Great read. Thankfully, hooliganism has mostly been kept in check in the 21st century.

Thanks! Sometimes there are sporadic episodes of violence, but nothing comparable to this carnage!

Interesting read. It’s tragic when a much loved sport is ruined by mindless individuals like this.

The Heysel tragedy is a compelling story, experienced by thousands of people on that day, If you interview each of them, you will have thousands of different versions of that night. On the other hand, it remains a tragedy, and we have to pay homage to those who died.
