Living in South Africa, I can tell you that since 2010 Luis Suarez is hated throughout the African continent.
isnt he racist too
We hate him in Nigeria as well, no support for racist players
Amen
Right
Facts.
@@bababababababa6124 That's not so clear cut; as far as I'm aware there was only one incident (Evra) which was somewhat ambiguous. There were no other people who heard or saw the incident first hand and there was not a clear camera angle on him when it supposedly happened. He was essentially punished because there was no proof he didn't do it rather than any real proof he did.
There's also the possibility of a lost in translation cultural thing which was later claimed by people (similar to the Cavani instagram incident) but I'm not sure that was the case given what was allegedly said.
There's plenty of reasons to dislike or even hate Suarez but there's very little evidence to support the "he IS a racist" claim even were the Evra incident to have happened in the way it was claimed
Suarez is not really hated in Ghana. We just don't like what he did. We rather expected Asamoah Gyan to score the penalty. Unlucky
My Guy Suarez broke the whole of Africa's heart ....hated by the whole continent
I feel like that makes the most sense because if Gyan scored the penalty no one would remember what Suarez did
@@kennethdzengedza8978 But are you saying you wouldn't do the same. Because I'm sure I would
No seriously even nana akufu addo hates him
I mean he very much is. Pretty sure his mere existence in the country is grounds for trial
I’m so glad you included Robben, as a Mexican Bayern supporter no single human being has ever made me feel as conflicted as him.
It wasn’t a pen, but we should have gotten one before. The whole Robben thing is just something people get salty about cause they lost
It's so strange how Mexican supporters are furious about his dramatic fall in the 90th minute after being lightly fouled by Marquez, but never talk about the much clearer foul on Robben in the 45th minute of the first half where he didn't get a penalty despite being fouled by two Mexican defenders.
Even if you say it wasn't a penalty in the 90th minute, at the very least you have to admit that it's balanced out by him not getting a penalty in the 45th minute.
@@Vliegedebroodrooster It was a very light touch, but Marquez stepped on his foot, which was the foot he was just going to lift. The main criticism I have of Robben is his overly dramatic fall, but I don't think any VAR would have overturned the decision.
that’s so me! i’m mexican too and i love bayern but damn that robben….
NO ERA PENAL WEY
@@frankvandorp2059 Exactly!! But every time people mention that clear penalty in the comments, the Mexican supporters just ignore it. Most of them are just very salty

And now we have Switzerland v Serbia & Ghana v Uruguay on the final day of the World Cup 2022 group stage...
No, it's Brazil not Uruguay, Brazil is facing Switzerland and Serbia again (2018 last time) and Ghana again (2006 last time I believe)
@@maseluss I meant the final day of the group stage will have Ghana v Uruguay in Group H and later that same day, Switzerland v Serbia in Group G
regarding the Henri Handball incident, the playoff was supposed to have an unseeded draw but that was changed to a seeded draw when france failed to make the tournament.
Head of EUFA at the time Michel Platini.
Coincidence? I think not.
Also, the deserved the disgrace they had at the world cup.
Regarding France and FIFA..... France has been bombing Mali for over two years, yet FIFA hasn't banned France from FIFA competitions as they did to Russia.
@@juanjoseph Shh! We don't talk about acts of aggression from the popular countries.
It was unreal how they were able to change that literally before the play offs. Seeding the top teams was an absolute disgrace seeing as it was never done before that
I'd blame the ref not thr player
@@mikedon5205 Neither the Referee nor the player in question had anything to do with UEFA's action regarding the changing of the draw from non seeded to seeded.
I think every footballer would have stopped that ball like Suarez did
No they wouldn't, only cheating pricks like Suarez
21:26 Even the other Uruguayan player in front of Suarez tried stopping the ball with his hand too 😂😂😂
@@LuigiLuigi728 ive been saying this since 2010, people are either fool or blatantly blind
Day 17: Considering that the last player who played in the miracle of Bern died about 5 months ago, I would really like to see a video about the whole story between Germany and Hungary, especially because it meant so much to at least the German population
Bump
agreed, the story of Fritz Walter was really something quite special
It also meant a lot to the Hungarians. Not in a positive way though but still.
