“Eight Brazilian football fans shot dead, Sao paolo shootings take place a day before Corinhians clash with local rivals Parmerias”
In the last class, we discuss the article about football in South America. The summary and my opinion are as follows.
1) The summary of the article
Eight football fans were gunned down ahead of a semi-final match at the Corinthians fan club headquarters in Sao Paulo.
The shooting was confirmed by a Corinthians club official to AFP. The source noted the fan club is not affiliated with the official Corinthians football squad. And the team tweeted “Mourning” at ahead of semi-final game.
Brazil football matches have been tainted by violence in the past. Police shot and killed a teenager when clashes erupted between rival football hooligans near Porto Alegre in the south of Brazil. It is estimated around 30 people died in football violence in the country in 2013.

2) Opinion
I think Brazilian football fans have passion for football.
Passion is very good. But violence is not good and it is not support for football.It is not defile the football by violence.
So we have to think how to stop violence from Brazilian football. I make the two proposals for violence stop.
First, to make a call for violence stop. For example, to make many posters and emphasize “Mourning” voice. Football fan loves football. So I think if team say “Mourning”, they stop violence.
Second, the official Corinthians football squad affiliated with the fan club. I think if official squad take care to fan, they do not violence each other.
In conclusion, Brazilian football fan have to stop violence. Therefore official football squad and region cooperation are necessary.
