英格蘭隊失利後，警方報告了一些逮捕案件，但是並沒有球迷暴力活動發生。酒吧裏大屏幕前，成千上萬觀看了英格蘭隊四分之一決賽的球迷只是在街道上徘徊，他們令人震驚的平靜。一些英格蘭的球迷試著喚起高呼，很多人在咒罵失利，但是總體上來説他們很平靜。蓋爾森基興的警方發言人表示有“一些人”被捕，但是並沒有透露具體數目。
在主觀看區，大概有10名球迷扭打起來。“其他都很安靜。”發言人説。

原文:Calm prevails immediately following England's World Cup loss

GELSENKIRCHEN, Germany (AP) -- Police reported several arrests but no fan violence Saturday following Portugal's World Cup win over England.
Tens of thousands of England fans who watched the quarterfinal game outside on large-screen TVs and in bars wandered quiet streets in shocked silence. Some England fans tried to raise cheers, many cursed, but generally they were peaceful after their team lost 3-1 on penalties after playing 120 minutes for scoreless soccer.
Gelsenkirchen Police spokesman Thomas Weise said that "several" people had been arrested, but he did not have the exact number.
At the main viewing area, about 10 fans tussled with each other briefly.
"Otherwise, it has been quiet," he said.
German, British and Portuguese police were deployed throughout the city to separate fans after the game and head off any trouble, but officers kept back.
Keeping fans apart was a strategy police used in several host cities that have hosted England, a team whose fans have a history of hooliganism.
About 70,000 English and 20,000 Portuguese fans were in Gelsenkirchen, a western mining town and one of the tournament's smallest venues.
To accommodate ticketless English fans, a British broadcast of the match was shown on a giant screen at a horse track. At the track, some devastated England fans lay on the ground others hugged each other and cried -- then filtered out peacefully.
