The Dutch fans tried to smash the glass barriers in the stands and threw seats at stewards. The game was stopped on 78 minutes and played to a finish after the delay.
I think UEFA should be applauded for this action, however, they have set the bar up there now. Anymore crowd trouble like this and they'll have to take the same action, even if it is a supposedly bigger club.
