Salute you, Portuguese kid!

This kid, yesterday after the Portugal-France final match of Euro Cup 2016, he consoled the French fan while he was crying. It is so beautiful behavior, and I want to thank to this kid from here! He left his happiness in a moment and he thought to console the opposing team’s fan. And with this behavior, he showed me there is still hope for this planet!

I am losing my trust to humankind sometimes, but this scene caused to gain my trust back again. Maybe we don’t need too much thing to believe or trust, maybe we don’t need to look at the far away points. Here it is, this kid wrote just in 30 seconds how humanity should be, without the need to write hundreds pages of book about this.

Also, there were many scene we have seen in Euro 2016. If I started from last match, a moth have made a show. 🙂 This moth landed to Ronaldo’s eyelash, while he was in suffer. After Ronaldo injured this moth showed itself, and maybe it wanted to be a super hero moth 🙂 I have no idea why it made this show, but it was incredible!

I think one of the most interesting football player has been Ricardo Quaresma who is a football player in Besiktas team in Turkey and Portugal National Team at Euro Cup 1016. He is really good midfield player and forvet, but I am not sure how can he make many goals while he is playing in midfield, maybe he is kind of midfiled-forvet mix:) He showed himself with enjoyable play and the olive leaf at his head on final match of Euro 2016. It is being said this leaf is their national symbol. Maybe it is I don’t know, I only know Turkish’s and Greek’s olive:) But this leaf seemed very cool, no doubt!

When these were living into the football field at final match yesterday, French police was spraying the pepper gas to the French people out of the football field. After 6 pm the French police sprayed the pepper spray to the football fans at Fan Zone, because of they claimed that the enterence to the Fan Zone is forbidden after 6 pm.

If you don’t have money or you couldn’t find a ticket you can meet with pepper spray! This is another kind of rule of this system. And I don’t know have you ever tasted the pepper spray, my Earthling friends. It is painfull according to my experiences and, highly no recommended by me! 🙂

If I turned back into Euro Cup, we have seen many ugly things besides the good things. Especially, the war between British and Russian fans in Marseille, or British fans who threw coins to the refugees children. Yes, we had seen at March, PSV Eindhoven fans had made similar humiliation to the Gypsy children at Champions League.

And very first time at their history , North Ireland joined to Euro Cup in this year. And their opposite team had been Ukraine for a match. While the match was playing on field, the Ukranian fascists were showed their Nazi tattoos on tribunes. And these tattoos weren’t be usefull again, because Ukraine defeated with 2 goals by North Ireland 🙂

I started to my post with very beatiful kid. And I want to finish this post with very beatiful football team. This team is National Football Team of Iceland. They gave joy to all of us when they played their football game at Euro 2016. We have learnt and seen Iceland team in very first time. They were incredible! Even not only with their game, for example we learnt how we can call the whales? Yes 🙂 While the football team was on field the fans of Iceland on tribunes chanted this way:

After these scenes, we learnt that this ovation was made by Icelanders to call the whales. Very interesting! The team of Iceland with their good football, they came to the quarterfinals of Euro 2016. This is very big success for a team which joins first time at Cup. And the Iceland people met their team with ceremony when the team turned back motherland, and of course with whale call 🙂 Here it is:

At this video it is written “Viking war chant” as tittle. But I am very sure this chant meaning is firstly “to call whales”. Maybe this can be another mean or RT video makers made wrong.

Also, I’ve watched a video on youtube about Iceland football team, and a man was saying that: “We don’t have an army, if we go the war, we would easily be defeated. This is kind of army for us.”

Icelanders, I think you should be proud of yourself, if you don’t have army. This meaning is you are very peaceful people. Please you build your army over the sport or other good things. We loved you with this kind of army! And, thank you to Icelanders, because you showed us the soul of Vikings 🙂

 

 

 

 

Fairplay

 Battle of Marseille: Violent fans hurl missiles, clash with police ahead of Russia-England match
At least 10 people have been injured, and a man is in critical condition, after clashes broke out between hundreds of Russian and English fans in Marseille, ahead of their teams’ opening game of Euro 2016.

