@@ericwang1036 but to ne honest our chances are very Low... But it was a awesome year and Journey... And since then i have the unrealistic hope to do it again
@@maxgraf438hey, still…the man didnt just experience a DFB pokal-finale, but also is seeing his SC play against gotdamn Juventus Turin in the EuroLeague Round of 16. I‘m a Union fan and was at the stadium on thursday to see us play against Saint-Gilloise and even if we don‘t make it - damn am I proud to have witnessed us play at the highest levels there is in football apart from CL. And the same has got to go for Freiburg. Im extremely sad you guys couldn‘t show RB what a real „Traditions“-; hell, what a real normal FUSSBALLKLUB is. because what Freiburg and e.g. Union stand for is real football. football coming from the heart, not stemming out of economic reasons and monetary interest. football from and for the fans. just seeing this type of clubs compete at these highest levels is quite frankly unbelievably beautiful and we must cherish it. i mean you guys put up one freaking hell of a fight against Juve and I gotta be honest (and y’all probably know this) - 95% of people and im sure Juve themselves thought this was gonna be a cakewalk against y’all, especially playing in Turin. they thought they finna demolish SCF 3 or 4:0. and in the end they got lucky that your guys‘ goal was deemed a handball (bc in my eyes that was NOT a blatant, obvious call! couldve been a no-call in meinen augen!). you guys can be so massively proud of your boys in red&black. that in and of itself is an unbelievable achievement and now you guys get to fucking HOST juventus turin at Europa-Park Stadion. isn’t that frigging beautiful and just absolutely mind-boggling? freiburg vs juve in freiburg?!!?! its just outright awesome and for me it‘ll be one of the greatest things to happen in football all year. and you guys have a freaking chance to put up a fight! every club has to take steps to make it to the next level, bayern or dortmund didn’t wake up as CL winners overnight you know. maybe what der SC is doing right now is their path to long-term success! and believe me, i really really freaking hope it is. SUPER SCF! SUPER SCF!
@@maxgraf438sorry für meinen riesen text, max! aber ich als Union fan liebe einfach, was bspw. frankfurt, ihr beim SC und wir eisernen aus köpenick gerade hier auf die beine stellen. und gerade nach dem spiel am donnerstag & den emotionen die wir im stadion ver- & gespürt haben, hat mich das mit diesem video einfach nochmal zum nachdenken gebracht. ich kann euer spiel nächste woche kaum abwarten & drück euch echt so die daumen, dass das wunder von freiburg einfach wahrheit wird & in die geschichte eingeht. wenns einen klub gibt, der das verdient - dann seid ihr das. Allez SC Frieburg! viel spass beim schauen nächste woche & wie gesagt, genieße diese momente - ich mach es genauso. denn leider wissen wir traditionsklubs ohne riesen geldpumperei nie, wie lange sowas tatsächlich anhält, wenn es evlt. mal wieder schwierig wird (& eben kein abramowitsch uns dann 500 mille in den arsch bläst🤢). liebe grüsse aus berlin ins schwobeländle longa! haud die alde krummkicka ausm stadion und zeigt denne mol wo ma gude fussball spiele tät! und ned des rumgeeier do wo nur die auge zumache willsch vor lauter ballet-getanze do!
31:24 - those few seconds with this guy in shot were powerful. He went from "fuck, we lost this" to "my team needs me to cheer them on" there and then. Thats beautiful.
I think it is a place every true fan of every team in the world has been at some point. There is that instance of disappointment followed by the need to acknowledge how proud you are your team made it that far.
The Last Picture of Kevin Kampel, who fills RedBull-Energy in the DFB-Pokal is a fucking disgrace. It's a hate crime against everything for what 50+1 stands and a slap in the face for german football fans. I was literally in tears, when sc freiburg lost against Leipizig.
I am a Leipzig fan I am not from Germany of course but it seems unfair to me that the Germans treat Leipzig badly for me Leipzig is the only team with honor in the Bundesliga apart from Bayern the other teams are only sold to the highest bidder in the Premier League and they never compete
@@Alex-ce1os they are treat badly cause the club only exists cause of RedBull. RedBull wanted to get an Bundesliga Club, cause the other club they have in Europe, RedBull Salzburg, didnt make it into the CL those days, they have always failed at the qualification and in Germany u have 4 direct spots into the CL. So that attracts RedBull and the tried first to get FC St. Pauli and then some another club, i think it was SC Paderborn 07 but im not sure of it, but both clubs refused to change their badge and to change their colors, wich was wanted by RedBull. So RedBull created some club in Leipzig, bought an spot in 6th league from another club which had financial problems, otherwise they should have started in the lowest league of Germany. And with the help of the financial power RedBull has they could easily get up until the first league. The other teams had no chance to compete with the financial power of RedBull. Cause if ur playing in the lower leagues of Germany, u dont have the big sponsors and the big money. And in the first season of Leipzig in the first Bundesliga, they spend so much money like no newly promoted club ever before. They spent 60 or 80 million as an new promoted club in the Bundesliga. Thats maybe normal in the Premier League, but in Germany is normal max. 20 million as an new promoted club in the BUndesliga and even 20 million isnt really normal. So RB Leipzig only exists for marketing and to promote RedBull. And that shows the colors of the club, the badge of the club and the name of the Club, the name of the stadium. RB Leipzig, even if that RB stands offically for RasenBallsport, but naive who thinks thats true. Cause everyone knows RB stands for RedBull. The club has 0 history, its not like some friends wanted to create a club, or some workers wanted to create a club, its because some managers from RedBull wanted to create an club in Germany. Plus the fans have nothing to say in the club, they are only there to cheer for the club. But they cant decide who sits in the board, thats also not likely at the other german clubs. So in the end u can say if RedBull wouldnt exists, the club RB Leipzig would never exists. And a lot of german fans would like it. Cause RB Leizig stands not for the traditional football, which they desire, but for the new football, which is also cause of money and how to gain even more money. Thats why club is treat badly in Germany.
Stop being naive look at Leipzig just show modern football is future . Even bayern keep winning league with Dortmund hard to keep up . and Bundesliga hard to keep they star player
@@Shambles7698 So how did the future loose against my club, Union Berlin, 2 weeks ago just like in the last 4 Bundesliga games we played against them and just finish 1 point ahead of us last season?
Losing without selling your essence is more valuable than winning by selling your soul. Congratulations Freiburg, you won the hearts of all of us. Greetings from Spain
All three episodes had me crying but this one really made me think of what it means to be a club with values. When you travel to new cities you don’t always get to see everything you want so you just have to go back. Freiburg went to a final for the first time, they didn’t get to lift the trophy this time but I’m sure they will go back. Thank you Copa90 for these beautiful stories.
