The Port Said Massacre

On the night of 1 February 2012, 74 people died in the deadliest stadium disaster in African football history. Al-Ahly had just beaten Al-Masry 3–1 in Port Said when the violence began. The gates were locked. The lights went out. Supporters were crushed and killed in the exits.
Egypt was nine months out of a revolution. The Ultras Ahlawy — Al-Ahly's organised supporters — had stood in Tahrir Square and fought the police in the streets. What happened that night has never been fully explained. The Egyptian authorities blamed a riot. Others called it a massacre. The trials lasted years and the questions have never been fully answered.
This is the full story of Port Said — the clubs, the revolution, the night itself, and the reckoning that followed.
