Another controversial sequence of events which has close correlations to the events in Paris has become very broadcasted and popular. The first being an event which occurred at a football game on Tuesday night, which saw Turkey hosting Greece for an international friendly. During this night many other international games were being held, all at which had panned out a moment of silence to remember the lives lost in Paris, this game included. However, during this moment of silence many of the Turkish supporters in the stands began chanting. Initially these chants were interpreted very poorly, as majority of people assumed the manner in which the media has presented this event was correct, which stated that this fans were in fact booing the peaceful gesture. This has shown the negative impacts terrorism can bring in terms of dividing cultures, and ruining sports games. Another incident in Germany saw a match cancelled, several days after the Paris incident, as an ambulance was discovered filled with explosives Contorversy has arose as a result of this in question of terrorism ruining “the beautiful game”. Revenue brought in from this matches could take a serious hit given the negative image being received at the moment. Consideration could be taken into issuing bans to these fans, based on the lack of respect they have shown for the game, and the lives that were lost.
