Chaotic scenes have erupted in Dortmund ahead of Turkey's Euro 2024 clash against Georgia, as violent clashes between both sets of fans arose inside the Signal Iduna Park.

It came after inclement weather conditions struck the region in the past few hours, with two waterfalls of rain appearing to cascade through the roof of the stadium ahead of the Group F Clash, which is due to kick off at 5pm on Tuesday. 

Journalist Daniel Story posted a video of the waterfalls flooding into the stadium through the roof on X (formerly Twitter), showcasing the inclement weather that has struck Dortmund in the past few hours. 

As fans looked to avoid the showers of rain, violent scenes also erupted between both sets of supporters in one corner of the ground, with police entering the stands to ease tensions between the fans. 

Two large groups of supporters were seen confronting eachother, with missiles being launched, while some punches were also thrown. 

Police, wearing protective helmets, positioned themselves between both sets of fans and remained in place during the build-up to the match. 

There were concerns that the match could be postponed with grounds staff also seen trying to brush excess rainwater inside the stadium into drains.

Ahead of the match, both Turkey and Georgia supporters were seen in high spirits, with fans lining the streets of Dortmund, shouting and chanting. 

Turkey fans were seen singing and lapping up the atmosphere inside the German city, while swathes of Georgia fans marched their way towards the Signal Iduna Park.
