London’s Metropolitan Police said on Thursday that the law enforcement officers had made 20 arrests following England’s 2:1 victory over Denmark in the EURO 2020 semi-final.
“Following the fantastic win by England, officers were out across London patrolling and engaging with people. There were large pockets of groups who gathered predominantly in central London, and officers remained with them”, the police tweeted.
