Canadian Reacts to WORLDS BEST FOOTBALL FANS ULTRAS EUROPE

[@sadgfasdg542]

You wonder how everything is so in sync and everyone knows the chants? Its simple, by going to the games 1-3 times a week and its not like the songs are complicated for the most part. Its just something you grow into by being involved and going to the games.

[@drigerdranzer7514]

6:33 It's the lineup prior to the match. You can see the players lined up on the pitch. Here in Europe we usually go crazy when the players enters for the lineup.

[@AntoFN-219]

Also in South America not only Europe

[@drigerdranzer7514]

4:25 What they do with their arms? Lazio is right wing so they actually do the Nazi salute. That's why the video is blurred.

[@echo_joshi5537]

Thats why they are called SS Lazio. Remember the SS. Its part of their name

[@Germanubermensch]

It stands for societa sportiva..

[@benjaminbronnimann3966]

6:30 that's right before the game starts, you can see the players shaking hands on the pitch

[@Ikller-xh7qq]

That wasnt a gun, just fireworks...

[@aimbotpaul9933]

Big up from germany! And a really important fact you need to know for german ultra culture. At 10:14 they showing Dynamo Dresden. The club is currently playing in the 3rd Division. Thats barely concidered pro football here in Germany and they have fans like this! Most of the first division clubs around the world doesnt have that at all! Germany is so crazy when it comes to football and the ultra szene!!

[@maarius030]

Yes ultras are very political. Some in a good way, some in a bad way (for example the one club Lazio Rom where the whole clip was blurred, many fans did the Hitler sign were they put up their right arm). There are even clubs we’re the ultra stand is split cause one ultra group is more right wing oriented and one more left wing. And yes choreos, banners, flags, etc. are all paid and organized by the fans. It’s funded by donations of the fans. At my club you can donate cash during matchday to the ultras or donate via PayPal or regular bank transfer. When the ultras want to do a choreography they have to tell the club and get a permission by the club/the league and police (at least here in Germany). Pyrotechnics are illegal tho. The club itself has to pay fines if the ultras use pyros. Knowing the chants is pretty common. Being a fan is more of a commitment here. At my club Hertha BSC from Berlin there are over 44000 club members so fans that pay a fee for a club membership. They’re eligible to for example vote the club president. Over 50000 come to every match on average eventhough were shit (currently last in the league). The ultra stand is around 7000 (lower stand) + 4000 (upper stand). The lower stand is always doing everything so when the ultras start jumping, all 7000 jump + many from the upper stand. In the lower stand you literally have to sing and jump. In the upper stand it’s not a must do but people wanna cause it’s almost impossible to get tickets for the lower stand of the ultras section. Me personally I don’t go to the stadium often (like 5 times a season from 17 home games) but I still know 99% of the chants. You just learn them when you go to the stadium cause you’ll hear them all the time. And the chants are mostly very short and memorable so they’re easy to sing and get as much people as possible involved. Main goal is to be loud

[@nightstorm5914]

wish your team the best, even if my team is your rival Berlin should stand together and be happy, that atleast one team can play international for a pokal and also that derbys can happen (newer generations make them more tough and hatefull between the Ultras unlike the last one decades before)

[@drigerdranzer7514]

European hockey fans are exactly like this.

[@slimhead666aw]

yep

[@drigerdranzer7514]

11:20 The strings are to raise different Tifo displays. The Ultra groups are there usually hours before the game to prepare and those tifos are made by the fans themselves. The clubs are not involved at all. It's all personal time and money placed into those big displays.

[@sebol931]

4:25 SS Lazio they are from Rome and they are doing the Roman salute and singing anti communist song called Avanti ragazzi di Buda

[@leberlemitbragele7555]

10:20 this is 3. Division club by the way

[@79Testarossi]

Great reaction again 😎 greetings from Austria 🇦🇹

[@leberlemitbragele7555]

1:10 the come to EVERY game and do the same vocals every time

[@drigerdranzer7514]

8:27 Nope. It was just a banger. Small pieces with loud explosions being thrown doing nothing for the atmosphere. Seems like they mostly are used to intimidate opponents and authorities.

