A couple of days ago I descended into the Metro to find the place swarming with riot police. The trains, too, were crowded with yelling groups of people and more riot police. Was it a political demonstration? Were people taking to the streets? Some kind of Halloween event? Then I saw everyone wearing the same scarves amd I realzed what was going on.
A football match.
I wonder what it is about football that has enraptured the rest of the world but has so completely escaped us Americans.

Perhaps it's because, unlike American football, you can actually see the players -- no helmets, pads, etc.
