Why is Gazprom Investing in Football?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2024
- Gazprom’s reasons for investing so heavily in sport could be compared to any global organisation - it’s a fantastic means of advertising. But when it comes to this question, the fact that they are majority state owned should, and inevitably does, lead to greater scrutiny of their motivations.

Plot twist: This video was sponsored by Gazprom
*x-files theme song*
With the way this was spun, highly unlikely.
This is also a company giving back to the community and building the youth programs for the future. They should invest more in hockey where russia is a super power and pre 2018, it was on par with football in popularity. But they will make more global connections with football, admittedly. But id rather be 1st in something, not just above average in something else.
No company really does this in the USA, and obviously no support from the state. So we use Canadian infrastructure and leagues for elite hockey development (northern colleges produce good players too tho), but the football youth system is almost non existent. There are a handful of good college teams like north Carolina, they don't have much competition. Not good for a youngster. Seattle produced DeAndre yedlin, an underrated player. But these are not common. I think MLS itself is the minor league for Europe. But as good as a minor league can get, good players are starting to come still in their prime. Giovinco and Vela come to mind.
I love the investigative journalist vibe of your recent videos.
Tifo, more recently, I have begun to feel more guilty about not paying anything for these excellent videos. I am someone of limited means who doesnt pay for my news generally but I really hope you guys stay viable for as long as possible. I was singing your praises recently to my brother who is a fledgeling journalist, and he bemoaned the precarious position of top quality journalism in relation to advertising/funding etc. Im pretty ignorant of how all of it works and what the reality of your situation is but I appreciate the content all the same. Thank you!
Don't feel guilt, they are being paid by third party to spew propaganda against Russia
Nemanja P Sure they are :)
They don't have a patreon, so they probably are doing alright.
But if some day need help, do stick around and show them support - financially if you can.
@@marekbottrill8070 be a sheep mate, it's your choice
Nemanja P Cool just accuse them without evidence or anything. Really woke shit right there, I'll continue being a dummy then. I don't know but when your automatic reaction to something being even slightly critical of Russia is to claim they are being paid for it I'd say that's being a sheep but okay.

Also UEFA: Lets Leipzig and Salzburg compete in the same EL group
😂
@@maxwellfletcher-beiers4330 maybe he has a twisted sense of humour
UEFA is mafia. They don't enforce their own rules.
Technically as far as Red Bull are concerned RB Leipzig isn't really owned by them
@@nictheperson6709 technically red bull gives you wings
Knocked it out of the park once again
Undoubtedly the most thorough football channel on RUclips.
Best football content channel on RUclips
Deserve 10 million subs
Great video! Could you make a similar video on Emirates? They seem to be heavily invested in the sport too
Abhyu Day it’s pretty much same story which is PR.
Emirates Air is just simple adverting. They sell airline tickets in their over priced planes
actually Etihad or the Qatar Foundation are far more invested. With the Qatar Foundation owning PSG and even bribing its way to get the 2022 World Cup.
Superb music and beautiful narration
Love your content
the quality of your investigation video are astonishing and the report accuracy have pass many establish news outlet i hope you never stop publish such quality video and thank you for raising the stander of sport channel
One of the best channels out there
Brilliant reporting. This was a very informative piece. Thank you Tifo Football.
I am a simple man. I see tifo uploading a video. I Watch. Best channel 🤙
Ditto. And I'm more a rugby fan, to be honest. But good content is good content. And this is some of the best on RUclips, period.
One of the best channels for sport, especially the finance and similar subject to these kind of videos where my interest lies. Fantastic
Really struggle to understand how this channel doesn’t have more subs!
This is such a strange coincidence as I was hoping you would make a video regarding this exact matter , I recently bought a Red Star Belgrade shirt which has Gazprom on it, I know Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has something to do with it but I don't know how much but after I watch your video I am sure I will understand the whole story.Keep up the excellent work. Regards David from Manchester England UK
Could also be divestment, much like City group. Oil money could run out but having multiple investments in different areas helps you in the longer run
Anil Jayakumar "oil money could run out" 😂 that's not happening in either of our lifetimes. Running city is like running a kettle for Abu Dhabi
and plus city is very close to being self sufficient now
I think Abramovich owns Chelsea since 2003.
2003/04 season
Quality content. Relevant, timely, researched, and succinct. Bravo, TiFo. Bravo.
Thank you for the videos, found out so much more behind modern football and the history of the beautiful game thanks to you Tifo. Cheers 👍🏻
This is quality journalism at its finest, the video before this was how all the different countries got into the world cup and it almost made me cry
Guys, you made some mistakes in this video. I'm just going to State the obvious: Abramovich was the owner earlier than 2012, Putin was at the Croatia game. You should watch the video again to find the rest of the mistakes
Open your ears. they didn't claim RA bought chelsea in 2012. they pointed out that Gazprom became a sponsor of chelsea in 2012 and that chelsea is also owned by russian oligarch and Putin lapdog RA.
