The atmosphere is so much better than it was at the World Cup in Qatar. I feel the euros are still more about the game instead of money. Also the passionate fans being able to travel from all over Europe to a country that has a big football culture itself is a massive contribution. Love it!
💯👍
The main reason wc22 had a relatively bad atmosphere is because qatar doesnt really have as good of a footballing atmosphere by default, plus there were less fans because qatar is quite far away
Europe made football great and will always be heart of the sport. Can't compare that to other continents. Plus a tournament in Germany is pretty great to reach for almost all the fans from a travel standpoint.
@@marlibeshaj1069 and you know... all the dead slaves also kind of killed the mood😮
Qatar has ZERO football culture..
in europe pretty much every country has football culture.. thats the difference..

also our dutch brothers 🧡🧡
Absolut 👍🏻
We love you too, neighbour! :)
I love you too! ❤
After youse destroyed us 5-1, we bounced back with an excellent performance against Switzerland tonight - a post's width from winning the game ...and now with a serious chance of reaching the next round for the first time ever!
@@jazzx251 Good luck !!😀❤👍

fun fact: 4% of the entire population of Scotland was in Munich that day!
Felt like more! 😂
If Scotland reaches the second round for the first time ever - you can expect 90% of it's population to show up!

And those few percent were enough to send Munich, city of the Bierfeste, in a tizzy that they'd run out of beer! Well done, my Scottish friends! Congrats from Belgium.
As a German, I'm happy to see all the different people here. Everyone is welcome, no matter where they come from. Come here and let's celebrate together. Peace to everyone
If this was the US, all the people would be fighting.
@@automation7295 Not going to lie, there's a whole lot of people keeping a whole lot of fingers crossed all over Europe. And the stakes are still very low right now, only 6 of 24 countries get sent home after the group stages.
I'm glad my countrymen (the Dutch) are behaving so well but this has been different in the past. And there's a few countries involved with a lot more recent (and ancient) conflicts between them.
I hope this refreshes the minds of sone people whst germany standa vor

tja, nachdem wir damals bei "freunden" zu "gast" in der welt waren ( xD) sind die freunde aus der welt mal wieder bei uns zu gast. so soll es sein.
Euros in Germany is special because Germany is central in Europe so everybody can come. Scottish meet Turkish and Portugese meet Ukrainian.
And Germany has what is probably the best football culture in Europe
As a Scot, I’m just back from 3 days in Munich and 4 in cologne and I can testify to the fact it was bonkers crazy fun!! We are great fans but the Germans are amazing hosts and fans from all nations were mingling together… Even spoke to a few England fans 🫢
Cologne loves You! Even as someone who isn't really into football, it was so much fun running into Scottish fans everywhere these past couple of days!
As a german. We fucking love you.
Don’t speak to those English fans, not until they stop being so freaking arrogant, they are a cancer lol
Mate, that was absolute grand, Munich was alive and it was great to be down Marienplatz, glad that the weather was somewhat in your favor too..
@@pashvonderc381 Rained in Cologne a week ago but was ok. Marienplatz was bouncing from Thursday. Shame the team is rubbish, though… 🫠

And now the dutches are coming on Tuesday .. that’s gonna be a big party
As a Dutchman i really would love to see Scotland vs The Netherlands. I don't even care about the result but i just want too see the two most amazing fans being together in one city.

That orange bus is really something. They have used it for 20 years now; that thing goes everywhere. They even shipped it to Brazil and South Africa for the world championship football. There are somewhere around 30 volunteers to keep that thing driving. It actually drives at the front of the parade when the dutch fans go from the city to the stadium for the match. It even has a bar onboard. It is awesome.
The statues the dutch fans were carying during the parade were those of the players of the dutch team that won the european championship in 1988.
I saw Ruud Gullit. I guess the one before was Johan Cruyff

