4. How do you behave towards the supporters of the other team? Do you cheer them? Are you happy for them? Do you congratulate them? Expected answers: Shout , use bad language (foul language) , fight, hit, punch, damage property (there is vandalism, hooliganism). Watch this short film and write down how it makes you feel. Mention 3 things. Really proud, happy, fascinated, thrilled, excited, enthusiastic. Teacher says: You said that you support different teams but it seems that you all (as well as all the thousands of people who watched these football matches) feel the same. We all feel proud when our National team wins. So sport does not only have the power to…… divide but it also……brings us together / unites. Then the students read a newspaper article which appeared on Facebookon Greece’s Triumph in the Euro 2004 championship. Students are asked to work individually and then compare their answers in pairs. ©Υπουργείο Παιδείας και Πολιτισμού
