The degenerate behaviour of Japanese football fans has been roundly criticised after they ran amok in central Shibuya, blocking traffic and clambering over cars in a manner more reminiscent of common European football thuggery than the reserved support more usually associated with Japanese.
The mob blocked Shibuya’s famed scramble crossing in an unyielding throng, and were witnessed jumping on top of a hapless taxi and engaging in other raucous behaviour.
Online their antics earned them nothing but disgust, with anger at the police’s failure to arrest them and the usual attempts to claim they “were clearly not Japanese,” or at the very least were merely watery blooded bumpkins from outside Tokyo.

Meh. Definitely not worse than Serbian hooligans.
Or any other football hooligans in general.
Or any other hooligans in general.
Or any other in general.
If I were in a car I would have just plowed right through the intersection, full throttle while drifting. That'll teach them a lesson.
@Anon 12:33- Cool story bro. Do you want a cracker?
@Anon 10:42 - Then they'll put you in prison. That'll teach you a lesson.
i'd still feel safe in that. in the us or any where else i'd be hiding
And you wouldn't even be sure they don't invade.
These people always have so much energy. Maybe they should play the sport themselves instead of orgasming over the achievements of their fellow countrymen.
Are you stupid? Most fans enjoy playing football...
Did a massive orgy full of bukkake take place afterwards?
I heard some disturbing rumours about how some football fans in the UK don't care about the sport at all and just go for the fights afterwards.
Stop picking on the Irish. Isn't it bad enough people stereotype them as chronic, habitual drunks in other parts of the world?
"Some football fans in UK" = hooligans = Irish.
Seriously?
If you're going to keep the silly stereotypes alive, could you at least not mash them all together.
Half the time "Irish football fan" doesn't even mean a fan of soccer; it means a fan of G.A.A.
Yes its a real sport. Its even on the PS2

Correct way to troll the Irish:
Irish = English (not as effective as it used to be)
"Ireland is not a country"
GAA = GAY (doesn't work on soccer fans)
Ways that don't work/Incorrect ways to troll the Irish
Irish are drunks (doesn't work. Anyone who isn't a drunk feels everyone else is)
Irish are thugs (doesn't work. Lower than average European crime)
Signed - Cú
(actual Irishman who believes in quality trolling)
Irishman - insufficient balls to wear a kilt.
thats definition for russians
There's always something interesting where there's a crowd, and you usually don't play football in throngs of that sort of caliber.
IT ALL STARTED WITH HOCKEY~!
BLEACHERS LOOK LIKE THIS DURING THE GAME!
triti
No Flipping cars, no braking windows, and no setting fires. Way can't all sport riots be like this?
Copyright issues.
Bad as english ?? xD Bitch please. Not even close to UK's and Polish ;].
Hence the "almost"
But yeah, you're right. NOT EVEN CLOSE. As far as I can see, no car has been set on fire. Nor do I see cops firing up the water guns. This is total BS, Sancom.
Another football game brings out the assholes.
No surprise there.
Well, that's sports fans for you, all crazy. Their team win? Riot!!! Their team lose? Riot!!! Find the logic in there... there's any.
And God forbid there be draws. Everybody hates draws.
There is no such thing as a "draw" in football. Every match has a winner.
This happened after a SOCCER game. Not American "football".
So draws can result, if the game is not a cup game.
You misspelt handegg.
Football fans? All I see is a heard of zombies.
I was thinking more in the line of a zerg rush. Zombies are not that organized.
A heard of zombies. Is that like a herd of zombies but you hear them before you see them?
Maybe if they're not rotten enough.
"almost as bad as the English"
Excuse me, in order to be "almost" as bad as the English, there needs to be at least 5 flaming objects in a photo. Not including homosexuals for the cynical minded.
This includes, tires, beer bottles, trashcans, flags, shirts, hair and or shoes. For supporters of the winning team.
For supporters of the losing team, there is clearly not enough blood in these images.
Why can't all "riots" be this civil?
@ Anon 01:51
You just made my day but I think I crapped my
pants laughing too hard! Good one mate!
It's not "civil" as it is "eco-friendly". They're just adverse to all the fumes haphazard burning would cause.
I'm sure they found other inappropriate ways to express their rancorous delight.
The new competitive sport is "hooliganism", coming to the Olympics in 2016. Whose country will win gold for the worst fans? Tune in to find out!
Actually, I feel hooliganism debuted at olympics long before Munich or Moscow.
Maybe Greece or Turkey or something like that
I saw the videos, based on that all I manage to see was the usual Artefact crap antics, outside the one guy who climb the taxi cab, what is exactly the hooliganism these people are making?
I'm sorry but I'm just seeing people celebrating, okay, they're not acting like the usual reserved japanese behaviour, but if you look at videos of Japanese fans during the World Cup you will see that they're acting pretty much like their usual.
BTW, hooligans are not real soccer fans, they're merely thugs who are using a soccer game as an excuse to beat and create as much mess as they can, 99% of the real soccer fans hate these pricks, this shit happens with many other sports and in many other countries too (look at records of hooligans with Hockey in Canada or AFL in Australia), the stupid people who say that they hate soccer because of hooligans don't know nothing about what being a soccer fan really means.
You call this a riot? Pussies.
Pft as bad as english? japs are so lightweight, this sort of crap doesn't compare to shit done by many european hooligans. once they start killing each other with axes and set up brawls outside fields you can think about going to european level.
This article is as funny as japanese bike gangs playing with scooters.
EXACTLY.
"My little Japanese football riot can't be this cute!"
another reason I'm ok w/ the fact that the US will never be big on football/soccer
Because fans of American football are so well-behaved and polite?
i know the japanese like their football but i didnt think it could rival britain for it's thuggishness
In Japan, you are hated if you're a football fan, you are shunned if you're an anime fan, and you are banned if you have a tattoo. They really want everyone to conform into mindless drones.
No. It's because football fans act like the above story - like crazy hooligans. Anime fans don't do anything to advance the civilization and sit at home not doing anything but kissing their pillows, and the tattoo is probably because... I don't know. Maybe because tattoo's have a negative connotation to them. They mainly associate with gangs and stuff like that. Biker gangs and stuff. Not that everyone who wears a tattoo is a bad person, but I'm pretty sure the Japanese Yakuza all have tattoos on their bodies.
At least you know about the fans, then. Mostly helpful, thank you.
The Dollars are having an offline meeting in Shibuya.
Meh! I see no looting, pillaging and raping, and hell, at least they are not fucking gingers!