Germany is the best location for euros. The are the centre of Europe, awesome stadiums and easy to travel to for europeans.
Welcome dear Dutch and Scottish fans in Germany, you are super cool ❤❤
Honestly, I don't think I have ever seen two fandoms that love each other as much as Germany and Scotland. I for one love Scotish fans.
Nah, Germany and the Scots don't share any history of "loving" each other during tournaments. Scots, like the Dutch, are everybodies friends. They make you feel comfortable if you want to party with them. They don't care if you're from China or Germany. The more the merrier. Be warned though, at the end of the day you're wearing either a kilt or an orange wig. 😉The only fandoms that really love each other and mix well together, have a click, party hard when they meet up are the Dutch and the Celts like Irish, welsh and the Scots. Germans don't mix with anyone to be honest. They try though. They're very hospitable, respect other fans/teams/countries, but it feels like there is always a certain distance. They act like they think they have to act, copy certain behaviour, not from the heart like the Dutch, Irish, Scots or Welsh. The English is a another matter. They grind everyone's gears...grrrrrrr.😂😉😂
cringe
@@alliedatheistalliance6776 I mean, yeah. If you find actual appreciation of sportsmanship and people getting along cringe.
@@TheJanstyler Not so much the German fans, but the tartan army are cringe af. I wish we had a UK team, we'd probably have been comparable to Germany over the years, instead of having four shit teams which only have one World Cup between us.
We have a mutual hatred of England.
Fun fact: A scottish fan forgot his handy on a bathroom and thought he would never ever see it again. German fans found it, made a selfie from theirselfs and brought it to the police. The police found the owner, gave him the handy back and now the owner is searching via instagram for the fans with the picture on his handy!
German spottet.

As a German who used to live in England....I love the Scots... They have fun...they hold umbrellas over older German ladies.... And also...10.000 got tickets to the game and apparently 60.000 came 😂
This! The video with the two guy holding the umbrella was my favorite. Somehow the Scots (or most of them) can get drunk without aggression or stupidity.
Scottish girl here are our Tartan Army are incredible!! The Dutch fans are amazing too though!! They’re a very, very close second for me! Some of the nicest people I’ve ever met!! 🏴❤️🇳🇱
No this was just Scottish guys with the bagpipes but they were carrying both Scotland flags and German flags as a sign of respect to the hosts! ❤
The Scots party with everyone, we’re just there for the party man!! We even went out drinking with the German guys after they beat us in the opening game!! 😂 Honestly just the best time!!! ❤
Everyone in Germany is talking about how nice people the scots are but party hard haha. Keep it on
It takes real humility to party after a defeat like that….Rüdiger even scored your goal for you….as a host gift 😅
Really appreciated the Scottish fans in Munich. Very respectful folks 🏴🤝🇩🇪
England fan here, but full respect to Scotland supporters. Passionate as hell, loving a party, singing along to the bagpipes, drinking heavily, but NEVER any trouble. That's how football fans should be.
"NEVER" btw. You can google in 5 seconds about scotland fans being arrested at the euros

@@Ian-te3sq glad you acknowledge they weren't... Scottish.
I read in the paper that the Scots closed a beer cellar by drinking it dry Can only love them for that 👍👍👍😊
And in Munich, which basically floats on beer.
@@sjohie The host of the pup, had the run of his live...lol

Think there were quite few that ran out of beer... some within a few hours
When Dutch fans were in Hamburg the city was out of beer lols
As far as I am corcerned as a German, the Scottish already won the cup for the best soccer party. ^^
And, seriously, us Germans just love the Scots.
Nä, meiner Meinung nach waren das die Holländer! Die haben Hamburg quasi überrannt und die Partyvideos sind der Wahnsinn! 😅 Aber ja, die Schotten kommen dem schon sehr nahe 👌
If us Dutch make it out of the group phase, it's going to be epic. And if the Scots and Dutch teams manage to meet, it's going to be even better. I heard the Scots managed to make some beergartens in Muncih run our of beer, which is quite a feat, but us Dutchies love a challenge. But overall this Europameisterschaft is everything good about football, and just shows what a terrible idea Qatar was.
Im Gegensatz zu den Briten sind sie auch anständig, nicht hochnäsig oder EU🇪🇺 Verräter. #Volt💜💜💜
Don’t forget the Irish, incredible peaceful supporters. Love them too.

