Big Football Match in Limassol Gets More Police

Police in Limassol are making security much stronger for an important football match on Sunday. The match is between two local teams, AEL and Apollon. This is because there was a lot of violence on Thursday.

After that trouble, police and club officials had a meeting. They asked fans to be calm and not use angry words. Police also found some weapons in a fans' clubhouse and arrested two young men.

However, the police and the Cyprus Football Association (CFA) do not agree on security. The CFA is angry because the police want fewer people at the match. The CFA thinks this is not fair to all the fans.

Now, the city has a big test. People will watch to see if the new security can stop the violence. They also want to see if the clubs and police can work together well. Everyone hopes the game can be safe and fun for real fans.