Great Video! I think you guys should do a follow-up on this with Qatar Airways, as they are gaining more and more influence in european Football and the state is also envolved in the company.
I wish you could do all documentaries not just on football. Lovely!
Jack Walker was 1st man to buy a title in 1993, after that huge companies and countries with bad reputations and crimminals stepped in to wash their cash. Chelsea were 1st spend big spenders in new era of unsavory owners to change football with trully massive wages, then all kinds of arab wealth funds used it to advertise their wares. It has proved great for players wages and player power.
This is very informative, accurate IMO and neutral stuff! Amazing!
Wow! I remember when you guys had 20k subscribers
The sketch of that building at 2:09 totally looks like the former (now Gazprom, for obvious resons) NIS building in Novi Sad, Serbia. My mind has just been blown.
Yeah I absolutely love these videos you must put in a lot of hours creating these, I stumbled upon your page a few weeks ago and was instantly hooked cause I’m drawn in to the subject of your videos easily, anyways keep up the good work your doing great.
Surely the reason Vladimir Putin was at the game against Saudi Arabia was because it was the first match of the tournanent and he, as the president of a participating nation and indeed the hosts, was obliged to be there? As i recall he attended no other match in the World Cup.
City, Red Bull, Gazprom... I'm not sure I like the current trends in football sponsorship/ownership ..
so what do you like? status quo? bayern winning the league every year? Or are you a man utd fan ?
Yeah they're all trying to launder their reputation/use football as pr by buying and funding clubs.
That’s a stupid attitude. Local amateur football is still strong if you just want to watch that. You have a choice.
Timothy Stamm I don’t buy that argument. In what way has City’s owners changed how they are viewed?
Tifo football as a fan I'm pleading you to:
Make a video on Claudio Marchisio since you mentioned him in this video. It would mean a lot to me if you make a video about him because he's my favorite player.
it hurts how good your channel is
How do you do your research?
Pretty impressive!!
Nice content
I hope you guys can expand beyond RUclips. About starting your own app? I really enjoy your content
Dear Tifo..
Greetings from Sumatera..
Have a nice weekend 🇲🇨
Just when I thought u cudnt get better.. u're a genius tifo!
The depth is these videos are mad
Needs a social influencer to put tifo on the map.
This was a slick presentation 🙂😎🥳
I want Joe Devine to read my eulogy
wish he could narrate my wedding
A lot of gas and oil companies invest in football
This just in: Tifo has been purchased by Gazprom.
Great video ! You guys deserve MORE subs !
Learn so much in these vids. Great content.
Your channel is great! Could you please post more tactical videos for 7 aside football?
Absolute quality and very current with the trade war going on.
Exactly the same happens in Mexico with Televisa, owns many teams, have contracts with FIFA...
how is gazprom only 4th biggest gas company in russia if they own 72% of the nations gas??
Could you do a video on the rise and fall of the Scottish club Clyde FC
That would be good, also one for my local team Accrington Stanley
I always wondered why the fuck a russian oil company is sooo much invested into Football. Great Content. Thanks man :)
Worth mentioning is that Gazprom employs the German ex chancelor Gerhard Schröder, which is quite alarming if you think about it.
I understand you don't want to be controversial but what about refereeing in Gazprom owned teams? I remember a Schalke match against Sporting Lisbon that was ridiculous; and I support Benfica. That was on a CL qualifier and the ref was Russian.
Never seen such a detail invstgtn before ...woow
If Romam Abramovic were the owner of Chelsea from 2012, there could never be Lampard, Cech, Drogba, and other stars way before that timestamp.
As long as it doesnt interfer with game results. Oh wait....
this should be like a short tv series like "tifo at ten"
Money. Thank you for watching
Putin was at the russia-croatia game this is wtong. He shared a seating box with croatia pm at the game...
that is what happens when ppl report with a political agenda as a base, he was most visible at that game, anyway every president is expected to be at the opening game
They have invested in a lot of other sports. They own SKA and HC Sochi in the KHL and a self named volleyball team
Can you do a tactical analysis on Man City’s 4-1-3-2 formation that was used against Newcastle this season
Tifo Football, good job. Together we are strong :) :)
Chelsea's next sponsor after 3.
I don't get how being present at a game and not at other two largely explains anything... You think if Russia was in the final he would not be there for better or for worst?
One of the best channel out there....
