In Europe, football and sport in general is a real religion for most people, each city has its club, and you fight for it, rivalries are created between each club, sport in the USA is just a family hobby on Sunday.
'Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you it is much more serious than that.' Bill Shankly, manager of Liverpool FC 1959 - 1974
Hahaha ”that must have been due the pandemic cuz they got masks” that got my crying 🤣 they have masks cuz al the pory/ fireworks are illegal and if the police see their faces they get banned from the stadium and need to pay a bill. Great video love ❤️
There's hundreds of teams in every country, as every country has it's own league system. In places like Germany for example teams down in the 3rd division sometimes still have 30'000+ fans at their games
In europe, this is extremely teritorial and the rivalries are off the charts. sometimes it might seem crazy, but i think it keeps our men ready for war, and they're also having lots of fun
@@Tsass0 it is very posible. In my country the ministry of defense has their own club for different sports. Footbal, boxing, kick boxing, handball, volleyball, etc. One of our best kick boxing athlete, was a secret service officer, trained in such a club. And these sport clubs have their Ultra supporters who will show up to their games for other sports too, not only football, but they will be generally present in bigger numbers at football games
Teams in Europe are Clubs and in America they're franchises. The franchises started as a business idea whereas the clubs started as an idea for like minded people to get together, for protection, or to protest. Clubs are a way of life, an identity, a socio-political movement, protest, a religion, an ideal. P.S. When we go to football or basketball matches no one cares about the food because of the adrenaline.
If you want to learn more watch "Why are ultras important" and channels like COPA90 Derby days and Ultras World "Ultras on world tour". Every team no matter how popular they are have fan groups every fan group is different with different songs and chants
Here in Europe there is passion, it is a way og life.. A lot of places you even get time off of work, if your national team is playing.. When it comes to fans, there is a lot of differences. We have fans that meet up before every game, talk about games, drinking and having fun before we go to the game and its just the love of the sport and your team. But there is also people who just, take it to far. I saw a guy who had his 9 year old son with him to his first football game here in Denmark, and some fan of the other team ran straight up and punch him out, right i infront of his 9 year old son, beacuse he was wearing another team. That ain't love of football. But most of the people, do come for the love of the game and their team. And yes, we do throw a lot of shade on the other teams. But there's a big difference between chants and straight up beating people for the fun of it, especially infront of their kids.
@@TheDemouchetsREACT brother football in europe its not a thing for american tourists , you should be prepared for this stuff,you will see knives drugs etc , especially in my country Greece ( english isnt my fisrt language , sorry for my mistakes) . PAOK FAN FOREVER
when he said "are we territorial, when it comes to these games" i actually had to laugh. you dont wanna know how much more it is than that. there is a reason why (here in the netherlands at least) or swat rolles out on certain game days or even days before/after game day :'D
Every single country has teams. Each city can have one, two or more clubs. For us, Europeans, football is life. You become a fan because your dad or your grandfather was a fan. For example, I'm a thrid generation supporter of my home club. That's how old those clubs are. That's how dedicated we are to support them. We don't change support for the club. You are a fan until you die. In my country, there's a saying: "You can change your house, your car or your wife. But you can never change your club".
Most of the clips seem to be from Eastern Europe, or the south eastern region (Greece, Serbia, Croatia etc ). There are sometimes ethnic, political or religious differences between fan groups (e.g. One team is supported by Orthodox Christians, another by Catholics or Muslims). So long running tensions can play a part in the fanaticism. As a British guy, these are another level to what goes on in UK football. And my sister has had a dislocated jaw after policing an Aston Villa vs. Birmingham City game. We specialise in dark comedic chants rather than the violence on the whole. One side note is that a lot of the teams in mainland Europe are involved in other sports like Basketball, and the same fans go to support them. That's why the top European basketball players who make the move are not worried about NBA crowds.