[@leberlemitbragele7555]

5:10 every club have organiced fan clubs and they have so clalled "Capos" they have loudspeaker and calls out the songs etc.

[@senthayfn]

It's very possible that some rivalries from european football are older than Canada or US

[@Crnigruja]

8:25 was big very big firecracker, caled "dinamitara" simular like dinamit

[@gihdih3602]

8:25 its a firecracker, in the balkans they are pretty popular and not very regulated so they are pretty much like small bombs but with only gunpowder

[@noobtoasterxd6613]

Flags of my club got burnin holes hut we still wavein them

[@klauskindgott]

every picture is a message and nothing was made by the club thats all made by ultras my life for the last 50 years greets from germany

[@marialamprinou436]

That's why so much money is spent on football and basketball. Politicians and the rich people, prefer the crowd to vent in the stadiums instead of them.

[@gjaxx]

In Europe, football isn't a game, it's a religion... and the fans are the worshipers

[@myflyingkidney]

okay, so there is really no hazard here. stadiums are designed to be flexible to allow for jumping, the flares are just smoke in color the fire is very much controlled, the nets you mentioned are there to stop people throwing things on the stadium, because it makes the clean up very long and postpones the game. but. that doesn't mean there is no danger, the danger is actually outside of the stadium where the fights actually take place. ultras fight outside of game and that is why there is a lot of special police forces around the stadium and around the city because the fights do happen and it can be dangerous. but that is also becoming less of a problem as time passes. so all in all it when we finally control the actual violence it will become the most healthy and controlled way of expressing some of the aggression and experiencing some of the adrenaline and that people feel while avoiding actual damage.

[@Ahmed-n6i4e]

The first clip was ultras ahlawy from Egypt not from Europe 😅

[@RazvanCostea1977]

It would be best to go to where ever there is a derby (a match between 2 teams which are rivals and are located in the same city) in Europe. Usualy in the day of the game the entire city is on Fire!

[@jasch9879]

8:26 IT wasn't a gun. The explosion was to big. In Europe it is a thing to build your own firecrackers. (Illegally) And sometimes they end up in a stadium...

[@TuHdS]

8:20 of course he thinks a firecracker is a gun.....

[@armindopires7743]

Thats life , hehehehehe come to Europe and enjoy it, you will see what´s fun.

[@frankg9526]

Btw Dynamo Dresden is in the 3th League 😂 10:15

[@leonardoberliner5051]

This is great, but if you want to see real passion and crazyness, check South American fans, the barras and torcidas

[@georgiosraptopoulos2994]

i wish you could have a translator to understant most of the greek anthemes they shout

[@noobtoasterxd6613]

6:22 is how fans salute their stadium last honour

[@gerryrafferty7500]

It’s us the ultras and its identity religion , and politics I am 60 being to parkhead since I was 11

[@Tritttbretttfahrer]

Thats why the videos are unsharp.

[@Sherlieholmes01]

Have a look at Frankfurt against Barca...thousands of away fans in Camp Nou so loud

[@HicKha]

Meanwhile in the USA: Please make some noise!

[@leberlemitbragele7555]

5:05 there is a lot of politics in the Fan Szene in europe but most of the time about politics inside football this self. About the money and the rules how to earn the money. In germany EVERY Fan hates RB Leizig because they bought their way to the Bundesliga with money from Red Bull. This is normaly not allowed but the tricked the System. So we sing sons espacially agains them and dont go the their stadium etc.

[@bogoljubdjordjevic7528]

It's not every match same of course you can go but you must know clubs and countries and on what game is safe to go and where will 100% killing best is for someone like you to go East and West tribune ultras are always on other two smaller sides.. except when is special game countries who are in war or was in war like on Balkan and Eastern Europe

[@bassygallus8599]
