The Brazilian police were wrong and completely overreacted to the situation, to me it’s like they were almost looking for it. There have been a few instances of Brazilian police going OTT with footy fans and it needs to be discussed.
At the same time, Argentina fans were racist, have been racist in the past and show no sign of stopping their racism. They also need to dealt with properly by FIFA, this is a consistent issue.
Oh shut the fuck up it's not like they're doing the nazi salute riding king tiger tanks menacing the stadium, there's no "at the same time", a small group of argentines said some racist shit in a heated argument with brazillians, this stuff happens on spanish pitches when they get heated, on italian pitches when they get heated, on english pitches when they get heated, hell, even brazillian domestic pitches when they get heated
This isn't on the Argentine fans, I assure you most of them went there to have a good time at the temple of football that is maracaná, only to have a traumatic experience
