星期五，上千名英格蘭球迷佔據了法蘭克福的一個中心廣場。當幾百名剛剛看完德國隊以4比2戰勝哥斯達黎加的比賽的德國球迷到達這個廣場以後，雙方開始互相辱罵對方。警方立即趕到現場並把雙方的球迷彼此分開。英國球迷唱了10首令德國球迷很不愉快的歌曲以及其他一些有關二戰的歌曲；德國球迷則是手舞國旗。當地時間晚上8：30，大約100多名警察趕到了現場並把雙方球迷拉開。

　　大約有三萬名英格蘭球迷將在星期六抵達德國第五大城市法蘭克福觀看英格蘭和巴拉圭的比賽。英格蘭球迷想要展示他們的新風貌，以證明他們不會再有像之前幾次在歐洲舉辦的世界盃上的粗魯行為了。德國世界盃上的一名志願者認為英格蘭的球迷應該選擇一些其他的歌曲來演唱，還有一些球迷應該在更遠距離的地方觀看比賽。英國和德國官方稱，這是他們有史以來在保證世界盃可以順利進行方面最密切的一次合作。星期四，一名希臘球迷由於在一酒吧用刀捅傷了一名英格蘭球迷而被逮捕。星期六，將會有大約5000名巴拉圭球迷前往德國觀看巴拉圭和英格蘭的這場比賽。他們説雖然我們的人數遠不如英格蘭，但我們會盡全力使我們的吶喊聲和他們一樣大。

　　原文：FRANKFURT, June 9 (Reuters) - Thousands of England fans took over a central Frankfurt square on Friday and helmeted police moved in to keep them away from German supporters as the two sides began to taunt each other.

　　Though boisterous, the mood had been good-natured as fans played football in the sunshine. But the atmosphere changed when hundreds of German fans arrived after watching their team beat Costa Rica 4-2 in a match shown on a giant screen floating on the nearby River Main.

　　England fans chanted "10 German bombers" and other songs referring to World War Two while German supporters waved their national flags.

　　Around 100 police wearing white helmets with visors moved into the square at around 8:30 p.m. (1830 GMT) to keep the two sides apart.

　　Earlier on the banks of the Main, an estimated 40,000 mostly German fans gathered to watch the host nation's opening victory.

　　Fans straining to catch a glimpse of the huge screens in the river sat on the roofs of riverside apartments or in the trees.

　　Two English police officers who are working in Germany as advisers mingled with fans and posed for photos.

　　Some 30,000 England fans are expected to descend on Germany's fifth largest city where their team play Paraguay on Saturday.

　　The English are trying to show they have cleaned up their act after violence at previous tournaments in Europe.

　　"It's a party atmosphere, it's a carnival, the Germans have made everybody welcome," said Cristian Gladdish, from Canterbury, brandishing an inflatable World War Two Spitfire.

　　One German World Cup volunteer Andrea Filsinger, 31, said she thought England fans should find some alternative songs to sing as older people would be offended while others stood and watched from a distance.

　　"There's loads of English here," said Frankfurt resident Sebastien Roth. "Like the stereotype some are fat and drinking a lot of beer, but they're not aggressive."

　　British and German authorities say they have worked at an unprecedented level to ensure the World Cup passes off smoothly.

　　On Thursday, a Greek national was arrested after pulling a knife on an England fan in an isolated incident in a pub.

　　Around 5,000 Paraguay fans are expected to be at Saturday's match. "We're very happy to be here," said Pedro Vera from Ascuncion. "There are too many England fans, but we will try to make as much noise as them."