But please buy a proper mic , up the audio quality. Please!!! I love your channel but the low voice and the bad audio quality really makes the video fade away. I hope you fix your audio quality. I have been telling you lads to up the audio quality since you started doing these video 😐
can you guys leave sources on your videos for further reading thanks for another great video
Amazingly insightful 🔥
always admire your work tifo..... is there any chance you guys are hiring, coz i would love to work for you, be it any job
Prescient. Ahead of the curve.
So What? A sponsor trying to raise their profile. Stop using football to promote your politics
There is another reason they blow this money on sport. The fact that so much money is concentrated in such few hands is controversial in Russia (and everywhere). People are aware that the state companies from the soviet era that ended up being own by a few oligarchs was originally “their” property in many respects. This is not unjust as they really were owned by the soviet people. So being a billionaire is a little precarious because at any time you might get yourselves a mutiny/revolution of some sort. Billionaires know that to protect most of your money you have to be seen to be giving some of it away to good causes. Abramovich did this by spending his money where it would be noticed most. It would have no impact in western Russia so he spent a bit in the Far East on a region where he would look good for relatively little.
Gazprom being state owned isn't the problem. You wouldn't fear TV Espanola's or PBS' ambitions of world dominance, would you?
The problem is them being Russian AND state owned. For hundreds of years now, they've been too motivated to lead the world despite the average Russian subject having a short, dirt poor, unhappy life. So they need to force other people into that shit.
On top of that, Putin is a KGB officer highly trained in psychological warfare and undoubtedly having antisocial personality disorder. There is always an ulterior motive for him, but it's very simple: always more power for him, more poverty and unhappiness for everyone else.
I see a tifo video. I press like
top quality content mate, keep it up!
Imagine firing the owners of a company and then making it as your own. Wooww
Gotta lauder that money somewhere
Keep going!
video on how theirry henry will fit in AS Monaco?
how do i make this kind of video?
What about Unai Emery's Arsenal? when's the video?
Awesome channel
Of course he only had time to go to the opening game of the world cup, you think he has a bunch of time on his hands to go somewhere and watch football?!? Really grasping at straws there, tifo
As a fan, of Italian FOOTball: (T.B.H.); [Rather Biased of me-but]; I would -[very_ -much]:
Love to: see "M.B.S." (with "his "P.I.F."") And "Gazprom"/others; =
"Investing into: {"the [very]_-World, of"}_ -Italian FOOTball!!"!!
-M.K.S.
**+ (Plus) also: Chinese/Indian co's; too!!**
Why can't? Redbull also had football team
Some claim Putin has become an oligarch. If so, so what? It's the least they could do for the guy that saved the country against all odds.
Someone's gotta put you guys on with an angel investor... there's money in you guys
I dont know...
We want more
We want more
Abramovich is the owner of Chelsea since 2003, not 2012
but Gazprom has only been a sponsor since 2012.
Gazprom is... Skynet?
Do you think Gazprom could own a team, and change the name of a team to "Gazprom FC" like the former MetroStars (New York Red Bull) of the MLS, RB Leipzig, and RB Vienna?
they can but depend on the league rule I guess .
zawodnik nie gra w pierwszym skladzie uefa decyduje lub ligi poszczegolne koles ciebie nie ma w pracy w najwazniejszym dniu pracowales 43 lub 4 dni treningu ale ciebie nie ma w najwazniejszym dniu w pracy to jest normalne co FIFA I UEFA i ligi zrobila z pilka?
Was this piece saying in effect....
There is really no such thing as a football "fan" just a bunch of idiots who will let anything happen including the destruction of the game they supposedly love from the inside as long as they have something to gawk at whenever they feel in the mood? If so I whole heartedly agree.
The modern football fan is as big a danger to the game as the crooks who are buying their way into it. They have a choice, turn your back on it or you won't have a sport worth watching. That's almost the case now.
I WISH,that “Gazprom”; “The P.I.F. (Public_Investment(s)_ fund) =**Of Saudi_Arabia”** and others (and as many others; as poss_ABLE -etc.); would -
Invest into: “The [very]_ World, of”_ -Italian FOOTie etc.!!??
-M.K.S.
**Oh yeah and (also):
Celtic, Too!!**
M.K.S.
You can't play football without oil money these days
Автор решил хайпануть на ненависти к России. Неделю назад придумывал бред, как Саввиди приехал в Грецию, чтобы развалить НАТО, теперь общепозновательное видео о Газпроме, и автору повезло, что тема хоть как-то связана с футболом, и так он может оправдаться. Хотя на самом деле я не вижу, почему эта тема должна интересовать зарубежных любителей футбола, есть куча куда более занятных и преступных спонсоров в лигах Топ-5.
Because people in the West are obsessed and love anything anti Russian. Hypocrites of the highest order.

Good old corruption
Even their Football is corrupt, go figure.