Over here in England the "Mexican Wave" thing would never happen. Football (soccer) is pretty much a religion. Also there once was a saying "You can change your wife, your politics, your religion, but never, never can you change your favourite football team". Great reaction from you guys from a new subscriber 👍. Have to request/recommend a reaction to the funniest football chants in England, you'd enjoy and have a good laugh to it too 👍
my two year old kid is already a Gremio supporter. kisses the shield of the club and points to anyone he sees wearing a club shirt. too bad we had the 3rd most expensive roster of the Brazilian league last season and even so we were relegated. but the love is unconditional, even if the club were relegated to 3rd or 4th division
Also most of "ultras" fan groups have their own sections at home stadium and when they play at rivals stadium they usually get their own dedicated sections away from the home fans if the game is supposed to be heated or if the fan groups are prone to violence ... however nowdays fights happen rarely in stadiums and there are sections for normal fans aswell ...
The Liverpool legend Bill Shankly once said "Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that." You should react to The Kop singing You'll Never Walk Alone after Barca Edit: Keep in mind fans are segregated, you can't easily get to the opponents fans.
The Brits have firms, casuals, they're recognized by expensive designer cloths, like Stone Island. So they have their own "casual" dress code. You should watch "The Football Factory" "Green Street Hooligans" and "The Firm"@@t7reeka

True story from WW1 in the Balkans: In periods of relative peace(when noone has an upper hand and no major move is to be made by either side, just staying in position), to give some entertainment and relief to the soldiers, a British commander organized football teams and a mini tournament. When a match was played, the enemy cannons would go quiet, and even the enemy soldiers would come up the hills to watch the game from a distance. Sometimes, a fight between players would break out, and sometimes it will be stopped not by the teams and refferees, but by a single enemy cannon shot in the air. The enemy`s way of saying - peace during football - yes, peace during football fights - no! It`s in the memoires of the British general. Football is like the duel of old - passion-driven, honour-bound. That`s why fans sometimes say - we are the club. Win or lose - we support it, cause it is more than just 11 field players, goals scored and championship standing. It`s like supporting your country. Then again, there are also those who just go to the games to get drunk, maybe light a fire, maybe break something, maybe get into a fight with whoever, all of them beat boredom anyway :)
To put it into perspective. If you walk with the wrong colours in the wrong area you might get stabbed, and noone would wonder why it happened, no cap. Concerning the teams there are hundreds. P.S. We don't call em riots, we call em weekends.
The funniest is when you guys see black & white jerseys, you assume they are referees haha It's not Footlocker. Many teams play in black&white. Refs usually are in all black, or bright colored. Both teams and refs can not wear the same color. Even both goalkeepers should have different colors from each other, so nobody gets confused.
Bill Shankly , great Liverpool manager from the 70s quote. " Some people think football is a matter of life and death but they're wrong, football is much more important than that"
14:52 It is a riot. Cops have the riot gear for a reason. At a "normal" game you will just see cops in standard gear but during "high risk" games between some clubs (certain clubs have more violent supporters than others and some supporter groups have historical beefs with eachother) they roll up in full riot gear and they are not playing.
I'm German. I think the reason is that Europe has always been at war with each other and taking land from each other. That is why there is a great love of home in Europe. I only watch football on TV and I'm not a hooligan, but if I was in a game from my home country, drank a lot of alcohol and our rivals insult us all the time, I think I would attack the others with my team because it's feels like they're belittling our homeland and finding their homeland better than ours. I know this sounds ridiculous, but imagine if we were to slander your homeland, your origins and everything you stand for all the time. We hate each other but when it comes to our homeland we are all united and fighting side by side.