Germany and Hungary 15 years earlier:
Today we rule Europe! Tomorrow the entire world!
not how they expected tho
Aye, and include the use of 'Panzer Chocolate' by the West German team
I'd like to add that Luis Suarez is also hated in the People's Republic of Norfolk, an independent nation that exists in my head.
Alan Partridge can't stand him.
@@HPLovecraftsCat87 No way Partridge a canary, probably just pretends to support whichever team is top of the PL
Oh god this got me, well done!
Unreal comment
As a staunch Norwich City fan I agree fully, Luis Suarez is definitely hated by all supporters of the People's Republic of Norfolk capitals club side, and btw, the People's Republic of Norfolk also exists in my head too 🤣
Marco Materazzi in France; not at the level it was a couple of years ago, but the memory of Materazzi baiting Zidane (whether we believe Zizou should’ve been smarter) into head butting him and getting red carded, still irritates a few French fans, not only because of the eventual loss, but also because it was Zizou’s last match with Les Bleus.
Yeah that one still hurts, but to be completely honest with ourselves, Materazzi being the recipient of our hatred is us being dishonest and looking for anyone to blame but Zizou. Trash talking has always been part of the game, having our hero headbutt an opponent was shameful and seriously broke the heart of so many of us, especially kids like me at the time who just couldn't understand it, therefore Materazzi's name is synonymous of shame and nobody likes to feel shame so we do blame him, somewhat unjustly as if he was responsible for all of it. Seeing Zizou's career end on that note, with him walking off the pitch beside the world which he was about to gift us almost single-handedly was heartbreaking. Good shout.
@@kattharsismic I always cringe when French people blame Materazzi. Yes he is an asshole for what he may have said, but Zidane as a seasoned veteran and one of the most prolific players of all time should've known better than that and kept a cool head, not to mention words never justify assault like that it was just dumb
@@dd867 I completely agree with you, but Zizou has had a history of going berserk throughout his career, still, as irrational as it is, French people are going to hate Materazzi forever I'm afraid.
@@kattharsismic I would say french hated herald schamacker more after his misdeeds in 1982 wc semis.
@@kattharsismic the french aren't as upset like England their first final in 55 year's with only one world cup and Italy defeated them on penalties on English soil at least France has 4 trophies 2 world cups and 2 euro cups
Maybe a video about players who transferred just after signing a new contract would be cool. Great video as always
*cough cough* Xherdan Shaqiri
I'd like to see that
Getting those 5 countries with “and” in their name is perhaps my greatest life achievement to date. Thank you Alfie for this opportunity.
Me too 😂
Well done. I got desperate and included ANDorra, RwANDa and UgANDa in my list. Although I still think the UK of GB AND Northern Ireland should count.
I got 4. Forgot St Vincent and the Grenadines
I got ten:
The United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland, Iceland, Uganda, Rwanda, Rwanda, Finland, New Zealand, Marshall Islands, Ireland & Switzerland.
This isn't cheating, as this list was written by the hand of god.
Being from Trinidad and Tobago it's easy for me when you look at where many of them are. Lol
Fabio Grosso in Australia ... although I imagine that bloke might be hated elsewhere also
I don't hate Fabio Grosso. I hate Kevin Muscat
I have a player that should have at least made it to the honorary mentions : Mario Yépes in Cameroon. I am cameroonian, and for those who do not know, during the 2003 international cup, one of our players, Marc Vivien Foé (played at City and West Ham btw) sadly lost his life on pitch during the semis against Colombia. He collapsed after a contact with Yépes and although the intent was obviously not to hurt, let alone kill his opponent, Yépes is till this day genuinely labelled a murderer by the old heads of a whole country, 20years later. I was too young to witness it myself, but since then I saw how much he is hated in the country. People wished death upon him anytime we saw Colombia play at a WC since
I thought Foe collapsed on his own because of a heart condition or something
@@rohithraman6488 It was right after a contact with Yepes. He of course did have a heart condition, knew about it but allegedly decided to play in spite of it and get treatment after the competition. Such a sad turn of events.
