The two countries shared a hostile history; centuries of colonisation, wars and conflict. A few years earlier, Serbian hooligans were seen burning an Albanian flag. An incensed member of the Red and Black ultra group vowed his revenge. This is the story of how the greatest act of trolling in the history of football left him fearing for his life. Written by James Montague, illustrated by Philippe Fenner.
