As the world mourns victims of last Friday’s terror attacks in Paris, soccer fans in Turkey appeared to express their dissent (http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/11/17/us-soccer-friendly-turkey-idUSKCN0T62LY20151117#PB8SvmqwDx95edAq.97)for the observances taking place at several public gatherings in Istanbul on Tuesday.The Turkish supporters booed the minute’s silence observed for the 129 victims of last week’s attacks before their team’s game against Greece, Reuters reported.
According to other reports (https://twitter.com/ecetoksabay/status/666685293924216832?lang=en) and video uploaded to social media, many also shouted “Allahu Akbar” (God is the greatest) as both teams stood on the field in silence.
The friendly game, attended by Prime Ministers of both countries, was uneventful aside from the incident, with both teams playing out a 0-0 tie.

Greece v Turkey- a "friendly" game?

Sad that the Turks couldn't observe a moment of silence.

This did little to dispel the myth of "moderate" Islam. Liberals just can't come to grips with the truth.

Funny how now the article has changed since the original post. Perhaps a mistake by time and reuters? Or more clarity

granted, even if it was a chant of support, do it after the moment of silence

It wasn't a chant of support (unless you mean support of ISIS) and it wasn't the only soccer stadium in a Muslem country m that celebrated the attack during a moment of silence for Paris last week.

Do you speak the language? Can you tell what they are saying or are you trusting others? As for the other celebrations, show some sources. I'd love to read on it