@@automation7295 You wrote that comment a few times. Serious non-sarcastic question from someone who lives in Germany: Who would fight each other? I don't fully understand.
@@bjornidler990 Football/NFL fans in the US are more fight each other for supporting another team, but in most of Europe, people usually don't start fighting each other.
@@automation7295 Really? I thought NFL football was more about entertainment than fan rivalry. In Germany there is much more fan rivalry in club soccer, especially when it comes to a so-called derby, a game between 2 clubs from the same area. There have been quite a few hairy moments that I witnessed. The national team is much more of a family thing in my experience.
@@automation7295in Club Football Europe is worse then the US. Never heard of Hooligans in America. Doesn't work with guns anyway
They said there were round about 100.000 Scots in cologne and take over the hole city, but in the must friendly, peaceful an respectful way.
They celebrate the biggest Party all day and night long.
It's so fabulous
The same was in Berlin with us croats, I live in Munich and I can also say that the Scots are awesome!! We as a fans from Croatia have always have great relationships with the Scotland fans ❤❤
Dutchy here. Orange is our national color because of the last name of our royal family: Van Oranje, or translated to English: Of Orange. We're one of the last remaining monarchies. Back in the day (centuries ago) our flag used to be orange, white and blue. But due to bad visibility of the color orange for ships at sea, they changed it to red. Since then it has been tradition on some occasions to fly the red white and blue Dutch flag accompanied by an orange banner to honor the royal family. It's also been adapted in our national team's sports kits and we made carrots orange just for the fun of it 😉
Yeah, we also named a fruit after our national color 🍊😊
@@carmenl163 Hahhaahahhaaaaaa, this is probably taken for the whole truth and nothing but the truth- ----The explanation of Van Oranje by TheTwan85 is correct though... don´t confuse people!
Now now. There are 43 countries with a monarch as head of state. But great job on those carrots (SO much more distinctive than boring white) and bringing a great mood to the EM!
@@oxter11Fourteen of those countries have their king 'adopted' /living abroad (Commonwealth), which is very different from the close connection we have with our Dutch Royals. Also, we don't recognize the Pope as royalty and African monarchs, apart from the King of Morocco. So there are very few countries that are in our position.
Compared to British fan’s Scottish and Dutch fans are so respectful and peaceful. Loved especially Scottish fans with their bagpipes
The Scottish are British. You probably mean the English. 😉
Don't say British when you mean English.
Ha British,we are British say English fans .
Scottish fans were arrested in a fan park for attacking a lady. There have been no reports of any serious English trouble

(Google said it better than I could)
The orange color that’s present throughout much of Dutch culture is a nod to the royal family, which is made up of members of the House of Orange.
The dynasty dates back to 1544 when William of Orange inherited the estate and title at the age of 11. In the years after WIlliam of Orange ascended the throne and the Netherlands gained independence from Spanish rule, the national flag was originally blue, white and orange.
However, over the course of the last nearly five centuries, the country traded out the orange for red. The reason is not entirely known.
Some subscribe to the lore that red was simply easier to spot on the open water -- an important fact for a sea-faring country. Others believe the change was part of a 1654 treaty with the English agreeing to adopt the colors of a Bavarian Coat of Arms. Still others suggest that the orange dye used for the flags turned red over time until the Netherlands just made the change official.
Despite the lack of orange in the country’s flag, the color is ubiquitous throughout many Dutch sporting events and celebrations of the royal family.
(I add myself: Willem van Oranje, William of Orange, was the leader of the Dutch revolt against Spanish rule in our country. It became known as the 80 years war. He was from the house of Nassau (in Germany) and became prince of Orange (in southern France.) Carrots, yes we all know them, those orange vegetables.. were made orange in honor of our king hundreds of years ago. Exported all over the world it became known as the color that carrots naturally are.)
Collour is changed to red because its better to see at sea, netherlands where big at sea at that time
@@Fr-ron That's what it says..?
All correct except that William of Orange was never King. He'd been appointed stadhouder (i.e., steward, or representative of a largely absent monarch) by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V but became the leader of the rebellion that led to the formation of the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands (1579-1795) under Charles's son Philip II of Spain. Successive members of the House of Orange then served as commander in chief and highest executive official of the Republic ever since, until the establishment of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, when they were elevated to kingship, in 1815. And that is why orange has been our national colour since the 16th century ;-).
@@HedwigvanWuijkhuijse Thanks for clearing that up.
Thank you for explaining that so good❤ (and for your amazing way to celebrate your team) 💛💛💛🤝🖤❤️💛
I work at that street in Munich. On game day and the day before the street was completely blue with Scottish fans, it was wild. I was thinking like don't we play, too? 😂
And everyday there's a game in Munich the street is filled in a different colour, it's amazing to see 😊
I'm still buzzing about our amazing performance tonight!

