Bayern Munich are in Greece for a Champions League clash with Olympiakos, but there has already been a different type of clash in the stands.
The "Shickeria" are the Bayern Ultras, and they have reportedly walked out of the stadium in protest at the behaviour of Greek police after taking a serious beating while waiting for the match to kick off. The crushing irony over all of this is that the Bayern fans were under extra protection while in Greece so as not to have any incidents with Olympiakos fans..

It is unclear what started all of this, but it's pretty shocking to watch fans with nowhere to retreat to being clubbed repeatedly. One poor chap there took numerous blows to the back while trying to help another fan off the ground.
Shocking scenes, and you'd have to imagine that UEFA will not be pleased to have this in the headlines tomorrow.
