Man United and Tottenham are accused of 'destroying Bilbao': Spanish fury as British fans tear down traffic lights and brawl on the streets in scenes of anarchy

Spanish media have hit out at Manchester United and Tottenham fans for being 'difficult to control' ahead of the Europa League final, amid reports of clashes between supporters in Bilbao.

An expected total of 80,000 supporters have reportedly flown out to Spain for the game, despite the San Mames having a capacity of 52,114.

Both sets of clubs were allocated 15,000 tickets for the final, with thousands of ticketless fans still opting to descend on the city.

Spanish news agency EFE reported on Tuesday that 'some fans are already losing control' in the streets in the centre of Bilbao.
