Follow up on the Yogyakarta derby

Yesterday's game between PSIM Yogyakarta and PSS Sleman was abandonded on 66 minutes. In my write up yesterday I mentioned how visiting players were pelted with rocks and after the second incident the ref took the players off the field.

PSIM fans tried to calm down the hotheads, ususally by waving their arms around and by yelling oi, oi, but what happened next only made matters worse. Tear gas was fired at the supporters, and hooligans, indiscriminately reducing everyone in the area to tears. This of course only inflamed tempers even more and spectators invaded the pitch and broke a few things.

The visiting players and supporters weren't able to get away from the stadium until about 7.30 as officials tried to prevent the situation from worsening while several fans were taken to local hospitals.

Hmm...

Comments:
according to my friend who was watching the game, that was the police fault by fueling more problem to the crowd, tear gas wasn't necessary though, there was this police that was really angry to this bunch of people above him. So he pulled the trigger...
