A number of England supporters reportedly chanted anti-IRA songs during Tuesday night's friendly against Italy in Turin.

The Football Association stepped in last November to warn fans against politically-charged chanting after Three Lions supporters were caught singing "fuck the IRA" during a 3-1 win over Scotland at Celtic Park.

However, according to ITV News, anti-IRA songs were heard from the England crowd while they watched Roy Hodgson's men secure a 1-1 draw with Italy.

Graziano Pelle opened the scoring for Italy in the 29th minute, but Andros Townsend struck 10 minutes from time to salvage a draw.
