As an expat, my interest in German football definitely helped me understand my adopted country (and continent!) a whole lot better. After all, local clubs are often an integral part of a city\u2019s fabric.<\/p>\n<p>I love to see how cultures are reflected in the stands, and how fans represent not only their countries but their regions \u2013 especially somewhere as diverse as Europe. As a history graduate, I try to approach the beautiful game from that perspective. I learned a lot about Northern Ireland when I went to the North Belfast Derby on Boxing Day in 2016, for example. I\u2019ve been lucky enough to go to matches in Poland, Czechia, Mexico, the USA, Switzerland and Spain, among others, and have been to many stadiums all over Germany.<\/p>\n<p>In international terms, one of the most exciting aspects of international football tournaments is seeing the fans from different countries support their teams in their own languages or giving their style of support their own particular twist, like the Icelandic fans and their Viking clap on the last tournament or Scotland\u2019s famous Tartan Army. That\u2019s why I love the World and European cups!<\/p>\n<h2>Is it called soccer or football?<\/h2>\n<p>First things first: what\u2019s with the name? Technically, \u201cfootball\u201d refers to a family of sports that includes rugby, American football, Australian rules football, Gaelic football and soccer, but generally \u201cfootball\u201d is synonymous with \u201cassociation football\u201d. When The Football Association coded the rules of their style of playing in 1864, they added the word \u201cassociation\u201d to distinguish it from rugby football. So where does the name \u201csoccer\u201d come from? It\u2019s simply an abbreviated form of \u201cassociation\u201d (+er) and was first recorded in 1889 (as socca). But let\u2019s just go with football for now.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd{\nheight:30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-12  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_codeblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd{\nheight:30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_codeblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-jw2840sd-a46ab5df0baa4ba1772e8ac5ed70f824 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>Football culture in Germany<\/h2>\n<p>While people think of Germans as serious and orderly, that goes out the window in German terraces.

The Bundesliga is also one of Europe\u2019s top competitions and is full of tradition-rich teams. However, that also applies to the second and third divisions, which are now home to lots of famous clubs that even played internationally until very recently, such as Schalke 04 or Werder Bremen.<\/p>\n<p>Hamburg is home to FC St. Pauli, a neighborhood club that has developed a cult following even outside Germany. FC St. Pauli has a distinct countercultural identity and fan clubs all over the world. I myself live in St. Pauli within walking distance from the stadium and often see stickers of St. Pauli fan clubs from places like Glasgow, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/02\/07\/nyregion\/fc-st-pauli-east-river-bar.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York City<\/a> and Buenos Aires. And despite never having won the league, home games at the Millerntor Stadium are always sold out and the atmosphere during games is bombastic.<\/p>\n<h3>Germany\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bundesliga.com\/en\/bundesliga\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bundesliga<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Germany is interesting at a league level because, in many cases, clubs have a very strong regional identity or a deep historical connection. For example, Germany\u2019s Bayern Munich represents Bavarian identity but is also the most popular club in the country \u2013 which is funny because outside Bavaria, Germans otherwise consider the state almost a different country. In the former East Germany, most clubs had a link to the establishment, such as Dynamo Dresden, which was the club of the police. And the two first-division clubs in Berlin, Hertha and Union, represent West and East Berlin, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Germany is much more diverse than meets the eye, too, and this diversity can be translated into football: north and south are very different, and so are east and west. And even within federal states there are many regional differences. My favorite example is SC Freiburg, which represents the Black Forest region near the French and Swiss borders and whose trainer is known all over Germany for his thick regional accent. And then there are differences and rivalries between regions and cities too: D\u00fcsseldorf and Cologne have a big rivalry in general, not only on the pitch, and so do Hamburg and Bremen.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd{\nheight:30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-19  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_codeblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd{\nheight:30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-21  el_after_av_codeblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-jw2840sd-a46ab5df0baa4ba1772e8ac5ed70f824 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>Football culture in the UK<\/h2>\n<p>England is the cradle of the game as we know it. The Football Association was founded in 1863, and many clubs still active today were founded around that time too. In the early years, football spread all over the world from the UK through immigration. There was a lot of British immigration to Latin America due to railroads and mining in the late 19th century, and they brought football with them. Fun fact: Argentina\u2019s league is the world\u2019s second-oldest after the English one.<\/p>\n<p>England\u2019s most successful clubs are based in London, and there is a high concentration of clubs in the capital playing across the entire English league system. The game spread rapidly all over the United Kingdom and took root in Scotland as well, which is home to very old and traditional teams such as Hibernian, Rangers and Celtic.