Article Abstract:

The author argues that the championship soccer match for the 2000 Europa Cup was poorly managed. The small venue, the practice of reserving large blocks of tickets for corporate sponsors, and making few provisions for the many who could not attend the game encouraged a chair-throwing melee.

Article Abstract:
