Even as a sport fan be careful!

[Hispo]

It is very sad and also a big coincidence that in many of this tragic events, those who end up being harmed are either not from the country or the city, basically tourists, hopelly this is nothing life-threatening so they can continue to enjoy this sport without the fear of stepping in an stadium for the rest of their lives.
Football, as the king sport it is, obviously it makes people to lose their sense of morality sometimes and makes them to do stupid things, because how invested they feel as fans of certain clubs.

It reminds me the occasion when Brazil lost to Germany im the final match of the World Cup in 2014, I am pretty sure there were riots in the Brazilian cities that same night. It is okey to vent one's feelings and anger, but someone is not supposed to harm anyone physically or economically, for Gods sake.

Once these kind of incidents or conflicts could happen on a certain place and on a rampant manner then for sure it would really be something that be excluded by those tourist list that would really be going into their place just because on having that kind of shit reputation on which its locals are the ones who do causes up so much problem or trouble or simply life threatening kind of situation
then you cant blame them on. This is one of the main reasons on why i do skip out on going into those places specially if it isnt ours on which even if they are really that not bound to have those kind
of actions but you cant really remove into someones mind about those probabilities that could happen and this is something that you cant blame into other peoples mind and this is why
they do become that skeptical on hanging through into those places.

I sympathize with what happened in that match. a surprising event that we could not have predicted beforehand. The reason is that so far the European League event has run smoothly without causing any casualties or attacks between supporters which have resulted in physical violence and murder. and of course this can cause special concerns for football fans, when they want to watch a match live at a certain stadium. Of course, this will not only cause concern, but also harm the football industry.

As football fans, we should support it appropriately, and don't let differences in choices make us darken our eyes and give rise to hatred towards other people, especially if we behave anarchically. because this behavior is completely useless and will not make you a great person.

Taunts are normal with the fans for every intense matches but if I am foreign to the home land, I'd just basically going to enjoy the moment and I'd avoid to splur my emotion just because I am an avid fan of a team. But I will also try to contemplate if it's okay to do some taunt if the territory of that home land is quite welcoming and seems fine. Still, when I am away, I'd just do my own thing of being cautious and I'll try to avoid arguments that might result into a bad one because you don't know what's in the heads of the other fans when they're too emotional.
Sports is too emotional when you're an avid fan of it and there is no one going to stop you from having that emotional breakdown when your team is losing and there's the other fans from the winning team trying to taunt and tease you because you're a fan of the losing team. This happens at most times when you watch each sport but for me, just enjoy it and I'd avoid putting a lot of hard feelings and emotions on it because it is not going to result the way you'd expect it to be. Some that can't control their emotions as well could do crazy things.

Some fans can be violent and ready to do anything to an opposition so fans need to be careful as the OP have noted. There are a series of cases of sports violence which has claimed the lives of football fans and maybe some blame should go to the stadium security security for not preventing this violence. The rate at which fans fight in stadiums is becoming alarming and this calls for sensitization among fans to make them understand that even though you support rival clubs that doesn’t make you enemies.

Fans should only cheer players and avoid violence because life is too precious and so when there are casualties the excitement that comes with the game is lost. People will no longer concentrate on the game but rather be distracted due to the violent scene. As fans, let us embrace love for one another so that we can enjoy the sports activities.

With the thousands of people that are watching there, only two of them were stabbed? I think there is a personal reason for this, just like on most crimes that we heard. Still, your advice there must still be applied, as there are also crazy people who like to trip others, especially if they are not from their territory. I feel sorry for the 2 victims there. All what they want is only to unwind and go for a vacation but they didn't know that it was already their last moments.

The event organizers might also be responsible for this because they didn't inspect the people carefully if they have a deadly weapon with them. They should be penalized and they should help the victim's family in terms of finances.

Two Brighton supporters were stabbed in Rome last night ahead of tonight's Europa League round of 16 first leg tie against Roma.



Rumors says they were away supporters, and the showoff was immense. I feel there is a need that if a Fan goes on a vacation to watch a game in a foreign country. They should be security conscious, observant and stay out of unnecessary banters that could lead them to troubles or death. It a game for fun and merriment not something we should take too personally to heart to cause trouble.

My heart goes towards those people who got injured, and fuck you to everyone who takes it too far when you watch games. Fuck all these parasocial relationships you're making up with your idols, and fuck you if you justify this type of behavior. It's one thing to love and show support to a team that you've stuck with for a long time, I myself have favorite teams in every ESport game that I chose to be a master of. But it doesn't fucking mean I'd walk the wire for them, let alone kill someone just because they were offending my favorite team.

At the end of the day these are people who got nothing to do with you. They probably don't even know you exist and you're out here hurting other people just cause they don't like your team? that's stupid. You're wasting your time and your life away for someone who's not gonna do the same thing for you, keep that in mind, everytime you get into a heated argument with someone who just talked shit against your team. Be sensible, be civilized. be a fan but don't be a dickrider. Know your limits and set boundaries against yourself and each other so you don't go out there stabbing people who you don't agree with. This is just insane man, how people can go out there and waste their lives all because of a fucking game of all things.

How many people should being stabbed?

Knife and guns are different, if the attacker was using guns, you can expect there will be more than 2 victims because it's easy to use. While knife, when someone got stabbed, the other people will run.

The event organizer will help the victim's family, but I doubt they will get penalized.

A question to all, does only a sports fan should be careful if situation like that happens? People in general should be cautious. Starting from not visiting specific places where people with criminal mind suppose to be situated, and ending with learning to solve problems like that verbally. What I mean is that someone can get stabbed not only in a football game, but even near his house, or anywhere else. And people who have a knife in their hand, not always they plan to use it, sometimes you can either out-talk them (in this case agree that opponents team is better), give them something (wallet for example). When such person uses knife that means a bottom line for him, and a person who is about to get stabbed hasnt done everything to avoid this situation.

it's also worrying to hear such incidents especially since there are really many fans who want to watch the game. As usual, the team they admire doesn't know them so they can hurt each other just because they are different from the team they support, and we don't control other people's minds, why don't we just let them choose who they want to support, right? Surely there are other reasons why they have reached the point of being hurt and possibly even resorting to violence. Since Live telecast via online is now a trend, it seems like it's better to just watch it that way, at least you know you're safe inside your home.

I guess there's just a lot of dumb people out there that don't know what to do and they immediately resort to violence, I guess that's how they do things in this kind of world, some people are really stupid that they'd kill someone over an event that's probably going to be forgotten and will only be on match record books and archive of television tapes which would probably not be seen for so long. People like that shouldn't even be allowed to attend any kind of sporting event anymore, if they can't take the insult of their favorite team losing then it's probably the best idea if they're not going to be a part of that team, when the team that those scoundrels are supporting would know about this craziness, they'll probably condone that person too. With that kind of attack, it's definitely in your best interest to stay at home even though there's a delay in the game, at least you know that you're going to be safe.