Lies again? F**king Hell
Luis Suarez is a very Polarising Fella to say the Least ……. ⚽️
He is quite the player to sink your teeth into
@@hoze1235 aint that the tooth
I am a Ghanaian but I don't think Suarez is that hated in Ghana as a matter of fact there are people in Ghana who are Barcelona fans who love him but maybe hold a little grudge against him most Ghanaians blame Asamoah Gyan for the loss rather than Suarez
Personally I think you can blame the rules of football. In other sports such as rugby, if you stop a certain goal (or try in rugby) the referee is allowed to immediately reward a goal. This would be very rare in football as a goal is usually not guaranteed but this is one of the few cases where I think it would be beneficial to give the referee this power.
I'm not Ghanaian, so I have no dog in the fight and I know that no one can account for the feelings of many people in a nation, but I really think that is very unfair to Gyan, he was absolutley immense in that tournament and should be rightly celebrated as a Ghanaian football hero in my opinion. Having said that I'm Irish and many people here still hate Roy Keane for leaving the world cup in 2002, despite dragging us there not single handed, but close to it.
And Italy has to hate him because of Chiellini
that's nice to hear...
Suarez hand has been already settled with the Red Card. That's the punishment for the foul he committed.
He didn't break any rule.
Unfortunately Gyan who had been incredible during the tournament failed to score.
But all that is rightfully kept between Football rules.
A different story would have been if the referee didn't show Suarez a red card...
and still in that situation the person to blame would have been the refferee.
@@VictorMurp You can definitely blame the rules of football, since it never should have been a free kick to begin with. The Ghana player literally dived, no contact, to win the free kick that led to it.
It's a bit of an oldie, but nobody in Spain has yet forgiven Mauro Tassotti for breaking Luís Enrique's nose in the USA 94 QF that pitched Spain against Italy.
That was back when Italy was a bunch of thugs and every game seemed to finish 1-0.
Denmark will never forget Bakero in 1993
Not as old as Diego's and way worse because of the cheating and the refree becaming an ostrich.
You forgot Nabil fekir he is the most hated footballer in his country of origin Algeria after he took advantage of the Algerian football federation
It‘s a top 7 mate, he can‘t include everyone
@@thecurdy ik but the ones he mentioned were mostly hated for eliminating the other nation one way or another which isn't that much interesting, and in my opinion the fekir case doesn't get enough highlight
@@oussama1811 What did he do?
@@robhernandez5520 back in 2015 after 2 years of negotiations between him and the Algerian federation, it was officially announced that Nabil fekir will play for Algeria, fekir was a promising youngster and was expected for the next NT list, anyway few days later before the international break out of nowhere fekir changed his mind and announced that he is playing for France and people went confused, the next day the French NT list was announced and fekir was in it,
it turned out that fekir only gave his acceptance to the Algerian federation so the French federation would notice him and make a move for him which worked out for him, the FFF contacted him and guaranteed him that he will be in the next NT list and he accepted their offer, he had no shame or remorse for playing with Algerians feelings, what took us 2 years of negotiations France finished in few of calls within couple of days, Algeria meant nothing to him but a pressure card at the end

But I’m bitter because I thought Turks and Caicos counted as a nation
Also the Marshall Islands and the Solomon Islands
Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda, Sao Tome and Principe, and Bosnia and Herzegovina
England, Scotland and Northern Ireland aren't countries.
The country is The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland - which does have an "and" in it....
@@seemymobot4987 they are countries, i believe you are confusing countries with states

Irish guy: "CHRIST ABOVE"
Jasus christ, if you gonna slag us, do your homework
I've been watching almost every video of this channel for the past 3 to 4 years. From the first 7 greatest ... of all time series and 7 best pl players of all time to recent documentaries. As you pointed out youself in one of your recent videos, your style of speaking and the quality of your audio has changed a lot and I approve and enjoy that a lot.
With that being said, the videos have reached a length that I don't consider enjoyable anymore at times. Youre earlierst videos were about 5 min long and over the years they gradually became longer which is fine. But a 23 min video for a top 7 is just not the extend I am enjoying. Of course this is your channel and I dont know how other viewers fell about this change, but I much prefered videos around 10-15 min length for the usual top 7 and only documentaries in this length.
Nonetheless still a big fan of your video style and my favorite football channel on yt:)
there is also Ahn Jung Hwan korean player hated by entire Italy... At that time he was playing for Perugia in the Italian Serie A, and the harassment and hatred he suffered was such that he had to flee that country.
