Seven Of The Most Heated Rivalries In The World Of Football

Football is more than a game, especially for the biggest supporters where a defeat from a rival, is often taken as a loss of a friend.
Around the globe there are many entertaining derbies but here are 7 of the most heated rivalries in the world of Football.

Lazio vs. Roma

Derby Della Capitale is one of the famous derbies around the world. Both teams have Stadio Olimpico as a homeplace, and when these two meet, home advantage doesn’t exist.
In the past, there were many accidents and even deaths among the fans, but now, it grew up in a respectful, charming Serie A classic.

Arsenal vs. Tottenham

The North London Derby between Arsenal and Tottenham is not just a derby for The North, but also, a battle for prestige in whole London and is usually described as one of the most heated in England.
As in the previous case, there were fights and even knife stabbings between hooligans in the past, but now, all that anger has been transformed on the pitch only.

Liverpool vs. Everton

One of the most physical matches in the world of Football. The battle for Merseyside is always entertaining to watch because both clubs are fighting to become the pride of Liverpool and over the years the rivalry on the pitch, has become tempestuous and even violent.
As the number of red and yellow cards indicate, The Merseyside derby has grown into a real trench battle.

Partizan Belgrade vs. Red Star Belgrade

By far, the most significant derby in South East Europe and maybe the most violent regarding fans accidents. It is called the ‘’Eternal Derby’’ because it started 70 years ago and no matter what happens, it’s doomed to last forever.
Deaths of hooligans in fights are so frequent that numbers of bloodied heads and a couple of knife stabbings were considered successful when the two teams met at the end of 2017.

Borussia Dortmund vs. Schalke 04

The Rurh Derby started when the miners of Schalke 04 and brewers of Borussia Dortmund kicked things off due to a political argument that separated the two sides apart.
Schalke 04 is one of the oldest clubs in Germany and has more victories in the Ruhr Derby, but in the last few years, Borussia Dortmund is the club who took control and advantage over their city rivals.

Milan vs. Inter

The so-called Derby della Madonnina is the oldest and most famous derby in Italy and all over the world.
The matches between them are often remembered for the fighting rather than the Football. However, that is what gives a special mark, whenever Milan and Inter go head to head.
In the past, the rivalry had even a political side to it, when Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi Milan chairman and powerful Italian businessman Masimmo Moratti chairman of Inter used the clubs for measuring authority and influence.
Nowadays, it’s a real war on the pitch. A pleasure for every Football fan.

Boca Juniors vs. River Plate

In the heart of the most heated derbies in the history of Football, Superclasico takes the spot.
Super clasico is unique not only for the passionate atmosphere, nor the intensive Football the players of both clubs share, whenever these two go against each other but because of their fans who put their favorite club before their lives.