@@elennet4116 and if you actually watched the video, you woul´d understand why its still 10 times better for the fans than the Premier League will ever be
I‘m a Stuttgart Fan. Our cities are maybe 150 km away from each other and have some kind of local rivalry because Freiburg is in the historical region of Baden and Stuttgart is in the region of Württemberg. Anyways I rooted for Freiburg on this evening. Why? Because this club stands for everything that football should stand for. Fair Play, close relationships to the fans, sustainability in terms of managers, sustainable transfers etc. Practically everything, Leipzig doesn’t stand for. I can remember how sad I was when Freiburg lost that game. Even as a Stuttgart fan I don’t know anybody who really hates Freiburg. And now they’re in the Europa League and will Show Europe what real football looks like Grüße aus Stuttgart und viel Glück euch in der Europa League⚽️💪🏼🇩🇪
SC Freiburg fan from China here. Everyone around me who watch Bundesliga support big clubs like Munich or Dortmund, but I love the atmosphere of this rather small club and how they manage to achieve so many things. Really looking forward to watching games in Freiburg.
this touched me so much more than I thought. I’m a young guy from a small town in Minnesota. have never been out of the country. I think my first destination will be Freiburg. Everything about them resonates with me
This game was heartbreaking I’m a Schalke fan, but my uncle is Freiburg fan. When we arrived at the Olympia Stadion the atmosphere was great (only on one side 😉). When the other “Club” won the atmosphere was still great. But that wasn’t a lost for Freiburg, it was a lost for German Football #neinzurb
Really a shame, that a club of privileged people in a calm environment and without a history of violence in football is loosing against a club that was founded with foreign money in a city with violent football history, upset and disenchanted people, combining a new hope with that emerge, which is why RB is very well accepted in a wide area. The problem with your "neinzurb" is that you have no intention and a blithering ignorance to see the whole picture of local circumstances in a geographically and financially one-sided football league (50+1 does not help it).
@@lordmoco4660 you’re making a good point, but I feel like there’s something special about the BuLi, because it’s one of the last big leagues that values their fans and sportsmanship more than it values success. If we want to solve the conflict we now have there needs to be a way to solve it, RB could open up more to fans and give them a possibility to influence the club and on the other hand the people that act like Leibzig don’t exist need to stop because that’s just avoiding problems. Of course it’s understandable that people from the east support RB now because they are successful, why wouldn’t they, but imagine if something goes wrong there and they don’t have a solid fanbase, the club is gonna crumble like a house of cards. Unfortunately I don’t see RB actually using the 50+1 as it was intended (honestly why would they?) but if you really want to keep the unique flair of the Bundesliga than the Leibzig fans should think about how they can take more interest in how their club is run. We’ll see in the coming years.
I am a Manchester United fan from Iceland crying after watching this documentary about the beautiful club that is SC Freiburg. I wish all Freiburg fans good luck in the future.
@@KonsiKing yes we watched it at the flat of one of my mates, 6 guys all in the SCF kits and celebrated so loud that the neighbor came upstairs and asked us for being not that loud 😂
Then stop supporting ManU and start supporting another club (maybe Freiburg)? Clubs such as Freiburg need any and all support that they could get. The new ways of ManU will not change any time soon.
I watched the match live in the stadium with my daughter (10yo) and this is a day I will never forget in my life (and I hope she won´t neither). Watching us lose did not feel that bad that day, because we had ourselves with us (more than 30.000 of us exactly) and we had enough supporting, marching and partying to do that day. Seeing this film made it all come up and for the first time in years I started crying from the bottom of my heart. Not because we lost, not because that can club from the east of Germany w/o any tradition (that was promoted to Bundesliga together with us - behind us!) won, but because I felt proud to have been (and still am) part of the legacy of the club, I fell in love with in 1988. Thanks for these emotions!
Goosebumps...so proud to be a member of this club. Even though I live near the Austrian and Czech Border, so about 400 km maybe 500 km away from Freiburg, this is my club. Thank you Eli, you did an amazing job❤🤍
Immerhin auch aus dem Dreiländereck 😉 jeder der mit herzblut dabei ist, ist bei uns willkommen egal woher er kommt. Grüße aus dem Südschwarzwald nach Bayern 😊
I was looking forward to this. Freiburg is a real underdog without any history of success, other than the previous Betis or Trabzonspor. I like the diversity of clubs featured in this series. Thanks for the great content!
Brilliant brilliant series thank you As a Norwich City supporter I totally emphasise we are a provincial club in the middle of nowhere with ordinary owners and a loyal fan base with 22,000 season ticket holders and a waiting list even when relegated We get promoted to the Premier League regularly but can’t compete in a division where every club is owned by a wealthy organisation or billionaire owner where greed is good and the media are obsessed with big money signings We try our best to invest and compete but the financial jump is too high and we get ridiculed for a different financial model
In all fairness I never paid much notice to SC Freiburg, that has changed after this documentary, I'm seriously impressed. It also reminds me of home, I'm from Eindhoven and a lifelong PSV fan. Now obviously my club comes from a highly corporate background being founded by the Philips Electronics company but I genuinely recognise the laid back attitude around Freiburg from my own hometown and my own team. Much respect to Freiburg from Eindhoven.
Huge respect to Freiburg a truly magical club and an example to others on how a football club should be, as a rangers fan i was also very happy when we beat RB Leipzig at the time because I have always hated everything the Red bull brand stands for in football because it monopolises the game. I also know you pain about losing on penalties 😔. 🇬🇧🤝🏻🇩🇪
As a Sporting CP fan, I really wish SC Freiburg the best! I've always liked the club even thought i never knew the full story and last year I don't know why but was really rooting for them to place high. Seieing them make Europa League was great and I'll be supporting the team from far away. I wish every fan was as passionate as these guys are for their club. I truly hope you win your first trophy soon! The team deserves it but above all, I hope they remain the example of how a team should be. Go Freiburg!
Never heard about Freiburg's story. I do know the city of course and the club but not their history. Another beautiful story, and my disliking of Red Bull as a brand, drink and sports concern has increased even further. It is less ugly as what they did at Salzburg and less bad than being owned by a concern that continuously violates human rights, but it ain't pretty either.
I am a Bayern fan from Singapore. I was attracted to German football due to this values since the 90s. I made good friends with Dortmund fans, went to places like Frankfurt where the frankfurt fans are so friendly and passionate. I was impressed by so many German clubs for their values, esp Union Berlin. Please don't give up these values, you have our support!!!
As an American fan of the sport, it wasn't easy to watch anything other than EPL, now with better streaming options I can get into the other leagues more, but was struggling to find teams to back as I could never gain a connection. This series has given me that connection. I'll be rooting for Freiburg and Betis because of this series. Need more of these please!
