...soccer crowds in 1980, when 50 fans were arrested and fined for setting off firecrackers and hurling broken glass during a match between the National Football team and Britain's Norwich City. Just last month party officials issued instructions for maintaining order and promoting good sportsmanship at soccer matches.