Ye because they cheated
I’m not from Ghana/Africa and I still haven’t forgiven Suarez
I’m from Ghana, I can strictly tell you that we hate him to the bone. It’s ironic we playing em in Qatar
@@DawnKing Ghana got their revenge, 12 years in the waiting
@@dripkidd8572 not really tbh, lost 0-2 and referee didn’t give very obv penalties to uruguay
As a person from the Caribbean ethnically, the ‘AND’ challenge was pretty easy 😅
Both my parents from Trinidad and they've barely ever mentioned anything about Tobago. Actually none of my relatives or people that come over from there ever mention Tobago. Its almost like it is in fact a different country to them at least lol
Same!
He forgot one though and it’s his own country. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
you forgot to mention Saurez's celebrations after the missed penalty !!!!
heerhh that celebration. Hmmm
At a lower level, for a second list, Tussuf Poulsen in Peru shoud be included. Despite qualifying for a World Cup after 36 years, in the first game of Russia 2018 the peruvians were already "by logic" disqualified when Poulsen led Denmark to a narrow victory against the south American. In Peru, you here "Poulsen", and you have a headache for the rest of the week.
We are more angry at Cueva for missing the penalty
Ehh.. . Not even close to dislike, most people in Peru used the phrase “Cueva choncatumadre“ which would translate to "Cueva you motherf****r" because he failed the clear penalty that would give the team the advantage during that match and that hatred for Cueva increased over the years until 2021 when it stopped mostly due the madurity showed by the player on the last two years.
Yeah this is lame
I got Antigua and Barbuda at the last second right before you announced the results and now I can claim that I got a perfect 5 out of 5 in the "Guess this answer to a pointless question that Alfie will reveal at the end of the video" lessgoo we take those
Just wanna say Alfie that I've been watching for some time, like a couple years maybe? I love where your on screen personality has developed. The dry wit is right up my alley, it's a far cry from the days you'd complain about views and your boss man.
Keep it up, dude
Great job Alfie. Would've liked to hear your breakdown about Ireland's view of Rice and Grealish. BTW, regarding nations with the word "and" in them, what about the "United Kingdom of Great Britain AND Northern Ireland"?
As a Ghanaian I can confirm that we do indeed still hate suarez and I my only personal ambition for this world cup is to see suarez in tears.
You should hate your guy that missed that penalty
Well mission accomplished.
12:10 Alfie seemed genuinely confused with himself that he’d forgotten how to count 😂😂
Suarez is surely still one of the most universally hated people in football?
I'm a united supporter and I've never been able to wholeheartedly hate Suarez simply because of how good he was.
Also whilst he is objectively pretty awful I've always seen him more as a child than an asshole. Like, when he is celebrating against Ghana after they missed their penalty, or when he is literally biting people out on the field, that seems more like a the actions of someone who is just really really dumb rather than mischievious.
@@felixbache5369 Really? Even after the Evra incident?
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 Nobody cares softie is happened, What do you say about all the people getting killed because of war, You are a softie crying about a football player when right now people are dying because of hunger, wars, shame on you’re whole familie what a joke they are for raising such a fool.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 look what happened with Cavani recently. The evra incident was stupid on Suarez' part but I'm dead certain be isn't racist or intended anything racist
Yes. No lone likes Chompie McBitesalot.
As an Irishman, I have to disagree that Rice is hated in Ireland. It's all largely been forgotten about now. We have good young players who would go through walls for the Irish jersey now and that, for me, and a lot of other Irish fans is more important.
Thierry Henry is still public enemy #1 in Ireland. It was him going on the big screen in the Aviva that spurred Ireland onto a good result against Belgium.
Of course Thierry Henry, Rice,Grealish, R. (Bloody) Kean are still heated in Ireland. Why would you forgive turn coats. & Handball cheats. Are you ready an Irish man.
@@michaelpower4372 I'm not forgiving a handball cheat (read my comment again). I do take issue with calling Rice and Grealish turncoats. They left having never played a competitive game for us. We didn't develop them. They didn't come from Richmond Park or Tallaght Stadium so there's no loss to us.
@@DarrenBates It dose not matter they still turned there backs on Ireland so there are turn coats. If they weren't poached by them. They would have played for the senior irish team. But when they showed interest they were gone in a flash.
