Equipped with large rubbish bags they brought along, the youths marched through the rows picking up rubbish, to leave the place just as neat as they had found it.
Ahmed Nageh, who launched the initiative, said in a TV interview that he did not coordinate with any official authority with regard to the initiative, he, however, decided to imitate the civilized attitude of the Japanese fans.