I feel this HARD. I need something to get me through the domestic offseason and EPL is pretty much everything wrong with modern football (and yeah, I know our system has a lot of similar problems too, but it's local and usually during the summer when nothing else is on). Before this series I knew not much about Betis, Trabzonspor, and Freiburg's stories other than "they exist." Now I would run through walls for them.
Freiburg....I knew who they were, but I didn't know the history behind them. It's a beautiful city tho....very beautiful city. Full of nature. Also, in the beginning of this video, they didn't call for the managers head!!!!!! In most clubs, in mid-season that guy will probably be gone.
I'm from the UK but have a strong affinity for Freiburg as I fell in love there once and been to the city several times. This is a wonderful documentary of what football should be.
Ended up out with some Freiburg fans after their win against Augsburg the other week, really good set of fans and the team plays some really good stuff
These videos are so underrated and don't get anywhere near the views they should. Some of the best football content out there, making documentaries like nobody else! Love it
Freiburg is everything I'd want my club to be. It truly embodies a people and a place. You may not have won the cup, but you stand for what is good in football.
Copa90 Stories and specifically this 'Once in a lifetime' section is by far the best football show right now. All major media outlets just give the same stories and fawn over the same things over and over again for the usual teams. This show gives value to the time you spend watching it. TOP quality. I would love for all those football fans from abroad that support European teams to watch this section before taking the usual easy route of supporting the same old teams. This is football as it's meant to be not what the likes of City, PSG, Real, Bayern and other powerhouses are turning the game into.
What a bittersweet day it has been in Berlin and this documentary brings back all the emotions I guess all of us had that day. So proud of this club and each and everyone making their way to Berlin and marching the streets like it was a home game to the incredible support during the whole game to the absolute numbness everyone felt after the game as we were so close winning that cup. But after a few days of feeling down it was time to look forward again. And we're off to a good start again this year and can even travel to interesting places in Europe/Eurasia. So see you in Baku in November when we'll march their streets! :-) NUR DER SCF!
Amazing that Marius talked about Freiburg not managing being the favorite, and that you transformed that to being up one player and 1-0. It was true, the players (and trainer Christian Streich!) suddenly felt they had something to lose! I've tried to watch the final again, but only gotten through the first half. Totally forgot how close we were in the extra time. This documentary was a good step for me to prepare for the second half.
I'm originally from berlin, but I moved to Freiburg for university. The DFB pokal finale was 1 or 2 years after I moved here and I watched the finale in a pub with friends. there were fans in our pub who couldn't get tickets for berlin, but made the pub to their stadium. When the match was over and I took the tram back home you could literally see how sad everyone was :(
I am from east germany and live only 2 hours away from Leipzig but Freiburg is the club i love. Everyone with a heart for football can see that Freiburgs way is worth supporting, no matter where your from.
This gave me the chills, besides the name and being a German club I never knew much about the club; but wow its like a football experience from a forgotten era (amazing local support). I hope you guys will play another final and bring that cup home, much respect from an Ajax supporter.
it is so bizarre to see my hometown and my club on Copa90 but it also feels really really good. As a true Freiburger Bobbele I am insanely proud of this club, the fans and everything we have achieved. We will keep doing it the Freiburg way!
What a feel good story apart from the disappointment at the end. Awesome way they run the club and can hold their heads high knowing they haven’t sold their soul to the devil to win countless trophies. Watched a documentary about Union Berlin a while back and have since started following them, they’re having an amzing season so far so here’s hoping they keep going. Best of luck to Freiburg and their fans for the future
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this wonderful video series! In a sea of content that emphasizes modern football and all the financial things that have destroyed the passionate spirit of the game, including removing the old fans who found themselves in their team's identity and replacing them with tourists who are nothing more than simple "clients", it is nice to see the story of some teams and some fans who live a thousand sufferings and failures for a single moment of hope or even success (as was the case with Trabzonspor). Thank you, COPA90! As ultras/hooligans/casuals or even simple fans "we refuse to know our place" in the sad reality of modern football!
I really hoped you do an episode about Freiburg one day and there it is ❤ Thank you. great club, great fans. Standing for the values most supporters like in football. Of course it's a professional club that needs to play by the rules of the business but still trying to never forget about the core values. Lastly, the fan base is mostly really relaxed and diverse. looking forward to the next games I'll attend.
The biggest compliment I can pay Eli and the team that make this series and others like derby days is that I immediately look at flights and fixtures after I’ve watched them. It opens up the football soul and it’s a beautiful thing.
I love the documentaries Eli does! Especially as a German football fan who supports another small club in the Bundesliga. I've always liked Freiburg cause they're doing good and honest work. It's incredible how good they're doing their job given the resources they have available and I'm very glad they're a part of the Bundesliga and get this kind of attention. It would have been the best thing in the world to see RBL lose to them in the final but even making it to the final was a great success for Freiburg. I really hope they can keep it up and stay in like the top 7 of the Bundesliga for some time so people see that it doesn't always have to be about money and the big sponsors but about doing your job really well and being patient. Much love from Mainz
Lovely series, this is what football is all about! Maybe you guys can come to Zwolle once in the Netherlands. We defeated the big Ajax in the national cup final with 5 to 1 in 2014. Talking about once in a lifetime...
This series has been absolutely wonderful, and Eli is a terrific storyteller. And wow Freiburg as a city looks gorgeous. would love to visit sometime. love from the states :)
Eli has given his heart and soul to these series and I don't think a club like Freiburg would have given him the access that they did without his genuine love for the sport. I think it reflects well on him that you can see all sorts of fans immediately accepting him into their ranks
Freiburg are one of my favourite respective footballing clubs just like all of the respective footballing clubs in Germany and they are one of the respective smallest clubs,good friends!!!They are a massive club with massive respective supporters who have faced some obstacles to make,not just the footballing club,but the city!!!The club have been improving extremely so well year by year till being a top six club in the German Bundesliga and I fully hope they would be in future,slowly start winning major honours despite losing the final of the last season German Cup after drawing 1-1 till the end of the extra time,good friends!!!LONG LIVE,FREIBURG!!!🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️
Music at 24:05 anyone? Insane documentary. Lots of love for COPA90 and SC Freiburg from an Al Ahly fan (a club who the SC Freiburg Nordtribüne has show great solidarity towards)
Man, this was a great video. I was close to tears when a club I had never heard of forty minutes ago got so close to winning the league. But I still think that Freiburg is one of the most wholesome clubs out there. Thank you for making this.
