what do you think the greatest rivalries in football are?
my top 5
1. Boca Juniors vs River Plate (anyone who has seen a game between these 2 knows how big it is. the spectacle of a "superclasico" is amazing, id die to go to a boca/river game)
2. FC Barcelona vs Real Madrid (I know myself being a Barca fan that i hate real madrid and look forward to the barca/real game all year. But im just an australian supprorting barca, this rivalry trancends football dating back to the Franco days and means a lot to Catalans and Madridistas alike. They are also 2 of the best 5 teams in football at any time and often goes a long way to deciding the seasons champion so the football on show is awesome.)
3. Glasgow Celtic vs Glasgow Rangers (I cant stand scottish football, however id be an idiot not to throw this huge rivalry into the mix. These teams hate each other so bad and like the barca/real rivalry it goes further than just football. its also a crucial fixture in deciding who will win the title because everyone else in scotland sucks lol)
4. AS Roma vs SS Lazio (many people dont rate this much but a few years ago in the serie a, on the final day the title came down to Juventus, Inter and Roma. Lazio hosted Inter and the whole game the Lazio fans cheered on Inter and booed their own team so Inter could win the title and not Roma, thats pure hatred. For the record, Juve won who were 3rd place at the start of the day.)
5. Arsenal vs Tottenham Hotspur (I think its bigger than Man U/Man City, generally because Man U fans think their main rivals are Liverpool and think of man city as an afterthought. whereas spurs ans arsenal hate each other.)