There is also the hatred of Ramos in Egypt after he broke Salah's shoulder
Outstanding video bro one of your best!
Teared up when you ended the segment on Maradonna. Fair play Mr Harmer
Shaqiri and Xhaka were also bood by the Kosovo fans in a recent friendly, I can only assume because they decided to not represent them or Albania
That game against Serbia was so fucking funny, I lost it when Lichtsteiner did the double headed eagle as well lmao. And we're playing them again in Qatar...

I remember that day like it was yesterday, Robben had a great performance, and us Mexican fans are the only ones who were affected by his acting. To this day
If you remember it so well, don't you think it was somewhat deserved because of the not given penalty in the first half, where two (!) mexican defenders fouled Robben in the box? The game would have been over with two red cards for Mexico.
This was a really good one Alfie!
And I had almost all the countries right, but I’d forgotten that Turks and Caicos wasn’t independent
might be a bit of a longshot, but what about "7 obscure clubs who might be the next rags to riches story".
when you mentioned "bohemian", i thought of Prague's Bohemians FC, & the rumours I heard that they were in the sights of an Australian conglomerate to purchase the club & try & elevate it into a team that was capable of trying to get some sort of foothold in European football ... Given the longstanding trend of purchase & massive cash injection into lower tier / underachieving English clubs, one wonders how many 'off the radar' instances in other lower European & possibly South American leagues might make for interesting stories? ...
Good to get an Aussie mention on the channel. Muscat helped cement my love of Western Sydney Wanderers when ALL my mates love Victory.
12:07 classic. 🤣 Love your work man- just keep going. It adds to the flavour.
I'd love to see a list like this about players hated in THEIR OWN countries. I was disappointed to not see guys like Chris Wandalowski in the US or Rob Green in England for their monumental mistakes in similar world cup matches
The first easy inclusion is Harald Schumacher in France
Toni Schumacher! No one calls him Harald
Fun Fact about Robben: when Max Verstappen won the F1 Championship, there was a dutch sports TV Show that embraced and admitted the #NoEraPenal as a sign of respect for Sergio Perez regarding his role in the last races of the season and even invited Mariachis to play live.
It was clearly a penalty though. Also, the Netherlands would have most likely scored the winning goal anyway, they were much better.
@@wilhelmdietz4023 That's never a penalty in a top league, contact was not concrete and barely touched the shoes, also keep in mind that was in Robben's diving peak, not even referees were buying that in Bundesliga. Also yes, The Netherlands was a much better team than Mexico, no doubt about it, yet they were also a much better team against Costa Rica and they went all the way to penalties, that's football, you can be better but if you don't score you don't win, and Van Gaal was all about ball control and not so good goal scoring (as a Man Utd fan I perfectly know his style), so your argument of them being better and thus having it garuanteed to win is beyond stupid my friend, no offense, football doesn't work like that, and Van Gaal's Netherlands team lacked goal conversion (although they had a legit bid to become world champions, unlike us).
Brilliant videos
Congratulations on yet another brilliant piece of work Alfie the part about maradona rang very true as an England fan it always seemed like we were robbed in 86 but as you said just imagine if shiltpn had jumped even a little bit!!! Oh what might have been......!!!
You forgot the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland if we're using formal names
No. That's not a country.
@@martinmcwilliams it's quite literally a UN recognised country
@@Gallalad1 different countries different flags different leaders
@@KingChaddi but yet they are under a single authority, single monarch, have a single foreign policy and are legally one singular country called the UK. They are recognised as such by every major international organisation of political importance. This includes the UN, the EU, WTO and IMF.
If you doubt me I challenge you to find an example of where England (currently) as a single nation is a party to a treaty. Show me where Scotland or NI have their nameplates in the UN general assembly. If they were a country (by the international legal definition) then they'd have one. The UK's constituant nations are more like US states which also have different flags and different leaders.
There is one more country whith "and" in its name, not a very particularly well known one, but you might have heard of it: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
true but nobody calls it that when speaking about the UK
Northern Ireland is in UK
would love to see top 7 clubs with the most captains. for example spurs has kane son lloris who are captains for their international team
It’s crazy that Stewart downing had caps for the national team
I like all the respective countries daily and ever in this world and other planets and on behalf of France legend Thierry Henry sir,I am extremely so sorry for the nation of Republic Of Ireland for the massive controversy which made us to be qualified for the 2010 FIFA World Cup which we were rightfully backfired in the group stage itself of the tournament,good friends!!!🙏
For years, the Irish (and the other Celtic nations for that matter) mocked England with Maradona’s Hand Of God goal. So I do find the Hand Of Henry particularly amusing.