<\/p>\n<h3>British fans<\/h3>\n<p>All over Europe, modern fan culture was influenced by Italian support. However, as opposed to fans in Continental Europe, British fans do not rely on flags to support their teams. There are no organized choreographies and fans usually don\u2019t use drums. Since football was created in the UK, British fans are fiercely protective of their football culture.<\/p>\n<h3>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierleague.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">English Premier League<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>England\u2019s clubs are historic and rich in tradition, and many have huge followings despite having long since fallen down the ladder to the lower leagues, such as Leyton Orient F.C. (founded in 1881). England\u2019s Premier League is, as opposed to the Bundesliga, highly competitive. Whereas in Germany Bayern Munich has won the championship for 10 years in a row, the Premiership is often contested between Manchester City and Manchester United, Liverpool, Leicester and Chelsea, with Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur also constantly at the top of the table.<\/p>\n<h2>Football culture in the US<\/h2>\n<p>Football (locally called soccer) is a new sport in the United States but is rapidly growing in popularity. Previously considered a sport for kids, soccer is gaining in acceptance from adults as well \u2013 in fact, games are often sold out. Atlanta United FC, for example, regularly sells out season tickets despite only having been established in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Soccer is very popular in the Pacific Northwest. In Portland, where I lived before moving to Germany, Portland Timbers games at PGE Park were sold out even before the franchise was moved to the MLS. Plus, soccer is the only sport in which all three main cities in the Pacific Northwest are represented in the same league: the Portland Timbers, the Seattle Sounders and the Vancouver Whitecaps.<\/p>\n<h3>US Fans<\/h3>\n<p>Soccer is a bit of an anomaly when it comes to sports in the USA. While fan culture in all other American sports shares some common elements (big foam hands, anyone?), soccer fans in the USA borrow heavily both from European and Latin American fans. In the USA, Hispanics make up a large portion of soccer fans and they have influenced the style of support. And while soccer culture might still be relatively new in the USA, American supporters are very dedicated and can give European supporters a run for their money any day of the week in terms of passion and creativity. The Cascadia Derby between Portland and Seattle is a great example of this.<\/p>\n<h3>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlssoccer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MLS<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Established in 1993, Major League Soccer (MLS) doesn\u2019t have the tradition of many European or Latin American leagues and has been regarded by many as a joke, with American soccer and American fans not being given any kind of recognition. Soccer is even snubbed by Americans themselves because it is not as popular as, say, baseball or basketball. But that is changing rapidly.<\/p>\n<p>Soccer in the United States works in line with the same principle of franchises of other American sports. Teams are often dissolved and moved to other cities, and new teams are established often, such as David Beckham\u2019s Inter Miami CF, founded in 2018. The MLS is a league where many European stars play at the tail end of their careers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd{\nheight:30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-23  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_image '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jw2823qo-476d1c4183726bdc00f7767e558934f4\">\n.avia-image-container.av-jw2823qo-476d1c4183726bdc00f7767e558934f4 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-jw2823qo-476d1c4183726bdc00f7767e558934f4 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-jw2823qo-476d1c4183726bdc00f7767e558934f4 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-24  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_hr '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-9267 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-9267 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/englishbusiness.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/fan-culture-tickets.jpg\" alt='' title='fan culture tickets'  height=\"400\" width=\"700\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/englishbusiness.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/fan-culture-tickets.jpg 700w, https:\/\/englishbusiness.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/fan-culture-tickets-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/englishbusiness.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/fan-culture-tickets-450x257.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd{\nheight:30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-kghq78dt-d0beab5181e65331c268fec185a9d4dd hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-25  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-jw2840sd-a46ab5df0baa4ba1772e8ac5ed70f824 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>football culture: What makes Euro 2020 special?<\/h2>\n<p>For someone who loves both traveling and football (or soccer, as we call it in North America and basically all over the English-speaking world with the exception of the UK and New Zealand), this year\u2019s competition is particularly exciting because it will be played literally all over the place. London, Rome, Munich, Budapest, St. Petersburg and even Baku, where Europe meets Asia.<\/p>\n<p>Supposed to be a one-off for the 60th anniversary of the competition, Euro 2020 has seen the debut of both North Macedonia and Finland. Scotland is back after 15 years and will play alongside England and Wales (actually normal in rugby tournaments) and the Dutch will return, most likely with a vengeance, after failing to qualify for Euro 2016.<\/p>\n<p><em>So, whether you call it soccer or football \u2013 or Labdar\u00fag\u00e1s, Nogomet or P\u00eal-droed \u2013 we at EnglishBusiness hope you enjoy Euro 2020!
