England face and old rival both on and off the pitch in tonight's world cup semi final. A matchup that may open up old wounds and anger in many.

It is important to note that this does not excuse any aggressive behavior online or in person. This includes domestic abuse, where reported cases rise by 34% when England play. Local and national help is available:

National Domestic Abuse Helpline: 0808 2000 247

Oxfordshire Domestic Abuse Services: 0800 731 0055

Be kind to one another and stay safe.
