He is overwhlemed by Russian fans and finally left motionless on the floor
THIS horrifying footage captures the moment an England footie fan is beaten unconscious and abandoned by his friends, in the latest clash between England and Russia fans in Marseilles.
As the footage begins, England fans run towards a group of Russians and start lobbing chairs.
After a brief standoff, one England fan wearing red races ahead and starts throwing punches and kicks.
However, he and the other England supporters are beaten back as more and more Russians emerge.
The man's friends retreat and he is left alone to fight.
He is soon forced to the ground and Russian supporters begin stamping on him.
After some final punches and kicks he is eventually knocked unconscious and lies motionless on the floor.
These seemingly endless clashes have so far marred the tournament. Both English and Russian fans have exercised senseless violence and even drawn an expulsion warning from UEFA.
Yesterday, England fans told how a mix of Russian and local hooligans assaulted them with baseball bats and knives ahead of Saturday's England vs Russia match.
The thugs wore mouth guards and used telescopic batons as they launched the shocking assault on terrified England fans.
French prosecutors said 150 Russians were behind the most serious clashes before Saturday’s 1-1 draw.
However, two England fans were later jailed and banned from France by a court in Marseilles after they bottled a policeman following the team's opening clash with Russia.
Things have gotten so desperate that Roy Hodgson and Wayne Rooney urged England fans to "behave themselves" and to "stay out of trouble" for the rest of the tournament.
If these clashes continue, both teams could well be excluded.
After their crushing draw with Russia, England will play Wales on Thursday at 14:00.