Beautiful scene I got to see in Munich on that day, at central station a group of German fans and Scottish fans mingling together and the Germans offering beer to the others. It should always be like that among fans!
Its not remotely comparable to NFL or any other sport where merely Clubs are involved.
This is the european Championships.
National Teams are facing each other and Fans are there to represent their Country and their culture which differs greatly over the little bit of Land we call Europe. Saw those Scottish folks, they are a stark contrast to let’s say Italian or Turkish Fans.
You don’t get that within your own country though

@@RezzatoniThat's gonna be a visa nightmare
Europe is a huge landmass, it is bigger than the continental united states
There are 200K Scots here for the Euros. They're amazing and a credit to their country. They literally invaded Munich, and the Bavarians just lapped it up. They best fans in the world.
The Scottish fans are all funny, friendly, not violent at all, they love our German beer (they enjoy it in gallons) and were devastated after we beat them 5 to de-facto 0 (The Scottish goal was an own goal mistake by Rüdiger!). We gave a couple of free beers to the saddest Scottish fans we found that night in order to cheer them up a bit. There are clips on YT from boys around 20 that are so enthusiastic; they state that their trip to Germany is their first trip to a foreign country ever and they saved up money for it like 4 to 5 years in advance with typical part time jobs teenagers do like washing cars or delivering newspapers and milk bottles. That's what I call true spirit! -- The Dutch fans here in Hamburg were just great! People from the Netherlands always have a good sense of humor, German as a language is mandatory in their schools, so they all speak German, and they had a good time in Hamburg beating Poland 2:0, so the trip over from Holland was worth it. The Royal house of Oranje-Nassau comes from the German dutchy of Nassau. Because the Royal family name is Oranje (orange) that is the national color of the Netherlands. -- To sum it up, we love the Scottish and the Dutch fans.

