SEDAN cup | Being ultra is a nice hobby. There some men gather, paint flags with brightly colored motifs, sing songs together and light flares, all to encourage other men playing football. If it weren't for Downer's willingness to use violence and proximity to right-wing extremists that runs through some ultra scenes, it would almost be a men's self-help group in the most positive sense. But unfortunately it's not as easy as ultra, especially when it comes to pyromania. The DFB does not like Bengalis at all and regularly imposes heavy fines on clubs whose fans have rioted. And what best helps against this repression? Okay, sing.
