Soccer in many parts of the world is more like a war without weapons.

In soo many places like EU and Africa the 2 sides hate each other, not just over old rivalries in the sport, but usually over centuries of hatred between peoples, religions, governments, etc.. Even in the same country there are deep hatreds between peoples and each of those peoples have a soccer team, and these games are when they can get close to each other so its always tense filled and can blow over into violence.

I´m honestly surprised in many parts of the world that there isn't more violence.
