Anti-Semitic incidents were observed during the cross-town rivalry of football teams from Rzeszow (Resovia and Stal). A banner appeared in the stands occupied by Resovia fans with the slogan ‘Death to beak noses’, as well as a huge canvas with the caricature of a Jew wearing a skull cap in the colours of blue and white, which are the colours of the Stal team.
