Sports management
Directions
For this assignment you should view the posted video from Vice Sports: Soccer’s Most Violent Rivalry– a short form video about the dynamics and danger of The Eternal Derby, between two professional football clubs in Serbia.
For your discussion, you are to look for a rivalry (a ‘derby’ in global football terms) that we may not know as well as Celtic and Rangers, or Manchester United v Manchester City, for example. For this assignment, you will have to look OUTSIDE the Top 5 European Leagues of Football (below) and give a brief description of the rivalry over the last two or three decades.
******Top 5 European Leagues of Football -see below (can not use any teams currently connected to these leagues–for example, Tottenham v Arsenal, etc.) In England for example, you would need to find clubs in the Championship (or lower), or find teams that have been in the top flight, but have dropped out in recent time (at least 3 years out of the top flight in their country).
English Premier League (EPL)
Bundesliga (Germany)
Spanish La Liga
Italy Serie A
France Ligue 1
- Be sure to include:
- Who are the clubs and where are they from (country/city/local, etc.)?
- What is the clubs significance to football in that region/location, as well as their connection to the community?
- Other than ‘football’, is there ‘something’ to this rivalry, from a cultural (or other) perspective? Describe what that is. Be specific.
- How has this rivalry ‘transformed’ over the last two or three decades? Has one club won more, or has something changed from prior to that time?
Have there been any significant ”incidents” which have defined, or even ‘marred’ the rivalry? If so, what/when, etc.
What does this rivalry mean to that local area?
- Note: You may NOT select the following rivalries:
- Celtic vs Rangers
- The Eternal Derby
- Look for interesting stories, but also focus on the football. Be sure also to include the social/history/anthropology elements of this derby.
- Initial/Original Post
- Please post what you view as the appropriate responses to the above prompts. You must justify your answer. Your initial post must be 250-300 words. Your post must have a clear, well-formulated thesis; sentence structure, grammar, punctuation, and spelling count.
