🇬🇧BRIT Reacts To HELL IS REAL MLS DERBY - COLUMBUS CREW SC VS FC CINCINNATI 

There’s a part 2 to the same documentary that shows the second match at Cincinnati you should check it out too. But thank you for checking out our Hell is Real Derby!!! Much love from Columbus 💛🖤

As someone from Cincinnati and goes to most of their home matches. The Hell is Real Darby is like nothing else in person.

Both of these clubs opened a brand new state of the art stadium this season

I’ve seen that sign driving bye there before iconic

Ohio native here and FC Cincinnati fan, every rivalry here is a big one because we have nothing else to do here lol

I love Kabir's appreciation for American football (soccer) and his appreciation and fascination with American culture. It's really refreshing.

Keep that MLS content coming my dude! Maybe a best goals reaction vid?

A little fun fact about MLS that they didn't touch on too much in this is the Wooden Spoon. It's a fan-made trophy given in jest to the last-placed team each season. (Currently held by FC Cincinnati, ironically, from the 2019 season. It was not awarded after last season.) After 2017, it was given the official name of the Anthony Precourt Memorial Wooden Spoon. It is named after the, undoubtedly, most hated man in American soccer, owner of Austin FC and former owner of Columbus Crew from whom the team had to be saved.

Kabir Welcome to Ohio, peoples who care and fight for what they believe in. Ohio willing love sport teams.

They had a game recently where Cincinnati went up 2 goals and the crew came back and tied it with 10 men. As a crew supporter and someone who lives halfway between Columbus and Cincinnati I can definitely say this rivalry is going to be a fun one for years to come

I love that 2015-2018 team - Zardes, Williams, Trapp, Steffan, Afful, Mensah, Higuain, so many great passionate players. Not just great soccer players, but the sort of men that any community would be proud to have as leaders. Berhalter leading from the sidelines, with the USMNT job already lined up but refusing to leave a club that was struggling.

I really appreciate your enthusiasm for MLS. Rivalries will only help it grow. Personally I support Sporting KC. I can't wait for St. Louis City SC to start play in a couple of seasons so we can have a regional rival.

Ohio native and proud! We love our teams so much.

I already loved your channel but now that you've reacted to my favorite team. The Columbus Crew I love your stuff even more! Thank you!

The US Open Cup is our version of the FA Cup. FC Cincinnati was a USL team which is our second division and they beat a MLS team Columbus. In case you didn't get that part.

I can verify that the people here in Columbus love the Crew.

I’m from Cincinnati and you’re the GOAT for making this

Love seeing content for the first time through your reactions. Even though I’m American I only see stuff relating to the south of the country where I’m from.

Not sure if you can see it in the UK, but the first HiR Derby at Columbus’s new ground is on 27 August, and the atmosphere is even more intense now than ever!

Thanks man for not being the stereotypical Euro footy snob. I was raised an Evertonian then moved to US and have watched the MLS grow. There have been many many cringey moments but the league is now stable, roots firmly planted and now the organic history is being created, leaving the plastic marketing gimmicks (which were necessary) behind. Just imagine what English football may have been like in the early 1900s...

The owner of the Crew eventually got his team in Austin FC this year, but is the most hated person of all Crew fans. Not just hated, but a strong hate at that

the last version of the derby this past weekend was a good one as well, left footed rocket a minute into the game

I live in Cincy, love love love this rivalry. I got FC Cincinnati my sister and brother in law are Columbus Crew supporters........ on game day there's no conversation, other than lots of swear words and eye rolling, LOL LOL

Dude. This city is electric right now. The Bengals (NFL) have been to a Superbowl and back to back AFC Championships the last two years, FC Cincinnati is on top of the league and on a win streak, and the Reds(MLB) are in first place in their division and on an 11 game win streak.

Now you should get highlights of the "Hell Is Real" Eastern Conference Championship. That was a game.

Shout out from cincinnati was not expecting to see my club on one of your videos!

This is one of the most organic rivalries in MLS and has is steadly growing into a great match ups to watch. Keep up the good work. COYG!! 🔴⚪

There are a lot of.clubs that have been around a while, just new to MLS. Cincinnati was one of them.

Please, please, please react to the canadian classique. It is a huge rivalry in the mls, but it is between two of the three Canadian teams, Montreal vs Toronto. It is in many people's top 5 list of derbies in the MLS, but i think its slept on too much. and as a brit, you seem like a good person to react to it.

MLS is Growing Rapidly Open your eyes people 😊

You say people build their lives around clubs, well I uprooted mine for my club. Moved from Cleveland to Columbus this year to be closer to Columbus Crew. You should check out highlights from the recent Hell is Real derby. Another insane comeback done by the Crew in FCC's stadium

I'm a D.C. United supporter. The D.C. United vs Red Bull NY(Formerly NY/NJ Metrostars, and just Metrostars) is the original rivalry in the league. They have been enemies since the league opened in 1996. I React to that one!!

Columbus almost lost their team and the MLS never wanted Cincinnati to have a team. Both stories were driven by amazing fan support and proud Ohio business leaders. Cincinnati was averaging 26,000 fans in the lower league - and the march to the match became legendary. And there were no stronger advocates in the Save the Crew movement than Cincinnati supporters.

