Mike Tackles Violence at Euro 2020 Final
The Euro 2020 final between Italy and England was marred by violence at Wembley Stadium.
However, former rugby champion Mike Tindall reportedly stepped in to quash tensions after a spectator was punched by a fellow England fan, resulting in a broken nose.
According to a source, Tindall selflessly intervened before security could reach the area of the fight.
The altercation took place just before the game started, and Zara, Tindall's wife, had to wipe blood off her seat after the heated exchange.
The source told The Sun that tensions had risen near where Zara and Mike were sitting because it had become quite crowded.
Two fans ended up in a punch-up, and Tindall had to step in to save the day.

He stood between them and pulled them apart before stewards could get them under control.
Unfortunately, some blood ended up near Zara, and she had to use a tissue to mop it up.
It was described as absolute mayhem, and Wembley was very lucky that Tindall was able to take control of the chaos.
Wembley Stadium descended into chaos shortly before the final started as large groups of ticketless fans tried to force their way past stewards to watch the match in person.
Footage shows stewards and security trying to grab the football fans as they break through the cordoned area and run up the stairs inside the stadium.
Zara and Mike weren't the only Royals in attendance at the Euro 2020 final.
Prince William, Kate, and Prince George were also present.
Much like during the round of 16 game against Germany, Prince George donned an outfit matching his father's.
The seven-year-old Chelsea and England supporter wore a buttoned-up shirt, blue suit, and striped tie similar to the FA tie worn by the Duke of Cambridge.
The third in line to the throne was spotted celebrating with his parents after England scored on the second minute of the first half of the game.
Following the penalties, which crowned Italy the tournament's champion, Prince William was seen placing his hands reassuringly on the shoulders of his son.
The Duke of Cambridge conceded victory in a personal tweet shared on his and Kate's Twitter account.
He wrote, “Heartbreaking.
Congratulations at Azuri on a great victory.
At England, you've all come so far.
But sadly this time it wasn't our day.
You can all hold your heads high, and be so proud of yourselves.
