Do think there is sometimes religious feelings and fervor in sporting events and also excessive nationalism?

I don't mean an actual religious feeling but similar to it.

Well it's the same group / tribal chest-thumping, sure.

There is.

But religious feelings and fervour outside that sporting world have no meaning - unlike religion. And "riots" after a loss (or win, which I don't understand) is still inside that world.

Take each person away from that event completely, and their interactions with others have no basis on the sport.

Yes, definitely.
