Fightin' Round the World

Video: Anyone up for some Brazilian police brutality?

Unarmed female fan beaten like a ginger stepchild

Our friends across the Atlantic and south of the equator love nothing better than combining football with pure unadulterated violence (evidence here, here, here and here), and this time the poilce have been careful to deliver an appropriate level of force to a troublesome fan.

    Once again, I think I safely speak for all of us, when I say if that happened in England, Fifa would come down on the F.A like a fly on shit.

    I’m still amazed that players take corners beneath riot shields in Brazil due to the crowd chucking coins, lighters, sinks, small mammals etc at them as they stray within range.
    Someone once said: “I think I safely speak for all of us, when I say if that happened in England, Fifa would come down on the F.A like a fly on shit.”

    Yep.
