Final Games Evoke Passions Off the Football Field

Posted 2873 days ago
Old Trafford Stadium, Manchester United

Football in Europe has been stood on its head by some over the top actions from fans. Turkey was witness to not the best of coping mechanisms when it came to disappointment from the home team. Meanwhile in the EPL, the specter of the FA Cup Final on May 21st effected two matches on Saturday. See how Southampton benefited from this occasion right now as we bring the pivotal football news from this last weekend.

Relegation is Rough Business

Part of the passion in being at the match is all the ways that fans can support their teams in the stands. Chants, drums, songs, and even pyrotechnics are par for the course to spur victory on. Alas, some leagues take a lack of success better than others. Eskisehirspor has had a good run since they were founded and put in the first tier of the Turkish League. Facing relegation at home, they lost 2-1 which sealed their fate for demotion. That the fans did not take it well is an understatement as they basically lit anything that was flammable in the stands and the field. Several media outlets including Sports Illustrated provided video footage of the carnage inflicted by their own loyal fans.

Distractions Do Not Damper Southampton Celebration

Even when they are caught napping, a win is still worth three points in the EPL. South Hampton got to host a Crystal Palace with bigger fish to fry next week. FA Cup Final against Manchester United had the visitors effectively sleepwalking in this one. The Saints made the most of the situation to win 4-1. What was vital here is that Southampton now qualifies for the Europa League. Quite a spring comeback to make it this far and at the expense of West Ham to boot.

Controlled Explosion

A scare at Old Trafford resulted in the abandonment of the Manchester United verses Bournemouth. The logistics of having to reschedule any match but especially the last one in the regular season grates on everyone's nerves. A device was reported which resulted in all the fans being evacuated. A controlled explosion was carried out so there was at least some cause to be concerned for the public's safety. Now everyone has to come back on Tuesday to do it all over again. This leads to Manchester United being at a disadvantage in the FA Cup Final because of the short turnaround time from now until Saturday the 21st.

High stakes of the last game brought out odd reactions from those involved. Southampton benefited with a Europa League birth from in essence a walkover from Crystal Palace. Manchester United is at a disadvantage for the FA Cup Final because of a bomb hoax forcing a reschedule of their last game. Finally, the locales in Turkey love their football but lost their minds when Eskisehirspor fell down the ladder of relegation. Good fortune following football and enjoy the FA Cup Final on Saturday, May 21st.