We cant bring flares either to the stadium but we can snuck them we hide it cause we have 2 checks before entering the stadium sometimes 3 it depends on who we are playing
In Russia, we call them offniks(extreme football fans) they sometimes go out of the city to the woods or some shit, to fight over the football game, with bats, knifes, dogs and what not
i have 2 children now 20 and 21 here in Denmark (black mother from Cuba) both born in Denmark. Never have I heard a single word about their colour just laugfhter and joy. So it is possible to live a life also here in Denmark in peace with good friends :-) And colored almost most time without other coloureds
The ultra's, hooligans are just on a complete different level compared to any american fan. Europa is on the sun. Totally different thing. In Europe fans literally die for their team. It's not a hobby.
Every city has its own team, or several. Depending on what part of the city (or part of the country) you grow up in, you root for "your" team - and that NEVER changes. Every country has its own top flight league with 20-ish teams, and then there are 5-6 divisions underneath with 20 teams in each. This means that each country in Europe (and South America) has hundreds of teams, with their own fans. These fans are all die hard in love with their clubs, no matter what division they play in. The City of London (England), for instance, has dozens of teams and each team's fans HATE the other London clubs.
Football brings up primal emotions with male fans in Europe and the world in general except for US and Canada. Here in Europe it's the closest thing we have to the raiding bands of Vikings in the middle ages. I guess it's an urge Europeans have, East and West, even though we seem "sophisticated and cultured" to you, this is who we are DEEP DOWN. A bunch of tribal factions fighting each other.
Going to be honest with you guys.....I would be very careful going to some of these footie games being black. I'm white and English and have been to a couple of these games in Poland and Bulgaria and it can get very unhinged depending what stand you are in. My wife is Polish and tells me to keep my mouth shut when we are in the stands as the thugs can kick off knowing you are not one of them. I happened to get into a fight in the stand and had beer thrown over me for being English with a Polish women. A lot of these people hate everyone equally so it's not aimed at just one group. Oh, and the bananas are often thrown at black players and the fans wear the ski masks so they don't get caught behaving badly.
The police is present at every single match. They are mainly there to keep the fans from both teams separated, if they get caught in between them…tough luck, they don’t back down just because you are a police officer
5:53 I know that the video is already 2 years old. Nevertheless, I answer. Bananas were not available in the Eastern Bloc and its states. Which is why they are taken to games against eastern clubs. Atleast this appears to be case in some german games
each country has its own league and divisions. For example England has Premier league, championship, league one, league two and many more divisions. Soccer also has relegations and promotions. I have read online that there is about 110,00 professional soccer teams in the world and there is many more ( semi-pro, amateur )
In Europe we live for football we will give our freedom for our team. We fight with police with everyone who dare to say something wrong about our team or about us. We give our live for team. We live every second for our favourite team.
Bill Shankley, manager of Manchester United: "Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that."
The police are there mainly to keep the different teams fans away from each other, especially at same city derbies where there can be hundreds of years of history, rivalry and tribalism.
The ting is, You have 2 teams that play against each other and therefore 2 groups of fans. If you leave it out of the stadium at the same time, it's war. So the police try to keep them separate because the stadium is often in the city.
it depends on the league, there are leagues where there are over 20+ teams (first division) and there are secondary , 3rd, 4th, 5th divisions, so hundreds of teams
Man beating drums down a street in a different city is great. We did that in Portland last year for the MLS Cup Final. 3,000 fans (myself included) from New York to watch our team and we marched from downtown Portland all the way to their stadium, drums, banners, flags, songs and chants. Cops shut down the streets and blocked off traffic as we basically invaded their city for one day. Oh we also won, worth the 6+ hour trip which cost way too much money lol. Also not the largest away support in the U.S. I think Toronto one season bought like 5,000 people down to Columbus for an away game back in like 2007 or something.
historically in europe a lot of people basically used football teams supporters as gangs that's why the attitude is so different and alien to americans and their sports teams. The football team is the biggest representation of your community so its a symbol of your community/town/city similar to gangs. Every football team in the world pretty much doesn't like cops
First you guys react to rally, now to football that's an easy sub from me. If you want to learn more you should react to "Why Ultras Are So Important For Football"
here in europe the clubs are more than clubs! They are your whole life and love! you support them from born to death. I love my club so much even they are poor now
football or soccer is huge outside of America. Here in africa during civil wars there is usually a temporary pause to the war to allow the national team to play. the 1967 biafra civil war in nigeria and as recent as ivory coast. but governments and rebels know not to touch football
5:27 "different territories" yeah they're called countries lol those countries have things called cities and in those cities there are some things called football clubs.
