    Over 30 Wales football fans arrested in Armenia ahead of Euro qualifier

    Over 30 Wales football fans have been arrested in Armenia ahead of the Saturday’s  European Championships qualifier.

    Around 1,200 fans have gathered in Yerevan’s capital ahead of Saturday’s qualifier.

    The Football Association of Wales confirmed 32 fans were arrested, and the Foreign Office is investigating.

    “We are aware of the situation, and we are in regular discussions with the traveling police and FSA Cymru monitoring the situation,” it said.

    “FSA Cymru is the fan embassy that has contact with the local authorities as well as the South Wales Police, who are here to liaise with local law enforcement.”

    It comes after a female fan warned on Friday about a traumatic taxi ride in which the driver allegedly got in the back with her and begged for “sexual favors” instead of money.

    If Croatia loses to Latvia, Wales might qualify for Euro 2024 in Germany if they beat Armenia.

    However, a win on Saturday and a win against Turkey on Tuesday would guarantee the team’s place in the tournament, regardless of other results.
