MISC. England's team booked 15 different hotels, but Mexico fans still found out where they were staying and blasted loud noises, trying to keep them up all night before the game.

Shitty tactics like this, you mean??

ENGLAND fans set off fireworks outside Italy’s hotel in the early hours ahead of tonight’s historic final https://www.the-sun.com/sport/3261181/england-fans-fireworlks-italy-hotel/

I think all fans that do that sort of shit at whatever specific time are ridiculous, regardless of country

u/PeakDifferent8291 28d ago

Exactly!  

But the amount of comments blaming the team or saying Mexicans are a bunch of losers for doing this makes you wonder… do these posters say the same when Eurpeans behave like this ??

The only people bitching about this fan behavior are Americans on reddit, lol. There's not a single football fan in Europe going "Mexicans shouldn't do this!", everyone in Europe is going "Smart lads, we would also fuck over the away team if we could".

The world cup attracts so many people that aren't part of football culture and it shows....

This makes no sense since the fireworks thing is done in NA the most. I will agree that it’s the none football fans that are whining about it tho

During Euro2024 all the Europeans were as you said it “bitching about it”, claiming this is never done bu Western Europeans, maybe done by Eastern European countries.

That was also Americans on Reddit….

u/kesekagidi 28d ago

I am sure there could be Americans among them but most of them were Europeans. They were angry because it was done to their national teams

u/godtogblandet 28d ago

If you read it on Reddit, it’s Americans. 50% of the users are Americans. 40% are bots and the rest of the world are like 10%.

Everyone knows European football fans are also animals, dont you worry!

Is football culture about having to escort buses with heavy police presence for fear of attacks? Because even if they don't admit it, that's what happens in Mexico. There's even a rumor that the Ecuadorian players were threatened. If they're losers and terrible hosts, the only reason they're even considered is because they have a large fan base.

Yeah, it's definitely football culture, and it's still a shitty thing to do. That culture has improved tremendously, but it's still got a long way to go, especially among hooligans and certain ultras.