3:10 not to the sport, to the club. In Europa clubs are playing different sports. One club can have football team, basketball team, volleyball team, waterpolo team and fans are going on all that games
There's ten thousands of football clubs in Europe and at least 1000 playing professional. What if they find out this section is full of people who traveled 2000miles mid week to an away game
NO GUNS ON STADIUM GROUNDS EVER ❤ respect between the groups are on a high enough level rarely a anyone killed in thesee fights wich they settle with their fist. of course all countrys are diffrent
15:25 Fights rarely errupt because of the score. The hatred between teams is sometimes that intense mere presence at the same game, known as derby games, is enough. Same goes to police. No particular reason needed. 15:54 Again Partizan FC. It was a fight between two factions of our fans, not rival teams.
5:42 concerning fire, since I was at that game. It's us, fans of FC Partizan Belgrade on an away game at hated rival FC Red Star (also in 9:07). Their ugly terraces and disposable chairs are always destroyed at the away part, ocassionaly things are burned. It only happens at their stadium. An expression of our hatred towards them, and everything their stadium symbolises.
@@TheDemouchetsREACT It's ugly, shameful and dangerous. ruclips.net/video/iFJXruSuNqs/видео.html Unfortunately things go beyond sport or club when it comes to these football firms. Crime, drug dealing, and even politics are often factors.
There is also fanbases doing this crazy shit, even for the smallest teams and cities. Because even a city with population of 5 000 people, has its club and its fanbase going crazy.
That wave is called a Mexican wave in football (soccer to you) because it became famous in Europe after the wc in mexico in 1986. I don't claim to know where it started, but I would guess it was in some football(your soccer) stadium in South America or Mexico.
So let's make ik clear, 1st rally, now football I'm hooked only hardstyle (popular dance music particular in the Netherlands) to go and best reaction channel alive for me
There are 50 countries in europe, each country has its own league and lower divisions, htere are about 3-5 pro leagues per countries, each league has 10-20 teams, so to answer your question, only counting the proffesional teams there are about 3000 proffesional teams in europe, i dare to day even more.

The ultra's, hooligans are just on a complete different level compared to any american fan. Europa is on the sun. Totally different thing. In Europe fans literally die for their team. It's not a hobby.
12:05 "Must have been through the pandemic,cause they have masks on."😂 -This one got me good
Every city has its own team, or several. Depending on what part of the city (or part of the country) you grow up in, you root for "your" team - and that NEVER changes.
Every country has its own top flight league with 20-ish teams, and then there are 5-6 divisions underneath with 20 teams in each. This means that each country in Europe (and South America) has hundreds of teams, with their own fans. These fans are all die hard in love with their clubs, no matter what division they play in.
The City of London (England), for instance, has dozens of teams and each team's fans HATE the other London clubs.
"i see a lot of referees" i just love it 🤣🤣
Football brings up primal emotions with male fans in Europe and the world in general except for US and Canada. Here in Europe it's the closest thing we have to the raiding bands of Vikings in the middle ages. I guess it's an urge Europeans have, East and West, even though we seem "sophisticated and cultured" to you, this is who we are DEEP DOWN. A bunch of tribal factions fighting each other.
Going to be honest with you guys.....I would be very careful going to some of these footie games being black. I'm white and English and have been to a couple of these games in Poland and Bulgaria and it can get very unhinged depending what stand you are in. My wife is Polish and tells me to keep my mouth shut when we are in the stands as the thugs can kick off knowing you are not one of them. I happened to get into a fight in the stand and had beer thrown over me for being English with a Polish women. A lot of these people hate everyone equally so it's not aimed at just one group. Oh, and the bananas are often thrown at black players and the fans wear the ski masks so they don't get caught behaving badly.