I‘m a Freiburg supporter since my childhood and I was in the Olympiastadion this may at the cup final. Personally it is the biggest and most emotional game I can remember. I‘m literally in tears watching this video. From the bottom of my heart: Thank you! ❤ Thanks to all the people you met. Come back soon to our beautiful city, you are always welcome ✌🏻
Thank you for this. Just brilliant. What an club Freiburg, City and supporters and fans. I am impressed. And right now in 1st in Bundesliga keep it up!! 🔥❤️ What a great documentary
Thank you Copa90 for this amazing documentary! As a lifelong Freiburg supporter witnessing this wonderful day in the stadium I can only tell from experience there is nothing more important than the community around your club. I was absolutely unable to feel sad after the match, even I was surprised about it, specially with the events being so dramatic and losing against a club like RB. We‘ve been just thankful and celebrated our team after the match who gave us the opportunity to experience this day as a community. It was everything we could wish for. Thanks again Copa90 to keep reminding us what’s important! Never let anyone sell your identity to (maybe) win a trophy one day! And looking forward to meet more communities around Europe now in the Europa League ;)
I am a fan of SCF since their first appearance in BuLi in 1991 and (voting) member for almost 20 years (born there, but actually not living in Freiburg itself) and I am simply wow-ed by this documentary. It really gets to the T what this - my hometown club - means to me, to us. When Freiburg played Bayern in Munich two weeks ago (Freiburg lost 0-5 due to a very poor unusual performance that day) I had a car sharing passenger on the way back home after the match who was a Bayern supporter, and he actually told me how much he hated Freiburg because of the way they underestimate and understate their own successes in the past 5 years! I couldn't believe how someone could hate that kind of mentality. He couldn't understand how the club still has the "audacity" to claim to be the underdog after having won their 4 consecutive games in the 2022 Europa League so far and being placed 3rd atm in BuLi, playing top 6 for the last few seasons, adding to their Cup finals last year. And it was actually hard for me to explain why this really was the Freiburg way of thinking. I finally was able to convince him that this mentality was authentic, because the last two times we qualified for and played Europa League (or UEFA Cup back then), we were relegated those same seasons because of our small and thin - almost amateur like roster, and this time is the VERY FIRST time that we play three different cups and championships with a roster that might be able to handle this workload. It's some kind of "fear" of the "big clubs' football" that we (still) might have in Freiburg. And this video really puts all of this fear together. Really great work, and THANK YOU @COPA90Stories for depicting the feelings we all have for our small SCF! ⚫🔴
One of the best series. I love this series. Even I cried when they lost even though I already now the result. Whaat a great story teller Copa90. Forever will be your fan!
this doco is by far my favourite, absolutely unreal story. a club doing things the right way for the city and its fans and they're doing really well in the bundesliga too so i hope they achieve cup success soon. my favourite german team now without a doubt
Probably the most important docu anyone has made on the situation of modern football. As a former fan and enthusiast from Hamburg I have completely turned my back to football, hardly watching anything for years now. Football is such a corrupt money driven industry (yes, I said industry, a word that shouldn't be mentioned in one sentence with football, yet here we are) it has got nothing to do with the average fan and it's not even about fun anymore. A club like Freiburg is a rarety and a jewel and reflects what football should be about. But I am sorry to say that this is a relict of the past that never comes back.
Ich bin seit über 30 Jahren Fan des SC Freiburg, ich finde diese Doku so was von fantastisch, vor allem Manuel und Helen, zwei ganz tolle Menschen. Alles Liebe und viel Gesundheit an alle Fans und Angestellten vom SC Freiburg, ich weis nicht ob ich es gut finde wie es gerade steht in der Tabelle, aber irgendwie freut mich das ungeheuerlich, was der Verein dieses Jahr geleistet hat, da hätten Sie es verdient nicht nur die Mannschaft des Jahres, sondern der Verein des Jahres zu werden.
that was the most beautiful video about our club that i have ever seen. all the peculiarities of football as it should be worked out. all the differences to a pay to win club like leipzig pointed out. thanks for that. the true cup winner. never give up. no power to the corporations.
A thoroughly researched and well put-together documentary about my favourite club, thank you so much for bringing SC Freiburg's story to an international audience. I was very lucky to be in the Dreisamstadion in the early 90s when they played their last home game before being promoted to the Bundesliga for the first time - scoring goals 96 to 100 of that season - the atmosphere was electric. It was the Breisgau Brasilianers' rise in a stadium where the pitch was too short and trees around it were often used by fans to get a better view. That they have kept decent values in a world of ever-more money and bullying is a testimony to their management and fans. And to the players who come here and realise what a unique place it is to belong to. Nur der SCF
Didn't know ur club story.. Which is amazing, I'm speechless they way Freiburg fans love their club. From today u have one more supporter, regards from Sevilla, more known as Real Betis city. BTW, thx Copa 90,what you are doing for football is remarcable.. I hope one day we all could enjoy a real and emocional football without artificial teams like Leipzig or psg
I work in Freiburg and only live 15min. from it, fan of the Sport-Club since i can think. I love the club for being himself and will always do, its so heartwarming to see some people from different countries acknowledging this region because if you grow up in this part of germany, its a bit like living in nowhere, nobody in this country knows our region, but they will know the SC Freiburg
Which is why I like watching Bundesliga - I went to Germany in 2015 and caught 32 games across 21 cities, and I think every game the fans make it feel that the club belongs to them.
Big club with business minded never understand their fans, that the reason why we love small club... Even my local club didn't win anything after 11 years & only had 4 trophies in club history, but for the love & passion we still support the team
I have loved every episode in this series. I relate so much more to these clubs growing up where I did in Ohio halfway between Cleveland and Columbus and being just several years removed from nearly losing a second team I loved to the greatest evil in American sports culture; the franchise model and the ability of ownership groups moving clubs to other cities in the pursuit of profit and success. I absolutely want to visit Freiburg now.
Being a Freiburg Fan since I can remember and of course also having been in Berlin, this Documentary brought tears to my eyes. I am so proud of my Club! 🔴⚪️ Thank you so much for telling our Story.
When the elderly man said “I almost certainly wont see another final” 🥺
💔
I really hope he can see another final !!!
@@ericwang1036 but to ne honest our chances are very Low... But it was a awesome year and Journey... And since then i have the unrealistic hope to do it again
@@maxgraf438hey, still…the man didnt just experience a DFB pokal-finale, but also is seeing his SC play against gotdamn Juventus Turin in the EuroLeague Round of 16. I‘m a Union fan and was at the stadium on thursday to see us play against Saint-Gilloise and even if we don‘t make it - damn am I proud to have witnessed us play at the highest levels there is in football apart from CL. And the same has got to go for Freiburg.
