In experiments, scientists scanned football fans' brains to see how activity differed as they watched their team win or lose.

Your brain’s “emergency brake” goes quiet during rival defeats. Highly engaged fans showed reduced activity in the brain region that normally keeps aggressive impulses in check, potentially explaining ...

Football fans ' brain activity goes to "extremes" while watching a match, reveals new research. The findings may explain why otherwise rational people suddenly “flip” at matches, say scientists.
