What idiots!
How did people die? In the video, I just saw a few minor scuffles and fans running on the field.

Some Egyptians are convinced this was an effort on the part of the police state to incite violence and perpetuate authoritarian control over the nation.

Reuters says that one soccer team's fans were the most unified force behind the Egyptian revolution, and that they were the ones the police allowed to be murdered yesterday.

Soccer fans are crazy. When I stayed in England for 4 months; my friends took me to a Manchester United game. It's a little scary man! In fact, I remembered hearing the field had "trap doors" installed for the refs to make emergency exits if a riot breaks out.

Yes, but this incident was all political. You didn't read my article, did you?

The fans of this one team were the strongest group who had fought for the "revolution" against Mubarak (his military is still in power, killing and torturing demonstrators). In this game, mysterious instigators attacked them, claiming to be fans for the other team, and the military/police let it go on and on, killing 74 of the group which was and is critical of the military.

Soccer is ridiculous. From their 0-0 ties to their murders. Unless Alex Morgan is playing, I have no interest
