Marseille fans let off fireworks outside Tottenham’s team hotel in a dirty tricks campaign the night before their Champions League showdown.
The Marseille “ultras” set off the fireworks at 1.30am and 4.30am in the early hours of Tuesday morning in what was a “very prolonged” attempt to disrupt Tottenham ’s preparations. It is believed to have woken up Antonio Conte’s players ahead of their final Group match in the French city.
Sky Italia have shown video footage of the fireworks exploding above the team base in Marseille. It was a lively night in Marseille as it has been a national holiday and there were street parties throughout the city to celebrate Halloween with people drinking and in fancy dress.
