Don't you just wonder what them Ronaldo and Messi were up to when these agbaya were fighting over who better pass? I mean they were probably in a different time zone. And i pretty sure Ronaldo had already cashed the cheque for the game someone was oh too busy fighting for no just cause? Na wa sha!
Three football fans were wounded in a free-for-all in a bar in Abakaliki on Saturday night over an argument about who is a better player between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
A Correspondent for the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) who witnessed the wahala reported that the incident occurred at the Kpirikpiri area of the town during the EURO 2016 second round match between Portugal and Croatia.
NAN also reports that Portugal won the match 1-0 courtesy of a Ricardo Quaresma 114th minute-extra time goal that sent them into the competition’s quarter-finals.
Trouble started when a Ronaldo supporter identified as “Marshal’’ celebrated widely as the Real Madrid star’s shot was parried into Quaresma’s path for the goal to the consternation of the Messi’s supporter named Obinna.
The duo had argued all night over the better player between both mega stars.
NAN reports that immediately Quaresma scored, Marshal rushed to Obinna and mocked him, chanting “I told you, I told you Ronaldo is the best’’.
Obinna who apparently was reeling with anger pushed Marshal and a fight ensued which made others inside the bar to intervene.
Matters, however, went out of hand when Marshal’s friends felt that Obinna’s friends were indirectly aiding him in the fight, thus making the fight instantly a free-for-all.
The bar owner, identified simply as Simon, rushed outside to invite people within the compound as those inside couldn’t control the situation.
However, calm was eventually restored but three persons, including Obinna were seriously wounded, while Simon immediately closed before the match could end.
On the development, Simon said that both fans always argued on the issue of Real Madrid and Barcelona superiority.
Dr Obiora Ike, a youth activist, decried the level of fanaticism being displayed by young soccer fans in the state, especially over foreign clubs and players.
DSP George Okafor, the State Police Command’s Public Relations Officer, said that the incident had not been officially reported.
He added that the command always dealt with such issues decisively.
What a weird time to be alive,so what if these guys are married, Can someone suggest how he'll tell his wife that he fought for free in this their recession? Or if they still leave with their folks? How will he mommy or daddy?
lol...
