Watch this hooligan throws bin video that sees a hapless German troublemaker pick up a large rubbish container and hurl it at armoured riot police only to see it whack into his mate, sending him sprawling to the floor.

The clip was filmed in the midst of a heated battle with the European officers, reportedly following a fairly uneventful German 4th division clash.

One thug is shown aiming a huge plastic dustbin at an approaching line of police but the masked man ends up hitting a fellow supporter, who was caught unaware as he was involved in a close-quarters scuffle at the time, in the back of the head.

The victim can later be seen being dragged back to his comrades as there doesn’t seem to be much interest in making arrests.

Uploaders LiveLeak report:

That bin must stink because I saw the police spraying perfume afterwards.
