HOOLIGANS

A hooligan is a person who cause disturbance in the streets and who usually participate in fights or acts related to vandalism while he or she is supporting a soccer team.

The word hooligan is mainly used to talk about the soccer supporters from Britain, who before, during and after some matches have violent attitudes. However, there aren't hooligans just in Britain's football, they are also common in Argentina, Spain, Italy and many other countries.

In my opinion, the biggest problem with those people isn't the material damage they cause by breaking bins, destroying pubs or messing the streets; it's the feeling of fear that they make some people (even kids) have while they are trying to have fun supporting their team peacefully and the unnecessary deaths they sometimes cause.

I think those people who use the excuse of soccer to get involved in fights or different acts of vandalism must be seriously punished, because they are messing football reputation and bothering people who really like soccer.
