- For over a year we have together, with the help of ABIN (Brazilian Intelligence Agency) and the Federal Police to be their coming to Manaus. Overall, we collected data all the time and we're watching these thugs fans, and there is no evidence that they are in town. But do not disregard the chance of finding hooligans on game day in Manaus and we are prepared for it - said the colonel.

The preparation for a possible encounter with the famous high violence by England fans includes a "comb" at the stadium entrance. 

- We are all watching their movement through the city. We have the intelligence within hotels and attractions in keeping informed about the tourists. On game day, we will have strong screening at the entrance of the Arena, to ensure that no supporter of weapons or objects that may pose a risk. The English will be subject to it, a little more than other fans, if they have a history - informed.

And as a "weapon" Main, 60 police officers were black belts specially scaled to contain any conflict between fans.

- Fighting violence with violence, everyone knows what does not. So we get 60 specially trained to contain riots seriously police. Skilled in martial arts like jujitsu and judo, they are trained to get exercise restraining or some other blow without causing injury or injuries. Only to contain. Are the best we have - the general commander of the exalted PM.

In England, a measure aims to avoid problems during the World Cup in Brazil. The passports of hooligans banned from stadiums were confiscated by the police before the world to avoid problems.In total, more than 1400 English fans considered violent were ordered to surrender their passports to the police. Based on this, Colonel Almir underlies the thesis that few fans should offer risk match against the Italians.