Serves then bloody well right.

Uganda and Rwanda as well!
everyone who isn't a Melbourne victory fan hates Kevin Muscat except for when he played for Australia that's when everyone loved him. in my opinion.
Great shout, he's about the nastiest b'tard I've ever seen in 40+ years of avidly following football. I think there was another really nasty fullback (who was possibly an Aussie too!) around the same time.

Was at the Trinidad game when Crouch starred. We went to the friendly also in 2008 and he was really hated.
Why was Crouch so hated?
@@michaelahern6821 Alfie sort of explains it in the video. But the T&T fans we spoke with hated that Crouch had pulled on the defenders dreadlocks/hair. They felt that was really unfair.
@@archstanton6102 OK thanks for that.. thought it would be impossible to hate him ..he's such a likeable fella..
@@michaelahern6821 He is now.
Fabio Grosso in Australia.
For my country I'd probably have to go with Michael Bradley (yes, an American as well). As captain, he was made the scapegoat of the USMNT failing to qualify for the 2018 World Cup, especially as he appeared to display minimal effort during the infamous loss to T&T, and during most of his away MLS matches held in the US that year, he was booed at every touch of the ball. Sometimes he still gets booed even today, though the grudge is finally seeming to be loosening now that we've qualified for 2022.
Your entire team was to blame when you guys lost to our B team. Bradley, the entire team, and especially the coach insulted the nation in the lead up, and well karma is a bitch
The Albanian and Kosovo flags on Shaqiri's boots were talked about as the opposite were on screen. A bit confusing :)
Technically any country ending in the prefix "land", has an and in its name
What do you mean, I love Kevin Muscat i guess that might be because i am a Victory Fan, also as a Australian i can say most football fans from a generation hat Gennaro Gattuso for diving in the 2006 world cup round of 16. Also the only other country i know with and in it is Antigua and Barbuda which is because i like their flag and Bosnia and Herzegovina
I'm sure that all 6 Australian football fans absolute hate Gattuso
Part 2 please
Without Google or the vid:
1. TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO
2. São Tomé and Príncipe
3. St. Kitts and Nevis
4. St. Vincent and the Grenadines
5. Bosnia and Herzegovina
6. Antigua and Barbuda
The nations I know with and in it
Trinidad and Tabago
Saint Kitts and Nevis
The french and south antarctic terratorries (not sure if counted)
Bosnia and Herzegovenia
Antigua and barbuda
St Vincent and the grenadines
Edit: yep Terratorries dont count forget Sao Tome Principe
I am a Trinidadian I have forgiven Crouchy ages ago. Funny enough I like him more than Brent for reasons I wouldn't go into.
much love from Trinidad and Tobago🇹🇹
Do a video on footballers how have played for a different national team instead of there own
There's another complicating factor that played a part not just in the reason why Maradona was so hated in England, but also the national rivalries between England (in particular, though the UK more accurately) and Argentina in a football context. The "Hand of God" goal occurred in 1986, just 4 years after the Falklands War was fought between Britain and Argentina over the disputed Islands ~500 miles off Argentina's Coast. Many in Argentina at the time felt some sort of vindictive pleasure at getting one over on the English, as they were still raw with the defeat in the war in 1982.
To this day, unfortunately, the football rivalry between England and Argentina has little to do with football and more (it seems to me) an offshoot of the dispute over the Falklands
What are you on all English fans wanted them to win the world cup when we were knocked out
@Salty Spoon clearly you didn't ask ALL England fans as the ones I was around definitely did NOT want Argentina to win. One of their players slamming the ball right at the Dutch Dugout only seemed to harden their negative views of them. I guess your opinion is based on a romantic view of Mesi finally winning a World Cup?
the hatred was always there really, given that England treated south american football for the longest time as "inferior" (and held quite the racist view of us) and played a rather infamous hand in the 1966 world cup when the argentinian team captain was sent off just because "he had a mean look on his face"
add to that the declarations of the British coach calling us "animals" in lieu of the outrage and well
it was a matter of time til something triggered that dormant feeling
I managed to guess the 4 of the 5 countries with the word “and” in their name. Unfortunately I forgot the most well known country of them all (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
Maybe not so much nowadays but back during the 2014 World Cup Camilo Zuñiga was a public enemy in Brazil for injuring Neymar during the Quarter Finals match between Colombia and Brazil, ruling him out of the next match which brazil famously lost 7-1 to Germany.