The EURO is about celebrating together❤⚽️🍻 the Dutch and Scotish fans are outstanding
I live in Munich, the whole atmosphere is amazing, regardless of your home country its been no issues, just lots of good fun.
I was at a beergarten with over 5000 people, Scots and Germans, lots of music, singing, and a large screen.
Fun Fact: carrots came from Afghanistan to The Netherlands in the 17th century and had many colors but not orange! They crossbread it into orange as a gift for the King, Willem Van Oranje! Why orange? In the 16th century the prince enherited some land in the French county of Orange wich he added to his name
I went to Cologne last week just to see the scotish fans. It was absolutly mindblowing
The Oranjies and the Tartan Army are some of the best fans you can have. They are awesome.
It´s so amazing, when countries from all over Europe come together and celebrate a peaceful turnament! Such a good mood! All are friends
In the US, people would be fighting violently.
Fun fact: the orange in the Irish flag is a nod to Dutch-Irish history.
The orange symbolises the protestants of Ireland, who feel represented by orange because of, the Dutch noble, William of Orange's intervention in Ireland, defeating irish separatists.
Didn’t know that, love learning stuff like that. Thank You 🎉
God your history is a screwed screwed
Firstly, the orange happens to be the colour of the royal Dutch household.
William of orange, who was a protestant fought Catholic King James of England, in ireland, was defeated by William and since the colour orange has been adopted by the protestant loyalist of Northern Ireland. The Irish flag of the Republic of Ireland 🇮🇪 is an attempt or olive branch in which the nationalist flag of green is placed with the orange flag of unionist with the white flag of peace/ neutrality in-between.
@@lordkorner Thanks for repeating what I said mate
Wow, I did not know that, thank you for sharing!
I was there - it was amazing. The Scots crowded the Marienplatz and the Germans took over the Viktualienmark. One of a kind atmosphere.
There were around 30-40k Dutch fans in Hamburg. Hamburg is pretty short distance from the Netherlands with only about a 3-4 hour drive.
We colonised Hamburg for a day 🧡
Well done😂💛💛💛🤝🖤❤️💛
I live in Hamburg and was out one day before the game and the Dutch were already colonizing our city. Amazing people and amazing mood. That's how we like to get colonized. 😍
The statues are players from the Dutch team, that won the European Championship in 1988. Which was also in Germany.
I just saw your comment- right after guessing that was what they represented (because I spotted Ruud's mane from those days, so easy to recognise)
if you see scotish and dutch fans join in they are there to party. English, serbian, turkish and georgian 'fans' were fighting, inside and outside the stadium
Germany has now won 2 of the 3 matches of the Preliminary Round and as thus also was the first team to secure a slot in the knockout tournament phase 😁⚽
It has been AGES since we were THAT good, two highly enjoyable games so far (at least from german perspective 😋)

You can watch most of the games in the US on Fox or Fox Sports, kick off times are 3pm CEST/9am ET, 6pm CEST/12pm ET and 9pm CEST/3pm ET. Fox has some great commentators like Derek Rae, a Scot who's been living in Germany for a long time and speaks German fluently, so he will know a lot about the host country and its league.
Over the next month it will be crazy in Europe. Lots of games between different countries, and all the fans on the street encouraging their country. In the case of Portugal, the reception of the Portuguese team was carried out with thousands of motorbikes from the airport to the Hotel, they were Portuguese who went to Germany There is a large Portuguese community residing in Germany, and many were Portuguese emigrants to Germany. This support for motorcycles began in 2004, when Portugal organized the Euro. Thousands of motorbikes followed the national team to the stadiums on game day, guarded the players, etc. The tradition remains.

VIVAAAAA HOLLANDIAAAAA The Dutch are sooooo famous when it comes to " Being Orange"
here a few orange moments:
World Cup Football
KingsDay