Im extremely sad you guys couldn‘t show RB what a real „Traditions“-; hell, what a real normal FUSSBALLKLUB is. because what Freiburg and e.g. Union stand for is real football. football coming from the heart, not stemming out of economic reasons and monetary interest. football from and for the fans. just seeing this type of clubs compete at these highest levels is quite frankly unbelievably beautiful and we must cherish it.
i mean you guys put up one freaking hell of a fight against Juve and I gotta be honest (and y’all probably know this) - 95% of people and im sure Juve themselves thought this was gonna be a cakewalk against y’all, especially playing in Turin. they thought they finna demolish SCF 3 or 4:0. and in the end they got lucky that your guys‘ goal was deemed a handball (bc in my eyes that was NOT a blatant, obvious call! couldve been a no-call in meinen augen!). you guys can be so massively proud of your boys in red&black.
that in and of itself is an unbelievable achievement and now you guys get to fucking HOST juventus turin at Europa-Park Stadion. isn’t that frigging beautiful and just absolutely mind-boggling?
freiburg vs juve in freiburg?!!?! its just outright awesome and for me it‘ll be one of the greatest things to happen in football all year. and you guys have a freaking chance to put up a fight!
every club has to take steps to make it to the next level, bayern or dortmund didn’t wake up as CL winners overnight you know. maybe what der SC is doing right now is their path to long-term success! and believe me, i really really freaking hope it is. SUPER SCF! SUPER SCF!

viel spass beim schauen nächste woche & wie gesagt, genieße diese momente - ich mach es genauso. denn leider wissen wir traditionsklubs ohne riesen geldpumperei nie, wie lange sowas tatsächlich anhält, wenn es evlt. mal wieder schwierig wird (& eben kein abramowitsch uns dann 500 mille in den arsch bläst🤢). liebe grüsse aus berlin ins schwobeländle longa! haud die alde krummkicka ausm stadion und zeigt denne mol wo ma gude fussball spiele tät! und ned des rumgeeier do wo nur die auge zumache willsch vor lauter ballet-getanze do!
31:24 - those few seconds with this guy in shot were powerful. He went from "fuck, we lost this" to "my team needs me to cheer them on" there and then. Thats beautiful.
I think it is a place every true fan of every team in the world has been at some point. There is that instance of disappointment followed by the need to acknowledge how proud you are your team made it that far.
The Last Picture of Kevin Kampel, who fills RedBull-Energy in the DFB-Pokal is a fucking disgrace.
It's a hate crime against everything for what 50+1 stands and a slap in the face for german football fans.
I was literally in tears, when sc freiburg lost against Leipizig.
i am not even an freiburg fan, a liked them and nowadays i am a bit jealousy because they are succsefull in the league and better then my club.
I am a Leipzig fan I am not from Germany of course but it seems unfair to me that the Germans treat Leipzig badly for me Leipzig is the only team with honor in the Bundesliga apart from Bayern the other teams are only sold to the highest bidder in the Premier League and they never compete
@@Alex-ce1os they are treat badly cause the club only exists cause of RedBull. RedBull wanted to get an Bundesliga Club, cause the other club they have in Europe, RedBull Salzburg, didnt make it into the CL those days, they have always failed at the qualification and in Germany u have 4 direct spots into the CL.
So that attracts RedBull and the tried first to get FC St. Pauli and then some another club, i think it was SC Paderborn 07 but im not sure of it, but both clubs refused to change their badge and to change their colors, wich was wanted by RedBull.
So RedBull created some club in Leipzig, bought an spot in 6th league from another club which had financial problems, otherwise they should have started in the lowest league of Germany. And with the help of the financial power RedBull has they could easily get up until the first league. The other teams had no chance to compete with the financial power of RedBull. Cause if ur playing in the lower leagues of Germany, u dont have the big sponsors and the big money.
And in the first season of Leipzig in the first Bundesliga, they spend so much money like no newly promoted club ever before. They spent 60 or 80 million as an new promoted club in the Bundesliga. Thats maybe normal in the Premier League, but in Germany is normal max. 20 million as an new promoted club in the BUndesliga and even 20 million isnt really normal.
So RB Leipzig only exists for marketing and to promote RedBull. And that shows the colors of the club, the badge of the club and the name of the Club, the name of the stadium. RB Leipzig, even if that RB stands offically for RasenBallsport, but naive who thinks thats true. Cause everyone knows RB stands for RedBull.
The club has 0 history, its not like some friends wanted to create a club, or some workers wanted to create a club, its because some managers from RedBull wanted to create an club in Germany.
Plus the fans have nothing to say in the club, they are only there to cheer for the club. But they cant decide who sits in the board, thats also not likely at the other german clubs.
So in the end u can say if RedBull wouldnt exists, the club RB Leipzig would never exists. And a lot of german fans would like it. Cause RB Leizig stands not for the traditional football, which they desire, but for the new football, which is also cause of money and how to gain even more money.
Thats why club is treat badly in Germany.
Stop being naive look at Leipzig just show modern football is future . Even bayern keep winning league with Dortmund hard to keep up . and Bundesliga hard to keep they star player
@@Shambles7698 So how did the future loose against my club, Union Berlin, 2 weeks ago just like in the last 4 Bundesliga games we played against them and just finish 1 point ahead of us last season?
Losing without selling your essence is more valuable than winning by selling your soul.
Congratulations Freiburg, you won the hearts of all of us.
Greetings from Spain
Leipzig never had a soul to begin with
Gets a massive 'amen' from me.
All three episodes had me crying but this one really made me think of what it means to be a club with values. When you travel to new cities you don’t always get to see everything you want so you just have to go back. Freiburg went to a final for the first time, they didn’t get to lift the trophy this time but I’m sure they will go back. Thank you Copa90 for these beautiful stories.
These year Freiburg will win the Cup.I hope🤞🏾

I‘m a Stuttgart Fan. Our cities are maybe 150 km away from each other and have some kind of local rivalry because Freiburg is in the historical region of Baden and Stuttgart is in the region of Württemberg. Anyways I rooted for Freiburg on this evening. Why? Because this club stands for everything that football should stand for. Fair Play, close relationships to the fans, sustainability in terms of managers, sustainable transfers etc. Practically everything, Leipzig doesn’t stand for. I can remember how sad I was when Freiburg lost that game. Even as a Stuttgart fan I don’t know anybody who really hates Freiburg. And now they’re in the Europa League and will Show Europe what real football looks like
Grüße aus Stuttgart und viel Glück euch in der Europa League⚽️💪🏼🇩🇪
Glad to see the VfB back in the Bundesliga.
