Are there any Tebow-like players who, after winning a game, bow down toward Mecca? Or do all of them do that?

Unlike Somalia where just listening to the soccer on radio can get you executed by the local Muslim loonies.
If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.

Have to agree with mehmet here. Hooligans come in all shapes, sizes, and religions. Stuff like this happens in every country.

'Still, I'd expect such a stampede in England, where football hooliganism seems to be more prevailant, and of course, has a worldwide reputation.'
Reputation, yes.
Expect a stampede in England, can you be serious? When since the late 80's and early 90's have we had problems? Try closer to home Mehmet.
Football hooliganism has died in the UK, of course some still do it, I know a couple of hoolies, but they say it's died. Try another country like Italy, Greece, Turkey or Holland.
But I do agree that it happens anywhere, but your stereotype of England is laughable given the reputation of Turkish fans, which is more correct to this era.