Speed skating.
@@hoschiadedodi and many many many others
Those Tournaments have to be held in countries with a feeling for the sport... in my opinion every EURO should be in Germany. Central Europe so everybody can reach it, solid food and hotels and great stadiums.... one the downside: The Deutsche Bahn and Gelsenkirchen as a city.
There's so much to explain here ^^
The first point is that Germany and Scotland have no real rivalry as far as fans in "football" are concerned, and are therefore very friendly with each other, and also we both have a certain dislike of the English (in the football sense).
Which brings us to the English. They are still mentally stuck somewhere in 1940 and think that football is just another battlefield of the Second World War and that we Germans are therefore their natural enemy. However, that only applies to them but not to us Germans. We have 4 World Cup titles, but the English only have one... which they won over 60 years ago. And apart from the one World Cup title, they've never actually won anything else at international level in football.
Our "final boss", on the other hand, is the Netherlands. Although the rivalry here is more of a tongue-in-cheek affair. But there were some really "hateful moments" over 30 years ago when Frank Rijkaard spat at the German player Rudi Völler and Völler got a yellow card for it.
I still remember Ronald Koeman wiping his ass with a German shirt....
And I suspect one of the statues that the dutch fans carried around depicted Frank Rijkaard; another showed Ruud Gullit ...
Later they both cashed in on the event by doing a commercial together.
The English are great football fans. Some Germans just don't get their humour 😂
And the Dutch still hate us Germans. They are just good in pretending
@@sonye3810- sometimes it maybe the truth and more often it's not. I myself have had the friendliest encounters with the Dutch. As you call into the forest so you hear out🖤❤️💛🤝💛💛💛
Watch out for new fan videos from different countries/fans in different cities everyday, they are ALL here and it's so much fun!! Send with love from Hamburg❤
In two years time, you can easily go and see all this by yourself, as the World Cup '26 will be held in different North American cities (all three countries).
good luck with the public party over there :D
@@karstenbalamagi8463 was that a snarky comment?
a) People in the USA actually like football now - even before, they would pack out the fan parks in the city centre to see USA play on the big screen during the World Cup
b) People in the USA like football now - San Diego will become the 30th team to join MLS next season ... a league that started with only 6 teams in 1996 (or was it 8?)
Now 30 teams - nearly all playing in specially constructed soccer stadiums which, while smaller than their European cousins, are beautifully designed
Look at Allianz Field in Minnesota - a smaller replica of the beautiful Allianz Arena in Germany (featured right now in the Euros)
Not that many fans will be able to travel there. Germany is very central. From Hamburg it's only a 4 -5 hour drive to Germany. Cheap airplane tickets are also a reason why so many are currently visiting this em
If you drink alcohol in public in the US ,you will be arrested.
The crowds will be smaller as well since it costs a lot more than a train ticket to get here @karstenbalamagi8463
@@peterrabbitn787 Friendly correction. Hamburg IS in Germany. Maybe you meant 4 or 5 hours from Hamburg to Frankfurt?
The Dutch and Deutsch police worked together in Hamburg. Dutch in yellow/black uniform and Deutsch in black uniform. Nice to see.
This is a strategy used in every city this Euro. They want to ensure that police is able to understand the fans' language and also to de-escalate if needed.
That's why Scotland doesn't host anything, we can't get the police to work there self's never mind with any one.

