Russia striker Artem Dzyuba on Tuesday hit out at English fans, saying that they were being depicted as "angels".

"I dont really understand this kind of reaction of the British media. We have this impression that English supporters are like angels coming to this country and behaving themselves," Dzyuba said.

Dzyuba also indicated that England fans were equally to blame and that there was a campaign to take the 2018 World Cup away from Russia.