Naja Freiburg und Stuttgart haben beide in den 70er bi Anfang der 90er ihren Spielern Dopingmittel verabreicht. Ob das jetzt besser ist🤔

The Kevin Kampl picture in the end…that did hurt, it really did!
this touched me so much more than I thought. I’m a young guy from a small town in Minnesota. have never been out of the country. I think my first destination will be Freiburg. Everything about them resonates with me
And the message is so uplifting: As long as you stay involved there is always hope.
This game was heartbreaking I’m a Schalke fan, but my uncle is Freiburg fan. When we arrived at the Olympia Stadion the atmosphere was great (only on one side 😉). When the other “Club” won the atmosphere was still great. But that wasn’t a lost for Freiburg, it was a lost for German Football #neinzurb
RB ist die einzige Lösung gegen die Bayern Dominanz
Really a shame, that a club of privileged people in a calm environment and without a history of violence in football is loosing against a club that was founded with foreign money in a city with violent football history, upset and disenchanted people, combining a new hope with that emerge, which is why RB is very well accepted in a wide area. The problem with your "neinzurb" is that you have no intention and a blithering ignorance to see the whole picture of local circumstances in a geographically and financially one-sided football league (50+1 does not help it).
@@lordmoco4660 you’re making a good point, but I feel like there’s something special about the BuLi, because it’s one of the last big leagues that values their fans and sportsmanship more than it values success. If we want to solve the conflict we now have there needs to be a way to solve it, RB could open up more to fans and give them a possibility to influence the club and on the other hand the people that act like Leibzig don’t exist need to stop because that’s just avoiding problems. Of course it’s understandable that people from the east support RB now because they are successful, why wouldn’t they, but imagine if something goes wrong there and they don’t have a solid fanbase, the club is gonna crumble like a house of cards. Unfortunately I don’t see RB actually using the 50+1 as it was intended (honestly why would they?) but if you really want to keep the unique flair of the Bundesliga than the Leibzig fans should think about how they can take more interest in how their club is run. We’ll see in the coming years.

Then stop supporting ManU and start supporting another club (maybe Freiburg)? Clubs such as Freiburg need any and all support that they could get. The new ways of ManU will not change any time soon.
Another world class doc! You guys are simply the best at telling these stories! Hope you realize the importance of your work! It’s timeless!
😂😂 tu veux quoi toi
I watched the match live in the stadium with my daughter (10yo) and this is a day I will never forget in my life (and I hope she won´t neither). Watching us lose did not feel that bad that day, because we had ourselves with us (more than 30.000 of us exactly) and we had enough supporting, marching and partying to do that day. Seeing this film made it all come up and for the first time in years I started crying from the bottom of my heart. Not because we lost, not because that can club from the east of Germany w/o any tradition (that was promoted to Bundesliga together with us - behind us!) won, but because I felt proud to have been (and still am) part of the legacy of the club, I fell in love with in 1988. Thanks for these emotions!

Freiburg are HYPOCRITES. They deserved this and it will forever feel better than winning this easy
NOW THEY ARE FIRST PLACED IN THE BL
Me, as a Freiburg fan got "pipi in die Augen" watching this. Thanks for showing how amazing this club is!
Never will forget the feeling I had in Berlin. Still have tears in my eyes! So proud to be a part of SCFreiburg!
Brilliant brilliant series thank you
As a Norwich City supporter I totally emphasise we are a provincial club in the middle of nowhere with ordinary owners and a loyal fan base with 22,000 season ticket holders and a waiting list even when relegated
We get promoted to the Premier League regularly but can’t compete in a division where every club is owned by a wealthy organisation or billionaire owner where greed is good and the media are obsessed with big money signings
We try our best to invest and compete but the financial jump is too high and we get ridiculed for a different financial model
This series is like the much-needed sequel to Derby Days. I love it! Keep up the fantastic work, Eli and COPA90

In all fairness I never paid much notice to SC Freiburg, that has changed after this documentary, I'm seriously impressed. It also reminds me of home, I'm from Eindhoven and a lifelong PSV fan. Now obviously my club comes from a highly corporate background being founded by the Philips Electronics company but I genuinely recognise the laid back attitude around Freiburg from my own hometown and my own team. Much respect to Freiburg from Eindhoven.
Huge respect to Freiburg a truly magical club and an example to others on how a football club should be, as a rangers fan i was also very happy when we beat RB Leipzig at the time because I have always hated everything the Red bull brand stands for in football because it monopolises the game. I also know you pain about losing on penalties 😔. 🇬🇧🤝🏻🇩🇪
As a Freiburg fan thank you for doing something to Leipzig we couldnt
Good to hear, that not only us germans hate RB Leipzig. It's the duty of every european to not accept this "club"!
So proud to see my club at this channel and still so proud on our team that we made it to the final 🤍❤️
love from dortmund mate
As a Sporting CP fan, I really wish SC Freiburg the best! I've always liked the club even thought i never knew the full story and last year I don't know why but was really rooting for them to place high. Seieing them make Europa League was great and I'll be supporting the team from far away. I wish every fan was as passionate as these guys are for their club. I truly hope you win your first trophy soon! The team deserves it but above all, I hope they remain the example of how a team should be. Go Freiburg!
Never heard about Freiburg's story. I do know the city of course and the club but not their history. Another beautiful story, and my disliking of Red Bull as a brand, drink and sports concern has increased even further. It is less ugly as what they did at Salzburg and less bad than being owned by a concern that continuously violates human rights, but it ain't pretty either.
Red Bull dunks so hard on their competition, you could call it a human rights violation 🗣🔥
I am a Bayern fan from Singapore. I was attracted to German football due to this values since the 90s. I made good friends with Dortmund fans, went to places like Frankfurt where the frankfurt fans are so friendly and passionate. I was impressed by so many German clubs for their values, esp Union Berlin. Please don't give up these values, you have our support!!!
SC Freiburg - a true football club - good luck in the future!!
As an American fan of the sport, it wasn't easy to watch anything other than EPL, now with better streaming options I can get into the other leagues more, but was struggling to find teams to back as I could never gain a connection. This series has given me that connection. I'll be rooting for Freiburg and Betis because of this series. Need more of these please!
I feel this HARD. I need something to get me through the domestic offseason and EPL is pretty much everything wrong with modern football (and yeah, I know our system has a lot of similar problems too, but it's local and usually during the summer when nothing else is on).
Before this series I knew not much about Betis, Trabzonspor, and Freiburg's stories other than "they exist." Now I would run through walls for them.
@@valpix7007 Norwich are very similar club to Freiburg but they get ridiculed for "not trying to stay up"
Welcome to the club my friend. For just around 50 bucks a year you can even become co-owner/member ;) (50+1 forever!)

You guys make videos on such a high level of everything. Big Respect to the Team and Cutter.
Freiburg....I knew who they were, but I didn't know the history behind them. It's a beautiful city tho....very beautiful city. Full of nature.