There is 200k Scotland fans in Germany right now for the opening games.
It's the largest support at the Euros by a considerable distance.
They legit drank Munich dry in 2 days.
My father is there right now. I couldn't get the time off work unfortunately.
Today the Dutch team is playing against the French team here in Leipzig. I just got home from work, the game is in like hours and the whole city is orange! So crazy! And I absolutely love it. When I see them party this much, I might need to go to the city in the evening again xD
I am from Hamburg and thank god i´ve been in Denmark that time. Btw there were big partys in Denmark too. And a lot of public viewing :) Ty 4 the video.
Dude, it's an international tournament. You can't compare it to the NFL (maybe college gridiron?).
All the games are played in one country (Germany in this case) and the fans travel to stay for the whole tournament or until their team is eliminated.
The fact is that this is a tournament between countries and there are no fights between fans, with the exception of English fans obv and those from countries that have recently experienced war or rift (like the Balkans).
The atmosphere is generally friendly and everyone is on holiday to enjoy football.
The Euros started with Germany v Scotland on June 14th ... the final, starring Scotland again, will be on Sunday July 14th
The format of the tournament is the same as the "old" World Cup
A group stage, where each team plays against 3 other teams
Then the knockout rounds - where 16 qualifying teams are eventually reduced to 2, the final
Other than the World Cup, this is the most important football tournament in the world ...
A football fan organises their diary on a 2-year cycle ... Euros .. World Cup ... Euros ... World Cup
So far, this tournament has been brilliant - not a single 0-0
Him, you missed the Euro & World Cup played by the women ... therefore EVERY year is an important game year ⚽️
You are correct, no fans like this! No Scotland, no Party is the new slogan. You need to watch the opening when they sing the National Anthem…how to do it right! 💙🏴
The orange color represents the Royal House of Orange. The statues are of the football players of 1988 when the Netherlands won: Gullit was clearly visible. And Van Basten will probably be there too. They dance to the song Links,Rechts by De Snollebollekes (left, right). The double-decker bus is always at such events. It was completely renovated for the European Championships. I am proud of my fellow Dutch people. Celebrating without incidents.
It was in the news that the Scot’s emptied the supplies of many bars in Munich for the weekend on Friday!
The Orange fans gather at one point in the city, coordinated with the local authorities, and march together to the stadium. The double decker bus, with music and singers, in front, followed by the dancing crowd.
It's such a big happening, nobody wants to miss it. A statement, but also prevents small groups swerving through town and messing with the opponent fan clubs.
Orange is the color AND nickname for all national teams, football, field hockey, ice speed skating, Olympic team... If a sports(wo)man plays:in Orange, it means they play in the National Selection and represents the Netherlands.
The England fans do the fighting, Scotland just party.
English fans are a team in fighting. That are they known for.
Hamburg local here. The fan walk of the dutchs before their first match here were about 40k people.
Alltogether it is a big friendly party, with the occasional banter. Only serious confrontation so far was between serbien and albanian fans (who didnt even play each other)
The Dutch Royal family name is, the "house of Orange...huis van Oranje.
Therefore the public adopted it as their national colour.
You should see the Netherlands on Kings day... Everywhere you look is a sea of orange, as the public celebrate this national holiday.
Gorgeous country, great people, and a long proud heritage.....My favourite holiday destination.
Edit...I forgot to mention, some of the finest beers you'll find anywhere in the world.
God bless those monks....😆
Actually House of Orange-Nassau. But you're correct... thats's where the Orange comes from
ben ik, van Duitsen bloed, 😅
@@user-zl1hx5vb8c toen dit werd geschreven bestond Duitsland nog niet. Waren het allemaal afzonderlijke koninkrijken en vorstendommen.
Dit heeft betrekking op de gebieden van het Heilige Roomse Rijk waar in de 16e eeuw de gebieden van het huidige Duitsland en de Nederlanden onder vielen. Dus......
@@only1dutchgirl Het mag niet beledigend zijn. Ik heb 1/8 Nederlands bloed😅 Weer een mooi EK.
The statues are players from the 1988 team that won the euros.
* plus 88 coach Rinus Michels ;)
If you want to see a great soccer game, I'd recommend the 2014 semi-final of the World Cup in Brazil. Brazil, one of the greatest soccer talents ever, against germany in their prime. It was an amazing game and so incredibly well played by the german team. It's still talked about at every World Cup here in germany.
Great spectacle from both set of fans...brilliant! Well done man on given us a wonderful show, Greetings from Ukraine!
It isn’t a home tournament for the Dutch, but it can’t be any closer, especially a city like Hamburg.
European Cup is almost as big as the World Cup. It is kinda the World Cup minus Brazil and Argentina. And the good thing is, they can't host the Euros in places like Qatar, so usually it it close enough for the Orange army and others to come out in full force.
