I’m attending a home game today with a couple of colleagues. Looking forward to seeing them smash Leuven. Visiting from the UK and love the people, lifestyle and scenery.
There will be probably no Mechelen derby in the near future. So I visit KV Mechelen and Racing Mechelen in their respective leagues. Beautiful old town, awesome grounds and great fans 👍!
Minor quibble ... the last derby was on the 3ed of April 2005 ... juuuuuuuust shy of 20 years ago. The game was interrupted due to fan violence instigated by the Racing fans and the game was eventually forfeited 0-5. There was a "sort of" derby in 2022 between the Racing A-team and KV youth squad as the youth squads of top flight teams are now playing in lower divisions. The closest we've come to an actual derby was in the 2008-09 cup. KV and Racing both made it to the quarter finals, but Racing got drawn against Lierse and got eliminated.
Well it isn’t the ‘real’ derby when you have the KV youth teams competing against the first team of Racing Mechelen. I really hope there will be a meeting in the cup in the near future. The whole city would have an electric atmosphere then, I think. I visited 2 weeks ago the Antwerp derby… (check our latest video) but this one will just as intense maybe more because of the surpressed emotions of the past 20 years.
I really liked the video! Great work Budi👊🏼 greetings from a KV Mechelen fan💛❤️

It would be great to see Racing Mechelen and Berchem Sport get promoted. Proper cult clubs with room for development and potential.
Pretty good your English, vocabulary and pronunciation. Do work a bit on your grammar
My pronunciation? I thought that was the worse! 😂
@@Rivalriesaroundtheworld it's pretty decent really, but grammar mistakes at the beginning of the video were avoidable
