It's a beautiful time of the year with the summer of soccer. And arguably the most anticipated tournament, Euro 2016, began on Friday and continued Saturday, with England vs. Russia highlighting the slate. Sadly though, before that match could even begin, fans clashed in Marseille, producing some scary and violent moments in the streets.

Check this out.

There is even a video of fans being beaten to the ground, which we won't post here. Warning, it's pretty graphic and can be viewed here.

What a sad start this is to Euro, but not unexpected. When you get thousands of passionate fans hitting up pub after pub before a match, one says something to another and all hell can break loose.

What's even sadder is that we were warned.
