The Czech right back with Ethiopian origins is subjected to racial taunts and monkey chants during the match against Russia. This follows similar incidents at the Dutch training grounds a day earlier. A number of fans also attacked the stewards injuring four of them after the Russia vs Czech Republic match was over.

the world is full of bad people. you just cannot prevent 'fans' from doing so. It's their attitude, their drunkness... these people come to provoke, to fight with other fans later.
A group of people always seek for things to identify with. A typical way to do so, is to blame or to insult someone they all can agree upon.
Most common are hooligans which you can find in every country. racism is everywhere. it is sad indeed. but i believe in respect und the good people :)

It turns out to be a bad decision to host such a tournament in these countries as they don't deserved it at all!