A friend of mine is currently there, he met up with Ex-pat Scots who had flown all the way from Canada.
You should check out the Tartan Army March Cologne! And the Flower of Scotland.
I was there I was the one wearing the orange shirt!
LOL
I thought I recognized you. 😉
great selection of color, gotta admit.
And I already wondered if that REALLY was YOU! Glad you clarified it! 😁
🤣
Your Voice Audio is ok :)
Oranje was in Leipzig, 50.000 peoples, it was absolutely fantastic :)
I feel like as an American you cant comprehend the stuff thats happening in Europe right now. First of all, America is way bigger than even Europe itself, which is just an assembly of many many countries being in a comparably small piece of land. And with Germany being right in the middle everyone has kinda the same distance to travel and even more people can go and support their national team. You probably have to think about it as 5% of the American population traveling to Canada or Mexico to support a American Football team made up of the best american-born players in the whole country. And with 24 Teams playing each other in 31 games troughout roughly a month you have an average of 3 games A DAY which you can enjoy with your friends even tho its not your country playing. Its basically a dream for every football enthusiast in Europe. Just hundrets of thousands of people having a massive football party. Different countries and cultures clashing together like the Scots with their backpipes and the dutch with their oranje.
5% isn't even an exaggeration, there were 250k Scots in Munich, for a country with 5.5 million people! Its insane.
Total area of Europe is 10,011,000 km2. Total area of the USA is 9,826,675 km2.
Total population of is 741,668,902. Total population of the USA is 339,996,563 people.
Europe is more than just the EU.
there we go. americans and knowledge.
Well size whise think more about people from west or east cose going to one of the middle states
Alsonscots had a much further way than the dutch 😅 acots had to drive for a day or 2 depending hom many drivers they had in the vehicle or fly
Dutch only had half a day if even if they live nesr the border just one or 2 h ? It really is not that fahr
@@dzejokocha brother im european myself and I just made a simple mistake, please dont compared me with americans, they most of the time dont even know where europe is
Remember the Netherlands boarders Germany...so it probably took them less time to get to Hamburg than it would take you to get into your local major city (depending on the traffic)
Hamburg is still a 4 hour 30 min drive from central Netherlands and if you center on population most likely 5 or 5 hour and 30 min by car
Those dutch statues are legendary players, who won the euro 1988 in Germany
I just love watching the Dutch fan march. Love the energy
you can watch all games in german free tv (ZDF or ARD) you might need a vpn tho
Yepp, google "ZDF Mediathek live" & "ARD Mediathek live" and you're good to go.
It's better to watch on bbc or itv player via vpn for English speakers.
The Scots and our neighbors the Dutch have the best fans.
A role model for all the hooligans and thugs who try to spoil the fun of football.
Hail Caledonia 💙 and hup Holland hup🧡
greetings from Germany
Hi from Germany, we extremely welcome our european friends! And the Scotts are SPECIAL❤
love your world view!
The Scots have gained some sympathy in Germany. They lost the first game heavily, but still celebrated non-stop and created a good atmosphere. The Dutch don't have to travel too far to germany, so many people came to support their national team. They're also a very funny bunch.
In Germany we have a humorous connection to the Dutch, we say "orange trägt nur die Müllabfuhr" meaning "Only the garbage collectors wear orange".
good banter ;)
It's no surprise that England and Scotland "hate each other" (not really, of course)
This was only the first match. If they go further in the tournament there will be more people.
4:54 they are two players from the Dutch team of 1988. When the Netherlands won the European Cup! First "statue" is Marco van Basten and the second is Ruud Gullit .
Yeah there some fights. I almost cried when from Albanian fans broke raw spaghetti infront of italian fans. Thats some war crime unforgivable acts
The Dutch Orange is the reason why Carrots are mainly Orange :)
William Of Orange became the king of England and to celebrate they bred Orange carrots, i think they used to be Purple
You are referring to Stadtholder William of Orange who became king of England in the Glorious revolution, however the origin is from William the Silent , Prince of Orange Nassau Dillenburg 200+ years earlier ;)
@@katjaboelieable Cheers for the info.....i think i mixed my Oranges and got Lemons :D
"The Dutch Orange is the reason why Carrots are mainly Orange"
This is not true, it's just a Dutch "urban myth", that's fine tho, we've done so much other things that the world can have their orange carrots back 😉
And man - you missed THE best shots of the Dutchies: ruclips.net/video/OLfKJS3VHh4/видео.html - this is next level dance. The level of coordination is through the roof
During the Euro of Portugal there was a report that a bar in Algarve (southern region) had beer in stock for 3 months.
When the Brits arrived, they ran out of beer in a single night.
And it was in a touristic place where the movement is already high, so a 3 months stock should take a high number of customers into account.
It's great having all these different nations here. It's what football should be about, party & friends & good games 😁
