Police detained 97 people after violent riots linked to last Sunday’s Stockholm derby match.
Pro Pontus Jansson, 31, criticizes the events one-sidedly:
It is better if they fight outside the squares, says the center-back star.
The Stockholm derby between AIK and Hammarby last Sunday at Friends was a party in front of nearly 45,000 spectators as long as the match was going on. After the final whistle, fans of both teams clashed in the stands and made their way past various barriers.
Fans fought and threw fireworks at each other.
Will settle in Orsta
Later in the evening, 97 people were arrested before an impending confrontation in Orsta.
“One of the gangs fell by train and the others came in cars and were going to fight there, and we evaluated it,” said Ola Osterling at the police headquarters.
In a longer interview with Sportbladet, he expressed himself pontos anise Even about the derby, the deadliest rioting in Swedish football for several years.
The captain of Brentford’s Premier League side wore Malmö FF boots when he was younger and has one foot in the most committed part of fan culture.
What does Pontus Jansson, a football fan, say about the scenes of the Stockholm derby?
The 18-year-old fan said he’s cool and that he belongs. Pontus, 31, a father of two, believes this should be taken care of off the court.
“Since I have friends and I move myself in those circles, I know that organized battles exist and I have no problem with that,” says Pontus Jansson.
Although people are at risk of infection?
– I don’t encourage brawling, but with groups that fight after all, there are some noble rules. But I could have done without her, too.
“Part of Reality”
The difficult thing about these discussions about standing culture in Sweden is that some negative things come with all the positive things they bring. In super-life culture, you can’t just take the best pieces of cake out because they’ll die then.
– It should not happen in the squares because innocent people then risk being caught.
But if supporters are injured outside the squares, health care and police will be overburdened.
– People do not need to fight, but this is part of the reality. So if that happens, it’s better outside the yards than inside. Of course, it’s never good for people to get infected, says Pontus Jansson.
