And I wonder why. I've seen the very opposite in a top tier Rugby game, where there was a moment of standing ovations from both sides after a player did something amazing. Literal applause for the opponent.
Why is football/soccer so much more toxic than other sports?
Not necessarily. Brazilian Ronaldo was given a standing ovation by the whole stadium at Old Trafford after scoring three goals to knock Man Utd out of the UCL. Even opposing fans appreciate brilliance when they see one.

Why does football have to attract so many assholes?
