The next football trip will also be with Groundhopping Tours
The Netherlands, Scotland and Germany are so far the countries I have visited with Groundhopping Tours.
All trips have been absolutely fantastic, and there have been both top matches on the program and matches right down in the lower ranks.
I can only recommend Groundhopping Tours - so they will also plan my next football trip.

A very good experience
A very good experience with Groundhopping Tours, from pre-booking inquiry over booking and info before departure to arrival at the hotel and the entire setup in Dortmund (where we saw Dortmund vs Gladbach) with stadium tour on Friday, match on Saturday and generally just good recommendations for the trip.
Groundhopping Tours gets my absolute warmest recommendation.

Good experience for Boca Juniors match
We were in Buenos Aires on holiday and bought tickets through Groundhopping Tours for Boca Juniors' home game.
Everything about the match worked perfectly with the local guide, so there was no reason for insecurity or confusion about the slightly complicated access procedure.
Things are under control when you buy tickets here - even if it's on the other side of the globe.

🇮🇹 The last days these posters started appearing all over Rome, put there by AS Roma fans and ultras.
They demand the club to bring back their old logo from before 2013. The reaction came after the club on Saturday presented the new home shirt for 2024/2025, still with the current logo.
The text on the poster says: “Ours is a faith. Give us back the logo”.
The former owner, the american, James Pallotta changed the logo of the club in 2013 and since then, some Roma fans have been demanding back the old logo.
💬 Roma fans are welcome to explain more about the demand in the comments… (in English please).

🇮🇹 The Rome Derby is played every day - all year!
These days Rome is experiencing a heat wave with temperatures close up to 40°C and also the Romans are heating up 🔥
On Friday night Roma fans displayed a banner in a neighbourhood called Montesacro (north-eastern part of Rome) saying (translated): “Montesacro is anti-Lazio”.
The next day Lazio fans responded with banner saying (translated): “You didn’t understand sh*t, Montesacro supports Lazio”.
And so the eternal battle continues in the eternal city… 💥🐺🦅
💬 Could Roma or Lazio fans explain why this battle of Montesacro started?
(comments in English please).

🇮🇹 Fedayn - now Gruppo Quadraro.
Historical AS Roma ultra group from 1972. One of the first ultra groups in Italy and still attive in the Curva Sud of Stadio Olimpico.
After loosing their banner “Fedayn” in 2023 to the ultras of Red Star Belgrade, the group changed its name to Gruppo Quadraro.
The group emerged from the neighborhood Quadraro in the eastern part of Rome. A neighborhood known for being political left wing and famous for its resistance against the nazi occupation during the Second World War.
This wallpainting is found in Quadraro and it is the logo of the group. During the upcoming season we will tell the stories in depth, about the ultra groups of AS Roma and SS Lazio.

🇮🇹 Yesterday night Lazio fans took their protest against Lazio president Claudio Lotito to the streets of northern Rome.
According to Italian media more than 10.000 Lazio fans took part in the protest that began in front of the curva nord of Stadio Flaminio and ended in the square of Ponte Milvio (where Lazio fans gather before matches at Stadio Olimpico).
Lazio fans demands that Lotito leave the club, and last night they came out in large numbers using the slogans: “Liberaci dal male” (free os from the evil) and “Libera la Lazio” (Free Lazio).

Welcome to Rome
The Derby della Capitale is perhaps one of the world’s most famous local derbies. It is a match that transforms the entire city of Rome for several days. The two major Roman clubs, AS Roma and SS Lazio, share both the Italian capital and the Olympic Stadium.
SS Lazio is the older of the two clubs, but today AS Roma is the “big brother” with the most fans. The distribution of fans in Rome is approximately 70% Roma fans and 30% Lazio fans. The center and the south of Rome are typical Roma areas, especially the old neighborhoods such as Monti, Trastevere and Testaccio (where AS Roma was founded). Lazio’s fans come primarily from the northern (and more prosperous) parts of Rome, as well as from the suburbs and the Roman hinterland. The first Derby della Capitale was played on the 4th of May 1930. It ended with a 3-1 victory to Roma.AS Roma

Famous Derbies
2004: The “dead” boy’s derby / the aborted derby
On March 21, 2004, one of the most famous Rome derbies was played. The derby became famous because it was never finished. In the beginning of the 00’s, Rome derbies – and matches in general in Italy – were often marked by spectator unrest. As was the case with this particular Rome derby. There had been small disturbances before the match. During the first half of the game, rumors began to circulate – at Roma’s Curva Sud – that a boy had been run over and killed by the police during these disturbances. It later turned out that the boy was not dead. But the rumors sparked an unusual unrest among the fans and especially Roma’s ultras interfered in progress of the football match. It is worth mentioning, that during this time period, both Roma’s and Lazio’s ultras groups were extremely numerous and very powerful, and tensions between fans and police were at their absolute highest. As the second half started, three representatives from Roma’s ultras groups entered the field and demanded to speak to Roma’s captain, Francesco Totti. This lead to a long discussion between the three representatives, Totti and several other Roma players, during which the match was interrupted. The representatives demanded that the match was to be cancelled entirely because of the dead boy, and they threatened with even more riots if the game was to be continued. As all this is happening, both Lazio’s and Roma’s fans are very inflamed and they begin setting off large amounts of fireworks inside the stadium and some begin setting fire to the seats. Under normal circumstances, the two fan groups are arch-enemies, but on this particular occasion the police became their common enemy. It all ends with Totti running back towards the center of the field to talk to the referee, as well as with the security and the police who have arrived by this time. As he passes by Roma’s bench, he shouts the famous words to his coach, Fabio Capello: “If we keep playing, they will kill us”. The match was cancelled. The Roman ultras had collectively demonstrated their power. There are clips from the interruption of the match here: youtube.com/watch?v=35kXqfiV0vE2008: Gabriele Sandri’s derby
On March 19, 2008, Lazio beat Roma 3-2. But this derby was also to be remembered for something else than the battle on the field. It was the first derby after the 28-year-old Lazio fan, Gabriele Sandri, was shot and killed by the police in November 2007. Gabriele Sandri had been on the way to a Lazio away game together with other Lazio fans. At a rest stop in Tuscany, they accidentally encountered some Juventus fans and the two fan groups began fighting each other. The police arrived and shot Gabriele Sandri, who died. The policeman who fired the shot was later convicted and imprisoned for murder. The Rome derby in March 2008 was therefore the first time the two clubs played each other after the death of Gabriele Sandri. What happened this day brings another layer to the understanding of the Rome derby and football in Italy in general. Football fans are well known for their animosity towards other fans, especially their rivals. But on this particular day, the hatchet was buried between the two fan groups and the Roma fans showed a remarkable solidarity with their usual enemies. Before the match, Roma’s fans and the club – represented by Totti – chose to show respect for the late Lazio fan. A group consisting of Totti, Gabriele Sandri’s brother and representatives from the Roma ultras, walked along the running track from the Curva Sud to the front of Lazio’s Curva Nord with flowers and a banner in honor of Gabriele Sandri. They layed out the flowers in front of a large picture of Gabriele Sandri and then spread out a banner with the inscription (translated): “Tears know no colors. Gabriele is one of us. Curva Sud”. This was followed by a big applause from all Lazio fans. The entire stage can be seen here: youtube.com/watch?v=XARWVjnBfcI Today, there is a memorial for Gabriele Sandri at the rest stop in Tuscany (near the city of Arezzo) and at Lazio matches flags with his image can still be seen.A derby that must be experienced
