8:40 That game was played the day after the 75th anniversary of the start of the Warsaw uprising. Every year August 1 several cities, since it's now a national holiday, stop for one minute at 5 pm. Air raid sirens sounds, cars blare their horns, emergency vehicles turn on their sirens, motorbikes rush their engines and flares are lit. This was to commemorate the 75th anniversary, but as it was in a Champions League qualification arranged by the corrupt UEFA, The European Football Association Legia was fined, and that's what the second tifo with the pig is about.

English fans always say "we don't have because it not allowed" Is it allowed anywhere ?

At 8:00: Legia Warsaw ultras remembering the warsaw uprising in 1944. "The uprising was timed to coincide with the retreat of the German forces from Poland ahead of the Soviet advance. While approaching the eastern suburbs of the city, the Red Army halted combat operations, enabling the Germans to regroup and defeat the Polish resistance and to destroy the city in retaliation" (see wikipedia). Between 200.000 to 250.000 Poles - the majority of those were civilians - were killed by Germans during the uprising. Poland suffered the most under WWII. 16% of its Population was killed.

Worst Take EVER for comment ever about the Anniversary tribute to their dead. The 1944 on the Red and White Poland flag is created by everyone in those individual seats holding up a specific card placed on that seat before the match - when held up on mass it shows the display - this technique is used across the world for different things and in no way is any of that for intimidation but rememberence

[@Isleofskye]

Sadly, English fans have become much more sanitized after making our stadiums all-seater around 30 years ago after The Hillsborough Football disaster. They are, gradually,re=introducing "Safe Standing" which will improve the atmosphere although it will never be what it was. There is a 3-minute video from 1964 called " Liverpool F C-The Kop Crowd" with 28,000 singing and swaying behind the home goal which shows how it used to be in England.

[@Isleofskye]

@NSA2k It was great prior to the 1989 Hillsborough disaster after which the stadiums became All Seaters which are sanitized and, relatively, soulless. AT LAST, they are bringing back "Safe Standing" at many Clubs.

[@jaguaraky4059]

In Europe we have organized fangroops ( so callled ultras groops ), and within them bringing flags to the game is completely common. Flares also occur sometimes in games, but in some countries they are illegal ( but they sometimes still bring :)

[@twobbi10]

thats why it is burning on the floor, so they cannot identify anyone holding the flare. otherwise they are fully masked, so they connot been identified

[@sharky209]

Blocks of empty seats are usually to keep opposing fans apart. Especially derby matches can sometimes spark violent interactions between opposing fan groups (throwing flares, fistfights, and anything in between really)

[@Isleofskye]

Thanks for listening JJ:) Football was voted the most popular sport, recently, in all 55 European Countries. I have been to 1,770 matches in London and am in my 7th decade of attending. To explain. The first Glasgow Celtic song was "You'll Never Walk Alone" then The Napoli, Italian fans were Away from home and kept back for an hour so you saw after the game when all the Home fans had departed hence the empty seats. The empty seats next to the Leeds, England fans were deliberately empty to create a space between rival fans. In many countries there is a 99% Male crowd hence the intensity and even where they are Females in the Stadium ,then it is only a small percentage:)

[@JJLAReacts]

Oh wow! Props to you for being a loyal fan! Those clips are much more impressive knowing it was after the game and the away team was taking over the stadium in a sense. Very impressive! Cheers to you 🍻

The Marseille fans are exchanging chants with the other end of the stadium, who are also Marseille Ultras. The empty seats are for security resons, so the fans from the other team cant attack them. Police usually surrounds them

[@makavelismith]

Oh BTW, the empty seating areas are not due to seats not selling (at least in these cases). They are sometimes closed for security reasons. You don't want to have opposing fans next to each other sometimes because ultras have a hard time being civil.

[@OleMersch]

Very nice video mate, greetings from Germany

[@rjb29uk]

If you see a block of empty seats, especially at a particularly lively game, then it's usually because they want to give more separation between the home fans and the visiting fans. Makes it easier for the stewards and police to have a no-man's land area between.

[@davelemmens1396]

5:11 what you're looking at is the away section of the stadium. The fire is obviously illegal (mostly), but the flags are usually approved by the clubs. The reason the seats around it are empty is because for some high risk matches they keep a perimeter of empty seats around the away section to help prevent fights between the supporter groups.

That's a German officer holding a pistol to a Polish child's head. Obviously commemorative of something in the 2nd world war, probably symbolistic of not surrendering to the Nazis.

It looks more dangerous as it actually is. The fans know what they are doing and generally no one gets injured by the flares. But they are not legal inside an arena.

[@drigerdranzer7514]

16:40 The smoke was from the banger you heard. Small pieces with a deafening bang that bring nothing to the atmosphere. It's mostly used to intimidate opponents and authorities. Even though I'm a Red Star fan from Sweden I will never go to the Belgrade derby with Partizan, the last club in this video. It's considered the most dangerous derby in Europe.

[@anfieldlegend8767]

First of all about the empty seats ive seen a few mention it in the comments its about safety between rival fans, Some teams play in stadiums that have 10.000 seats but only 3.000 watches the game as its a small town or city. The flares and bangers are always used in the ultras section of the stadium and families or neutral fans are usually no where near that so no one should be afraid to visit a game. In sweden in our local derbies we have empty spaces around the away fans so it wont be any fighting or stuff like that. In Argentina away fans arent allowed to come watch the games. Im not 100 percent sure if its all clubs in Argentina but atleast during the Boca - River derby there are only fans to the hometeam in the stadium.

Also most of these stadiums are mostly standing only, in he UK our stadia are all seated due to some very nasty incidents where many fans died.
