But she then yanked down her T-shirt to reveal the words “F*** Euro 2012” scrawled on her chest. She grabbed the two-foot high cup with both hands before being grabbed by burly guards.
Yulia, dragged away covered in a sheet, is a member of Ukraine-based group Femen which claims next month’s tournament will make the country a magnet for sex tourists. The trophy wasn’t damaged and remained on display.

Yulia, who staged the protest on her 23rd birthday, will appear in court later today charged with hooliganism. Ukraine is co-hosting the Euros with Poland next month with the final in Kiev on July 1.

That looked fake. About a dozen men surrounded her as she went up. One of the guards came after her before she even got her hand on the trophy. Looks like a set up to me.
Well, I wasn't really sure where to go to get me some young Eurotrash tang, but I know now. Thanks, Femen!
I'm delighted by the name of the charge of "Hooliganism". Don't think that one is in any of the state's penal codes in the US.
