    Some people think that France has been getting preferential treatment in the empathy department lately. After all there were terrorist attacks in Lebanon recently and other disasters around the world but those went largely ignored. I could see how that could irritate some people and the fact that the moment of silence was mandatory at all the European games might have only aggravated that feeling for some. Plus there are stupid people at every game.

    Only white people were killed on friday ?

    You are aware that they did the same thing a month ago during the minute of silence for the victims of Ankanra ? It nullifies that excuse.

    i can guarantee they don't like to be silent. i was at france-turkey a few years ago and for 90 minutes their end was batshit pandemonium.

    but before and after outside the stadium was bon enfant. very cool.