Damn you Sao Tome and Principe (never expected to type that)! It was the only of the five I missed
Top 7 clubs to have competed in Europe whilst being in their national 2nd league
I am Ghanaian and I can tell you we don't hate Suarez today.
The Henry handball was so obvious and egregious.
Hey Alfie, I have an idea for a video. It might be complicated, but can we get a video explaining the lighter side of football. How about the 7 funniest moments of the Premier League or 7 moments in football which you found hilarious
Hi Alfie. Another of the blatant hand balls and a little before your time is Joe Jordan in Cardiff against Wales. He totally hoodwinked the ref.
Day 252: Indonesia XI If All Eligible Players Had Declared For Them.
Irrelevant
Most dry video idea ever.
Keep dreaming bocah
Up gan
@stop UFO fakes it only draws south east Asia people only
alfie is so funny and his videos are getting better
I remembered Thierry Henry handball against Republic of Ireland by Steve Irungu Jermaine
As a Mexican, I am very happy that you included Robben, it really disappoints me because I really liked him as a player but that day made me loose all respect I had for him.
Only that Robben should have had a penalty in the first half and that the penalty called in the 2nd half was the right call. He embellished but the defender clearly stepped on his foot.
Ramos is pretty hated in Egypt for his foul on Salah in the champions League final
Saint Kitts and nevvis, São Tomé and Príncipe, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, idk the rest, but pleas make a top 7 football clubs older than the country they are from.
I only just realised the channel is called hitc sevens because they make top 7 videos
Grosso is despised by Australia
Suarez ONLY hated in Ghana...okaaay
..;)
This channel is close to taking over hitc sport now
Hey! Could you put your thoughts on Luis Diaz in a video? Cheers!
He’s really good.
Shout out Saint Kitts & Nevis I know most people missed that one 🇰🇳 🇰🇳
Only one I didn't get 😥
Many players, with the gift of being able to beat players on the run, dived or exaggerated their falls. Their justification was that they spent their entire careers being kicked and elbowed, very often without sufficient protection from the referee. Simulation is simply pay back. If the refereeing was better, it wouldn't ever have been a thing. Protection is much better today than it was 20 years ago but I have sympathy for the 'divers.' I know that most players who have played to a decent standard do too. We're just not allowed to say so.
As a subscriber from Trinidad and Tobago I'd say that you're pretty on the nose about Crouch. The 2006 World Cup was 16 years ago and people still have some resentment for his hair pulling antics
For real.I remembered after that incident that some people would make a Peter Crouch bobolee the following year when it was Easter.
Fun Fact: In Ligue 1, Nice isn't been champions since *64* years.
If you ever do a sequel to this video I'd recommend Francesco Totti and Australia. Most people in Australia don't regularly follow football, preferring our own codes but they will still tell you he didn't deserve that penalty
U r wrong on many accounts!!!
Firstly quite a large number of people in Australia follow it actually!
Secondly no one disliked totti, it would he fabio grosso who was actually the one what dived!
Didn't say that no one does, I said that most don't. Of course lots of people do or else I wouldn't be here watching videos on it would I?
@@logancosta3110 yes I realise that and im saying you are wrong and most do
Carry on!
@@joehunt390 its not even worth comparing the attendance at AFL/cricket to a-league or even international games. It's not in the same ballpark. Even NRL outsells the A-League
@@logancosta3110 not talking about following the domestic game mate!
There numerous people that follow European football and don't follow a league or people that prefer old nsl clubs and don't follow aleague that follow European football!
As for national team, atm even if they played a game in my home city I wouldn't go because of both the terrible form and the person in charge!
On any given day walking through the mall etc more likely to see someone in a football jersey or some sort of football gear than nrl or afl!
