Shortly before the 2000 UEFA Cup Final between English club Arsenal and Turkish team Galatasaray, there were clashes featuring Britons and supporters of Galatasaray. As well as Arsenal fans, it was reported that followers of English outfits Chelsea and Leeds United as well as Scot side Rangers and Welsh teams Cardiff City and Swansea City had travelled to Copenhagen to engage with the Turks. This incident shocked UEFA deeply. These concerns intensified during Euro 2000, as there were hooligan riots caused by England fans and UEFA's stance against the English bid hardened as a result.
