He offers a penalty to one of the teams, allowing them to win the match, but this causes a furore amongst the supporters of the opposing team. In the ensuing riot, Maurice manages to escape from the stadium, but is pursued by a hardened group of supporters who want revenge. Maurice and his girlfriend, Martine, are pursued through a television study, across town to his girlfriend’s flat, and ultimately to an industrial complex.
