TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - As France made it to the World Cup final for the first time in 12 years, Les Blues supporters went on a rampage in Paris. Some celebrations left fans in tears, although it might have been tear gas rather than happiness that made fans cry.
Thousands of people gathered at the Elysian Fields; some of them were throwing flares. Reports surfaced in the media that police had fired tear gas at disorderly fans to disperse them.
