PSG Fans Have A Strong Message To Turkish Fans Who Booed Moment Of Silence

In the wake of last weekend's horrific attacks in Paris, the football world stood up in solidarity with countless tributes and gestures in support to France, and the people of Paris.

Things didn't quite go to plan in Turkey, however, as fans booed during the minutes silence before their match against Greece. While there was some confusion over the meaning of the boos, some claiming they were booing the terrorist acts and chanting in support of those who died, it was not well received by the fans of Paris St-Germain.

The morning after their team claimed an away win against Lorient to go 13 points clear at the top of Ligue 1, some PSG fans geathered outside the Parc des Princes to make their feelings perfectly clear; Turkish fans are not welcome for Euro 2016.

Of course, Turkey may get drawn somewhere like Nice or Marsille, in which case they wouldn't be near Paris anyway, but that's not the point of this message.

It remains to be seen if this will be addressed by UEFA, or the Turkish FA in the coming weeks and months as we near the start of the tournament, but regardless of the intention, there is now tension between the two groups of supporters.
