Andros Townsend played a pre-Euro 2016 friendly against Australia.

The arrests on Monday occurred despite England supporters insisting that they were determined to repair their damaged reputation, particularly those following the scenes at the Euro 2020 final at Wembley last July. Three fans were arrested for making Nazi salutes, while local police said another fan caused an estimated €2,000 (£1,700) of damage to his hotel room after letting off a flare.