Also, in the beginning of this video, they didn't call for the managers head!!!!!! In most clubs, in mid-season that guy will probably be gone.
This documentation makes me proud to be a young Freiburger!
Much love ❤️
I'm from the UK but have a strong affinity for Freiburg as I fell in love there once and been to the city several times. This is a wonderful documentary of what football should be.
Absolutely LOVING this series the 3 episodes so far have been great. Freiburg your are an amazing place and football club. From a Glasgow Celtic fan 🍀
Ended up out with some Freiburg fans after their win against Augsburg the other week, really good set of fans and the team plays some really good stuff
These videos are so underrated and don't get anywhere near the views they should. Some of the best football content out there, making documentaries like nobody else! Love it
Freiburg is everything I'd want my club to be. It truly embodies a people and a place. You may not have won the cup, but you stand for what is good in football.

Copa90 Stories and specifically this 'Once in a lifetime' section is by far the best football show right now. All major media outlets just give the same stories and fawn over the same things over and over again for the usual teams. This show gives value to the time you spend watching it. TOP quality. I would love for all those football fans from abroad that support European teams to watch this section before taking the usual easy route of supporting the same old teams. This is football as it's meant to be not what the likes of City, PSG, Real, Bayern and other powerhouses are turning the game into.
GOAT Documentary ❤️🫶🏽 so much love from a German boy and a SC Freiburg Fan since he was little kid. Thank u for this unforgettable Video 🥳
I guess the SC in SC Freiburg stands for Special Club. Great series, thoroughly enjoyed it !
Loved the rivalry stories but this series is just as brilliant
What a bittersweet day it has been in Berlin and this documentary brings back all the emotions I guess all of us had that day. So proud of this club and each and everyone making their way to Berlin and marching the streets like it was a home game to the incredible support during the whole game to the absolute numbness everyone felt after the game as we were so close winning that cup. But after a few days of feeling down it was time to look forward again. And we're off to a good start again this year and can even travel to interesting places in Europe/Eurasia. So see you in Baku in November when we'll march their streets! :-) NUR DER SCF!
Love this series.. keep em coming
must agree... this is what football should be all about!!
Freiburg sounds like a lovely city filled with great people. I would love to visit there some day.
Amazing that Marius talked about Freiburg not managing being the favorite, and that you transformed that to being up one player and 1-0. It was true, the players (and trainer Christian Streich!) suddenly felt they had something to lose!
I've tried to watch the final again, but only gotten through the first half. Totally forgot how close we were in the extra time. This documentary was a good step for me to prepare for the second half.
been looking into this, i am a Filipino but i support Freiburg. hopefully we see more 😁
I'm originally from berlin, but I moved to Freiburg for university. The DFB pokal finale was 1 or 2 years after I moved here and I watched the finale in a pub with friends. there were fans in our pub who couldn't get tickets for berlin, but made the pub to their stadium. When the match was over and I took the tram back home you could literally see how sad everyone was :(
Genius video! I think nearly whole football Germany stood behind Freiburg at this final. For me the season 21/22 had no winner of the DFB Pokal.
#NeinzuRB
I am from east germany and live only 2 hours away from Leipzig but Freiburg is the club i love. Everyone with a heart for football can see that Freiburgs way is worth supporting, no matter where your from.
This gave me the chills, besides the name and being a German club I never knew much about the club; but wow its like a football experience from a forgotten era (amazing local support). I hope you guys will play another final and bring that cup home, much respect from an Ajax supporter.
it is so bizarre to see my hometown and my club on Copa90 but it also feels really really good. As a true Freiburger Bobbele I am insanely proud of this club, the fans and everything we have achieved. We will keep doing it the Freiburg way!
3/3 episodes and I've cried in all of them. I don't know how much longer I can do this man
Can honestly say i have never been as nervous watching the outcome of a game other than my own team. Stand strong. Best wishes from 🏴
What a feel good story apart from the disappointment at the end. Awesome way they run the club and can hold their heads high knowing they haven’t sold their soul to the devil to win countless trophies. Watched a documentary about Union Berlin a while back and have since started following them, they’re having an amzing season so far so here’s hoping they keep going. Best of luck to Freiburg and their fans for the future
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this wonderful video series! In a sea of content that emphasizes modern football and all the financial things that have destroyed the passionate spirit of the game, including removing the old fans who found themselves in their team's identity and replacing them with tourists who are nothing more than simple "clients", it is nice to see the story of some teams and some fans who live a thousand sufferings and failures for a single moment of hope or even success (as was the case with Trabzonspor). Thank you, COPA90! As ultras/hooligans/casuals or even simple fans "we refuse to know our place" in the sad reality of modern football!
I really hoped you do an episode about Freiburg one day and there it is ❤ Thank you.
great club, great fans. Standing for the values most supporters like in football. Of course it's a professional club that needs to play by the rules of the business but still trying to never forget about the core values. Lastly, the fan base is mostly really relaxed and diverse. looking forward to the next games I'll attend.
The biggest compliment I can pay Eli and the team that make this series and others like derby days is that I immediately look at flights and fixtures after I’ve watched them. It opens up the football soul and it’s a beautiful thing.
agreed!
amazing video, I never knew about freiburg before watching this, so glad to know a club like this exists
I love the documentaries Eli does! Especially as a German football fan who supports another small club in the Bundesliga. I've always liked Freiburg cause they're doing good and honest work. It's incredible how good they're doing their job given the resources they have available and I'm very glad they're a part of the Bundesliga and get this kind of attention. It would have been the best thing in the world to see RBL lose to them in the final but even making it to the final was a great success for Freiburg. I really hope they can keep it up and stay in like the top 7 of the Bundesliga for some time so people see that it doesn't always have to be about money and the big sponsors but about doing your job really well and being patient.
Much love from Mainz
Lovely series, this is what football is all about! Maybe you guys can come to Zwolle once in the Netherlands. We defeated the big Ajax in the national cup final with 5 to 1 in 2014. Talking about once in a lifetime...
This series has been absolutely wonderful, and Eli is a terrific storyteller.
And wow Freiburg as a city looks gorgeous. would love to visit sometime. love from the states :)
Yes it is a beautiful city and the region around Freiburg is even more beautiful!
yeah freiburg is an amazing place and i coulnd think of leaving it... with my footballing heart here as well
Epic movie - we Freiburg fans say thank you. You nailed the story about our team :)
Eli has given his heart and soul to these series and I don't think a club like Freiburg would have given him the access that they did without his genuine love for the sport. I think it reflects well on him that you can see all sorts of fans immediately accepting him into their ranks

I‘m literally in tears watching this video. From the bottom of my heart: Thank you! ❤ Thanks to all the people you met. Come back soon to our beautiful city, you are always welcome ✌🏻
Thank you for this. Just brilliant. What an club Freiburg, City and supporters and fans. I am impressed. And right now in 1st in Bundesliga keep it up!! 🔥❤️ What a great documentary
i‘m in tears! Great docu!
