Riots in playgrounds are a very familiar sight now. Major events like the World Cup, Copa America, Euros have seen violent clashes between spectators. He also touched the UEFA Nations League match. The Tulkalam incident happened in the France-Israel match last night.
At the Stade de France, the France-Israel match of the Nations League was disrupted during the national anthem. Spectators in the gallery booed and whistled during Israel's national anthem. It is then played over a loudspeaker. Clashes broke out between fans and supporters during the match. However, no clear reason for the clash is known. Israel fans blow yellow balloons into the gallery. 'Release the hostages'-slogan repeatedly.
Travel for sporting events was banned by the Israeli government. Defying the ban, about 100 Israeli fans sat in a corner of the Stade de France. Relatively less visitors to the gallery due to security concerns. Where the stadium holds 80 thousand spectators, 16 thousand 611 came to watch the game yesterday. Which is the lowest since the opening of the stadium in 1998, according to a Reuters report.
The events of the France-Israel match did not stop only on the field. As many as 100 people were seen chanting anti-Israel slogans in the Saint Denis district of Paris. A Palestinian flag was seen flying there. A few people also had the flags of Lebanon and Algeria in their hands. Their protest was against the France-Israel match. Two Palestinian flags were displayed at the south end of the Stade de France stadium after the match. One of the banners read, 'We will not play with genocide.' This is because of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, which no one can understand.
The much-talked-about France-Israel match of the Nations League ended in a goalless draw. Possessing 71 percent of the ball, France made 8 shots on target. Israel had 29 percent of possession. They had only 1 shot on target. France expressed disappointment with the match being drawn.
As many as 4,000 French security personnel were deployed in and around the stadium yesterday. Such a security zone is mainly due to the fear of conflict a few days ago. Where last Thursday Maccabi Tel Aviv-Ajax match there was a terrible attack on Israeli football fans.
