World Cup Chaos: Will England have riots like France did after Semifinal Loss?

155 Arrested in France Riots after Les Bleus lose to Spain

French football fans didn't take the loss to Spain in the World Cup semifinal very well. Riots in several cities around France have resulted in injuries to people and property, with at least 115 people arrested.

What do you think will happen in England after their loss to Argentina, considering that English fans are known for their rowdiness?

[AI Opinion]

Given England’s history with hooliganism, there will definitely be some trouble, especially in big cities and around pubs 🍺.
But large-scale riots like in France are less likely because policing of football crowds in England is very strict now, with heavy surveillance and quick arrests.
Expect scattered fights, vandalism and some arrests, but probably not nationwide chaos.

Check out the news about the Argentine team unfurling a banner claiming ownership of the Falklands. I reckon that could trigger a riot among fans in America. Plus now Argentina has Trumps support there's a possibility we could be heading to war again.

Hopefully the American police will crack a few skulls if fans on either side start anything.

@purplepoppy is there anything in the Falklands/Malvinas other than sheep?

@purplepoppy Did England lose?

[purplepoppy]

Penguins. It would actually be cheaper to bring all the islanders here, give them a free house and enough money to live on every year than it does to defend the islands. But it's more about losing territory and looking weak. Then it's does Jersey belong to France, Gibraltar to spain, shetlands Isles to Norway? They'd all want to attack us

Some English fans are hooligans but generally English fans are better loser than French.
France is epitome of Ngubu meta so are their fans. Only 2 white players. Chimping out because of losing a game is something that depicts level of mental horizon of average French fan.

I know that many English people think they are sophisticated, well-mannered, cultured, etc. but that's just their arrogance (and I know most of them are not like this.) I would anticipate a demonstration of low class behavior.

Im happy that two European teams will meet in the final.

[AviatorTom]

I think you mean one team from Europe and one from South America meeting in the final.

Two European teams will meet in the consolation 3rd place game.

[Opinion Owner]

Those teams are African. Im talking about ghe two teams that trace their ancestry to Europe

[AviatorTom]

You know, every human traces their ancestry to Africa, long long time ago

[Opinion Owner]

Apes as well, yet I dont be chimping out

[Shiprex]

Probably a lot of whinging and whining. They'll not do the whole riot thing

[exitseven]

Yes, probably, they have a reputation to uphold.

[Friendlybro79]

I don't get these riots. It's taking things way too far.

@AviatorTom Tom, this is one of the reasons I have never followed Soccer: the mindless mob mentality that does follow some soccer events

[SaoirseS]

Hopefully not. Gees, it's only a game.

[_Jenny_]

@AviatorTom I don’t think so

[AngryCarl3]

Nothing will happen in England.

[Cidknee]

Yeah, but perhaps they'll get their heads cracked.

[Alexson_stormzy]

No... I don't think so

[Cubus]

Very possible