The head of All-Russian Fans’ Union, Alexander Sprygin, told Reuters that English fans were “drinking a lot and behaving badly” prior to the outbreak of violence outside the Queen Victoria pub in the Old Port area of the city.

And all we say that, let the games begin 🙂

By the way, according to global peace index of 2016, there are only 10 countries where not living conflict and terror events during last 10 years. These are Botswana, Chile, Costa Rica, Japan, Mauritius, Panama, Qatar, Switzerland, Uruguay and Vietnam are free from conflict. My favorite country inside them, Uruguay!!

Only 10 countries of 194 countries of planet Earth. When looking at the videos of this post, 10 is very enough for the Earthlings:)

 

A first in the world history! A football supporters group Çarşı is standing trial, attempting to overthrow the government through coup d’etat in Turkey

As related to occupy-Gezi events in June 2013, 35 people who are members of Beşiktaş football teams supporter group Çarşı appeared in court Dec 16, 2014 due to the charges “to attempt to eliminate Turkey Republic Government or to prevent government’s tasks partly or completely with using force and violence. Defendants’ defenses continue at first case.

The interesting and tragicomic dialogues are between defendants Çarşı members and judge who is president of court as follows.

“This would be your first yellow card”

The judge has made an interesting offer to the defendants:
“Now, you understand football”, he said with pointing the law of “supervised release” and added:
“Accept this charges and this would be your first yellow card. And you don’t take the second yellow card in 5 years.”
However the defendants wanted acquittal, saying they don’t lean towards this offer.

“We are going to displacement hall.”

There was so large crowd of supporters in Istanbul court, the court room has changed. Beşiktaş lawyers said “We don’t fit into this room, let’s go the big saloon.”
“The people who are not the defendant’s lawyers and relatives get out the hall” the words of Court board, supporters and lawyers protested with applause. A result of the reactions the court has decided to change the room.
The supporters said when they changed the court room:
“We are going to displacement hall.”

“If we had the power for coup d’etat, we would have made the league champion to Beşiktaş.”

Judge- Are you the leader of the organization, did you help to coup d’etat even if just a bit?
Defendant-Nobody give orders to the others in Çarşı. We are against coup d’etat. If we had the power for coup d’etat, we would have made the league champion to Beşiktaş. You would ask the questions based on concrete things, not over the phone records.

“I had no driver’s license, I can not drive TOMA”

Judge- My son, you said that we have captured the TOMA(police water cannon vehicle)
Defendant- Mr. Judge, I had no driver’s license at the time, I can not even ride a bike.

“We have a match with Liverpool. I want my lifting a ban on leaving the country”

One of the defendants in the defense concerning the telephone conversation recording:
“When I said that I die in here or I will resist on the phone to my girl friend, I wanted to make a show of her. The thing in the bottle which was found is water, not explosive. I have a request; I am fan of Beşiktaş. We have a match with Liverpool. Because of that I want my lifting a ban on leaving the country,” he said.

“My banners are world-renowned”

Another defendant:
“I didn’t join in any walk. I didn’t come face to face with police. I am one of 2-3 people who established Çarşı. My banners are world-renowned. I use masks when I made the banner. The masks which found in my house are these,” he said.

In the same hours, Melda Onur, who is Istanbul deputy of CHP, which is one of the opposition political party in Turkey went up to the rostrum at Grand National Assembly of Turkey with Çarşı t-shirt to support to Çarşı group.

Russian-style fun

This fight happened between Yekaterinburg and Chelyabinsk football team fans.

According to the news, 38 people were attended this event. The participants gathered on buses, greeted each other, and after a scuffle expressed gratitude for their participation. No one was hurt seriously.

And according to me, it was really fair play and it seems real funny:)))