The police is present at every single match. They are mainly there to keep the fans from both teams separated, if they get caught in between them…tough luck, they don’t back down just because you are a police officer
5:53 I know that the video is already 2 years old. Nevertheless, I answer. Bananas were not available in the Eastern Bloc and its states. Which is why they are taken to games against eastern clubs. Atleast this appears to be case in some german games
each country has its own league and divisions. For example England has Premier league, championship, league one, league two and many more divisions. Soccer also has relegations and promotions. I have read online that there is about 110,00 professional soccer teams in the world and there is many more ( semi-pro, amateur )
Yes we are rivals, in some cases it's been hundreds of years long. It's in our DNA and it goes on before, during and after the game
In Europe, football is a passion
React to "ultras chants with lyrics and translations part 1" and "American vs European basketball fans" (in Eastern Europe they got basketball ultras)
We'll check it out.
In Europe were not fans but supporters
7:45 not fighting just celebrating the goal,they rush to the pitch to celebrate the goal they score with their players
Each city got at least 2 teams and the teams in the same city are city rivals. Some teams also got rivals outside their city.
These two crack me up😂😂😂. Great videos guys, keep it up.
11:20 EVERYONE IN EURPA HAS BETTER FOOD THAN AMERICANS
We have yet to see anything that compares to our Soul Food.
"don't look fun n more"
the fun just started whoosies
In Europe we live for football we will give our freedom for our team. We fight with police with everyone who dare to say something wrong about our team or about us. We give our live for team. We live every second for our favourite team.
Bill Shankley, manager of Manchester United:
"Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that."
"We do the wave"... im dead 🤣🤣🤣
The police are there mainly to keep the different teams fans away from each other, especially at same city derbies where there can be hundreds of years of history, rivalry and tribalism.
The ting is, You have 2 teams that play against each other and therefore 2 groups of fans. If you leave it out of the stadium at the same time, it's war. So the police try to keep them separate because the stadium is often in the city.
it depends on the league, there are leagues where there are over 20+ teams (first division) and there are secondary , 3rd, 4th, 5th divisions, so hundreds of teams
9:40 That unenthusiastic wave 😂😂
Man beating drums down a street in a different city is great. We did that in Portland last year for the MLS Cup Final. 3,000 fans (myself included) from New York to watch our team and we marched from downtown Portland all the way to their stadium, drums, banners, flags, songs and chants. Cops shut down the streets and blocked off traffic as we basically invaded their city for one day.
Oh we also won, worth the 6+ hour trip which cost way too much money lol.
Also not the largest away support in the U.S. I think Toronto one season bought like 5,000 people down to Columbus for an away game back in like 2007 or something.
'you know what we do? Like this; A wave!' 😁
How you said it, that was hilarious 🤣
Oh, you have the kiss-cam 😉
Americans calls it passion.
To Europeans its our life.
“Ouhh Lord… yeahh” love yall reactions 😂❤️
Its like in ancient times....war drums and fist fights!!!!
historically in europe a lot of people basically used football teams supporters as gangs that's why the attitude is so different and alien to americans and their sports teams. The football team is the biggest representation of your community so its a symbol of your community/town/city similar to gangs. Every football team in the world pretty much doesn't like cops
You two are very funny, i laughed all along with you guys
First you guys react to rally, now to football that's an easy sub from me.