Thank you Copa90 for this amazing documentary!
As a lifelong Freiburg supporter witnessing this wonderful day in the stadium I can only tell from experience there is nothing more important than the community around your club. I was absolutely unable to feel sad after the match, even I was surprised about it, specially with the events being so dramatic and losing against a club like RB.
We‘ve been just thankful and celebrated our team after the match who gave us the opportunity to experience this day as a community. It was everything we could wish for.
Thanks again Copa90 to keep reminding us what’s important! Never let anyone sell your identity to (maybe) win a trophy one day!
And looking forward to meet more communities around Europe now in the Europa League ;)
I have been waiting for this literally since morning. Refreshing your channel.
Ah well, didn't plan on crying today. What a masterpiece you made here. Thanks for the good work.
I am a fan of SCF since their first appearance in BuLi in 1991 and (voting) member for almost 20 years (born there, but actually not living in Freiburg itself) and I am simply wow-ed by this documentary. It really gets to the T what this - my hometown club - means to me, to us.
When Freiburg played Bayern in Munich two weeks ago (Freiburg lost 0-5 due to a very poor unusual performance that day) I had a car sharing passenger on the way back home after the match who was a Bayern supporter, and he actually told me how much he hated Freiburg because of the way they underestimate and understate their own successes in the past 5 years! I couldn't believe how someone could hate that kind of mentality. He couldn't understand how the club still has the "audacity" to claim to be the underdog after having won their 4 consecutive games in the 2022 Europa League so far and being placed 3rd atm in BuLi, playing top 6 for the last few seasons, adding to their Cup finals last year.
And it was actually hard for me to explain why this really was the Freiburg way of thinking. I finally was able to convince him that this mentality was authentic, because the last two times we qualified for and played Europa League (or UEFA Cup back then), we were relegated those same seasons because of our small and thin - almost amateur like roster, and this time is the VERY FIRST time that we play three different cups and championships with a roster that might be able to handle this workload.
It's some kind of "fear" of the "big clubs' football" that we (still) might have in Freiburg.
And this video really puts all of this fear together. Really great work, and THANK YOU @COPA90Stories for depicting the feelings we all have for our small SCF! ⚫🔴
One of the best series. I love this series. Even I cried when they lost even though I already now the result. Whaat a great story teller Copa90. Forever will be your fan!
this doco is by far my favourite, absolutely unreal story. a club doing things the right way for the city and its fans and they're doing really well in the bundesliga too so i hope they achieve cup success soon. my favourite german team now without a doubt
Please try to do this series again with whatever storylines you can manage this season because these videos were amazing!
Probably the most important docu anyone has made on the situation of modern football. As a former fan and enthusiast from Hamburg I have completely turned my back to football, hardly watching anything for years now. Football is such a corrupt money driven industry (yes, I said industry, a word that shouldn't be mentioned in one sentence with football, yet here we are) it has got nothing to do with the average fan and it's not even about fun anymore. A club like Freiburg is a rarety and a jewel and reflects what football should be about. But I am sorry to say that this is a relict of the past that never comes back.
At this moment September 6 2022
Sc Freiberg is at the top of the bundesliga table in number one position!
I have great respect for clubs/fans like sc freiburg, fc wimbledon, Sheffield FC, etc.
Ich bin seit über 30 Jahren Fan des SC Freiburg, ich finde diese Doku so was von fantastisch, vor allem Manuel und Helen, zwei ganz tolle Menschen. Alles Liebe und viel Gesundheit an alle Fans und Angestellten vom SC Freiburg, ich weis nicht ob ich es gut finde wie es gerade steht in der Tabelle, aber irgendwie freut mich das ungeheuerlich, was der Verein dieses Jahr geleistet hat, da hätten Sie es verdient nicht nur die Mannschaft des Jahres, sondern der Verein des Jahres zu werden.
that was the most beautiful video about our club that i have ever seen. all the peculiarities of football as it should be worked out. all the differences to a pay to win club like leipzig pointed out. thanks for that. the true cup winner. never give up. no power to the corporations.
Is this why Klopp is such a humanist, Are all people from the Black Forrest like this? What a club!
A thoroughly researched and well put-together documentary about my favourite club, thank you so much for bringing SC Freiburg's story to an international audience. I was very lucky to be in the Dreisamstadion in the early 90s when they played their last home game before being promoted to the Bundesliga for the first time - scoring goals 96 to 100 of that season - the atmosphere was electric. It was the Breisgau Brasilianers' rise in a stadium where the pitch was too short and trees around it were often used by fans to get a better view. That they have kept decent values in a world of ever-more money and bullying is a testimony to their management and fans. And to the players who come here and realise what a unique place it is to belong to. Nur der SCF
Didn't know ur club story.. Which is amazing, I'm speechless they way Freiburg fans love their club. From today u have one more supporter, regards from Sevilla, more known as Real Betis city. BTW, thx Copa 90,what you are doing for football is remarcable.. I hope one day we all could enjoy a real and emocional football without artificial teams like Leipzig or psg
And I started to support Betis thanks to the documentary. All the best from a Freiburg supporter !!
I work in Freiburg and only live 15min. from it, fan of the Sport-Club since i can think. I love the club for being himself and will always do, its so heartwarming to see some people from different countries acknowledging this region because if you grow up in this part of germany, its a bit like living in nowhere, nobody in this country knows our region, but they will know the SC Freiburg
Which is why I like watching Bundesliga - I went to Germany in 2015 and caught 32 games across 21 cities, and I think every game the fans make it feel that the club belongs to them.
You did a great thing.
Big club with business minded never understand their fans, that the reason why we love small club... Even my local club didn't win anything after 11 years & only had 4 trophies in club history, but for the love & passion we still support the team
I have loved every episode in this series. I relate so much more to these clubs growing up where I did in Ohio halfway between Cleveland and Columbus and being just several years removed from nearly losing a second team I loved to the greatest evil in American sports culture; the franchise model and the ability of ownership groups moving clubs to other cities in the pursuit of profit and success. I absolutely want to visit Freiburg now.
Why did I not came across these underrated documentaries? These are as good as it comes .
Freiburg have done well, they have a new stadium and doing well overall.
Being a Freiburg Fan since I can remember and of course also having been in Berlin, this Documentary brought tears to my eyes. I am so proud of my Club! 🔴⚪️ Thank you so much for telling our Story.
