‘“All sports clubs (in Indonesia) that compete between the cities are always intense,” Indonesian football analyst Dex Glenniza told CNN, who noted that it was “forbidden” for Arema and Persebaya supporters to visit each other’s stadiums.’

Of course it’s completely hohum for soccer matches to end in bloody slaughter all over the field, but UD wondered about this comment.

The slaughter wasn’t even about opposing fans – just the local guys unhappy that their guys lost. What an achievement.
