His name was Christian Zedig a 32-year-old Swedish off-duty police officer and father of two young daughters.
He was in Copenhagen for the World Cup, watching the matches in a fan zone at Islands Brygge.
While Norway vs Ivory Coast was on (just before Sweden-France), a group of 7-8 immigrants arrived looking for trouble. They began provoking Norwegian and Swedish fans, throwing beers and starting fights.
Christian, wearing the Sweden jersey, stepped in to calm the situation. He was punched hard in the head, knocked to the ground, and brutally kicked by several of them.
He was rushed to hospital with life-threatening injuries. His wife later posted that he was in a coma and she was preparing to say goodbye.
Copenhagen police have identified the main suspect and released his photo, he is still on the run.
The wife of Christian:
“You were so happy to travel to Copenhagen with Mathias to watch Sweden play France on the big screen. But you never got to see that match.
Just a few hours before kick-off, all that joy disappeared, and in a matter of seconds my whole life was turned upside down. Our children’s lives were turned upside down. Your life was taken from you.”
@savegrassroots Combat sports are completely obliterating football in modern day kids would rather learn how to defend themselves than kick a ball about
Absolutely scathing about Keir Starmer from Al Carns, who has just resigned. Massively digs out Starmer for prosecuting British war heroes. Good stuff.

>his girlfriend and baby were home with him
>he grabs a sword to protect them
yeah actually I am angry about this but not for the reason you think

We sat and knelt on a football pitch every single week for a black drugged up criminal in America for being killed by the police, let’s see the reaction to it happening to one of our own in this country, I bet it’s silent.
