  • Calcio Storico is football like you've never seen before! Dating back to the 15th century, this early form of the game is brutal. But behind the blood and punches lie a story of tradition, pride and honour. A sport as unique and loved in Florence as ACF Fiorentina are, next season will see a unique collaboration between the two... #4Quartieri1CuoreViola​

    Fiorentina is the football team of Firenze. The city's name is Firenze (Florence, in english) the cradle of the Renaissance.

    Man that’s brutal! Had a quick look at Wikipedia. . It’s probably like soccer before it was codified. The goal is 50 m wide with 4 goalies. When team scores they swap round till next goal. There are currently 4 teams that play in an annual tournament. Anything pretty much goes apart from kicking the head it looks like!
    It’s a bit like murder ball we used to play in scouts until our county barred it!

      I used to come home from Venturers as a 14year old, black and blue and my Mum would ask every week "are you sure you want to keep doing this?"

    Glad you looked at this. As I said there are full hour long documentaries on this (I don't expect you to react to one) that shows much more 'play'. It appears that the job of the 'forwards' is to 'distract' the other team by any means while the 'backs' work their way past to score.
    Four neighborhoods in Florence. The team you can play for is determined by where you were born. Only 3 games played in a year (2 semifinals and the final).
    I believe the ball is filled with something other than air, a bit like a medicine ball.

      It just looks brutal but an amazing how it brings the communities together

    Hey mate, im an aussie and for some reason I cannot stop watching your reactions. You always come across intelligent and you don't purposefully overreact for views. Love your work you got a new sub

      Hey Jett, thanks man. I'm doing my best to not be like the other reacters who just go "WOOOAAH A BIG HIT". I'm trying to learn about the sports and even compare to Football which is what I know. Appreciate it man

      You are working your way through the different types of football. I assume you are going to get to the original version that predates them all.

    Some years ago Calcio Storico was much more violent. Now there are many restraining rules to the hits you could make.

    Does anyone think Italians are weak? Well think again.
    I wish we ( USA ) had traditions like these, imagine once a year Marines vs Army battle royal for title of being the toughest.

    just a "little" bit more violent than normal football... yeaaa right!

  • @dangi79
    @dangi79 3 года назад +4

    The wrong thing is to think to calcio storico as sport or only a game. It's firstly a 500 years old tradition, and the prize is glory. No money.

  • @vnnxyz1473
    @vnnxyz1473 3 года назад +4

    It's not Football but Calcio Storico Fiorentino; where it comes from ancient roman's ball game and where football/soccer ,amrican football,rugby,handball,etc...they come from! And there are Rules !

    Harpastum is history, it is tradition, historical football represents centuries of Italian history ~ HANDS OFF HISTORICAL FOOTBALL!

    How thoroughly brilliant if bonkers! Makes me think of rugby football though and the four home nations, the white of England, the blue of Scotland, the Red of Wales and the green of Ireland all fighting for supremacy but then uniting as one for the Lions. Four packs coming together as one pride of lions.

      It's such a community 'sport' that although they are playing against eachother, it brings them together

    Hi Rob. The rival teams have to pin down the other teams strongest players. To make it easier for one team to win. It's exciting and end to end. 👍

      Oh I bet it's exciting. Looks a bit mad at the same time 🤣

    historical Italian football is very hard and dangerous, only for Italians, It is not suitable for other peoples.

      Uhh no, the point of a reaction is to discover something…
