22 year-old Spain supporter Ahmad said “usually, I like to ride my Vespa around town and burn tires. But I have grown tired of the same old routine of causing mayhem and chanting slogans.

I remember reading something similar about the Americans after the 2008 Obama elections. If you found the original AFP article (if it exists) please send me the link.