If you want to learn more you should react to "Why Ultras Are So Important For Football"
It's on the list,Tim😊 Welcome to the family!
here in europe the clubs are more than clubs! They are your whole life and love! you support them from born to death. I love my club so much even they are poor now
football or soccer is huge outside of America. Here in africa during civil wars there is usually a temporary pause to the war to allow the national team to play. the 1967 biafra civil war in nigeria and as recent as ivory coast. but governments and rebels know not to touch football
‘ It must have been through the pandemic ‘cause they got masks on ‘ killed me 😂😂
5:27 "different territories" yeah they're called countries lol those countries have things called cities and in those cities there are some things called football clubs.
Every team has a hooligan group. They want to fight the other team's group, win lose or draw
We have Just under 3000 professional and amateur clubs in the Netherlands.And Many country's in europe have even more.
Other side is the cops and the other team! You live, you fight, you die for your team!
We don't know about the dying part, but we love the passion!
3:10 not to the sport, to the club. In Europa clubs are playing different sports. One club can have football team, basketball team, volleyball team, waterpolo team and fans are going on all that games
There's ten thousands of football clubs in Europe and at least 1000 playing professional.
What if they find out this section is full of people who traveled 2000miles mid week to an away game
Nahhhh man after the wave joke I had to subscribe ahahhahah, I'm from the EU, it's lit here on finals
We are ultras this deeper than sport , it’s political, religious and cultural and anti authoritarian
Your comments were so cute & innocent for this one 🤣🤣
NO GUNS ON STADIUM GROUNDS EVER ❤
respect between the groups are on a high enough level rarely a anyone killed in thesee fights wich they settle with their fist. of course all countrys are diffrent
Hi Folks, 7:58 Thats the Referee omg, ; ) so cute. But no, it is just the Trikot from the Team. Big Love for yo both, and greetings from FFM.
Much love!
Hungary! 🇭🇺☝️💪💪😉👍
Best comment ever:"it must of been during pandemic cause they got their masks on!!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂i idieeeed
We have cities devided by several teams. On game day it can look like war broke out.
15:25 Fights rarely errupt because of the score. The hatred between teams is sometimes that intense mere presence at the same game, known as derby games, is enough. Same goes to police. No particular reason needed. 15:54 Again Partizan FC. It was a fight between two factions of our fans, not rival teams.
"Football is War" - Ajax Amsterdam coach Leo Beenhakker. People litteraly die for this sport.
5:42 concerning fire, since I was at that game. It's us, fans of FC Partizan Belgrade on an away game at hated rival FC Red Star (also in 9:07). Their ugly terraces and disposable chairs are always destroyed at the away part, ocassionaly things are burned. It only happens at their stadium. An expression of our hatred towards them, and everything their stadium symbolises.
oh geez! We wouldn't want to get caught in that crossfire.
@@TheDemouchetsREACT It's ugly, shameful and dangerous. ruclips.net/video/iFJXruSuNqs/видео.html Unfortunately things go beyond sport or club when it comes to these football firms. Crime, drug dealing, and even politics are often factors.
Greatings from Cologne..✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
rival team supporters fight.usually the way team fans are held back from leaving right away so they lessen the fighting
O yess .. i forgot.
There is a big differents between. Hooligans and Fans/Supporters .
There is also fanbases doing this crazy shit, even for the smallest teams and cities. Because even a city with population of 5 000 people, has its club and its fanbase going crazy.
That wave is called a Mexican wave in football (soccer to you) because it became famous in Europe after the wc in mexico in 1986.
I don't claim to know where it started, but I would guess it was in some football(your soccer) stadium in South America or Mexico.
back in the 80`s they used barbed wires to seperate the teams fans from eachother.
So let's make ik clear, 1st rally, now football I'm hooked only hardstyle (popular dance music particular in the Netherlands) to go and best reaction channel alive for me
😁😁 Y'all are hyping us up today! We're so glad you are enjoying our content. We'll check that out now!
There are 50 countries in europe, each country has its own league and lower divisions, htere are about 3-5 pro leagues per countries, each league has 10-20 teams, so to answer your question, only counting the proffesional teams there are about 3000 proffesional teams in europe, i dare to day even more.
