bigger story than I realized

Apparently the ugliness is going between the countries at governmental level already. I somehow missed this story during the day…

“Egypt recalls Algerian envoy as football row deepens

The Egyptian government has recalled its ambassador to Algeria following complaints about violence towards football fans, reports say.

The move comes hours after Algeria’s ambassador in Cairo was summoned to the Egyptian foreign ministry.

Sudan has also summoned the Egyptian envoy in Khartoum, angry at Egyptian media coverage of the game’s aftermath.”

Anyone know of another case where relations between two countries were pretty much destroyed over a series of football matches?