Soccer has been so popular in the Seattle area since the 70s . Since that time they have stolen 2 teams from Seattle. milwaukee stole the Baseball Team Pilots to become the brewers and then oklahoma city stole the Seattle SuperSonic NBA team. Seattle drafted Durant not ok. Sued to get baseball back now we have Hockey so let the NBA crawl back.

I remember watching that game. The 2-2 finish was really the most fitting outcome given that both teams were kicking around the bottom of the table. It's a shame Cincinnati has lost a lot of momentum, but those early days (especially during #SaveTheCrew) was awesome.

Toronto FC had a little rivalry with Orlando City this season because due to COVID travel restrictions, all Canadian teams had to use US stadiums so TFC played in Orlando's stadium (Exploria Stadium). We didnt like that too much and the Toronto FC Twitter account would start fanning the flames by puting pictures and cartoons of players repainting OUR stadium red. Well we beat them TWICE and to rub salt in it, they are last place in the Eastern Conference AND they are going to be playing back in Canada on Saturday cause they can't handle us! #VamosOrlando #FloridaIsPurple

Northeast Ohio so different than the rest of Ohio

Both teams just built brand new soccer only stadiums and Columbus was the first team to build a soccer only stadium in the league Also the US Open Cup is the same as the FA Cup for us and the Wooden spoon is unofficial award given to the worst team in MLS by other teams

You should check out the video of every MLS Goal of the Year. Some absolute wondergoals in there.

If you want to see crowd intensity, that is just nuts watch any video of Atlanta United FC when they are playing at home, the fans May split into groups but those groups support the team and each other in a way you very rarely see in professional soccer so far..... It's loud, crazy wonderful and beautiful all at once

Good stuff, Kabir.

Great Video React Thank you 😊

As a Columbus native and crew fan we don’t see Cincinnati as a rivalry since it was forced by the mls there is more of a rivalry between the crew and Toronto fc or Chicago than Cincinnati since they can’t leave last place on the tables

Now this rivalry is in the semifinals of the MLS playoffs this Saturday! I’d love for you to do a reaction video for the highlights

You really should look at the Portland Timbers vs Seattle Sounders video. A rival that has history and fights and everything. Easily one of if not the best rivalry in MLS

Cant wait for the next meeting between FCC and Crew. Cincy is coming out on top this time.

We definitely love our sports in Ohio mainly Cincinnati and Cleveland.

We are a very passionate fan base. If you're ever in Columbus on a game day stop by our tailgate in the north lot.

Great review and commentary! Welcome to Ohio! American Football is super popular here in the State but there’s a growing number of Soccer Football fans! A rivalry like this will definitely add some positive attention! Go Crew! 🖤💛

Great video. Glory to Columbus! Also, one more thing. I understand what it probably feels like for you watching soccer grow in America, because I'm watching my favorite sport, (ice) hockey grow in Britain. Albeit much slower than soccer in America

The Columbus Crew are one of the MLS's original teams. They played their first few seasons in Ohio Stadium, which seats 105,000+ people, but never came close to filling the stadium. I wonder if they might now.

As an FC Cincinnati fan thank you for not showing the next game

USL is like tier 2 of American soccer. There actually is some pretty passionate clubs even in that league. FC Cincinnati was part of the USL before joining the MLS. As you can tell soccer is bigger than just the soccer is bigger than just the MLS here in the US I'm actually Louisville newest I'm actually a Louisville city fan and that's USL team with a is USL team with a better stadium then some MLS teams

Ethan Horvath got signed by Nottingham Forrest!!!!!!!!

Aw you only saw part 1? I told you there is one with both parts together as one. Same with the LA Derby (aka El Trafico). Which btw you gotta see part 2 cause it was deja vu. Plus you must check out Copa90’s series Derby Days. Amazing series showing some of the best derbies in the world. For some reason they stopped doing em (before the pandemic even happened) when I know there’s more derbies to showcase like in Japan, India, more here in the states (they only did the Seattle-Portland rivalry). They have a playlist but it’s out of order. If you do I made a playlist of all episodes in correct order.

8:23 I don't recall, either. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Oakland_Raiders?wprov=sfla1 Oakland lost Raiders, TWICE!

Hell is real kicking off now baby! Let’s go crew!

Check out the Atlanta United FC 2018 season second year in the league and we win the cup. Atlanta is a bumping city with a diverse population and an amazing culture scene.

You should check the highlights of the Nashville Chicagoe game from July 18, 2021. Absolutely insane performance from Hany Mukhtar

Please watch Part 2! Also check out the highlights from last week's match, the first Hell Is Real in FC Cincinnati's new stadium! Game was 🔥🔥🔥

columbus barely hung on to keep a team. Cincinnati managed to grossly outdraw columbus

Im a diehard Cincinnati fan. We have been at the bottom of the table every year since our inauguration season. This year we are on our way up. For the first time in our teams MLS history we have gone 4 straight games without getting a loss. We hold the record for fewest goals score in a season, and most goals conceded in a season. Which we broke 2 seasons in a row. We know what its like to be at the bottom and claw our way up. Jaap Stam is going to lead us to glory. Lets go Orange & Blue

The Beautiful Game of All😊

My man! You should react to the eastern conference final where Crew beat FCC after being down 0-2 last week. We’re hosting the cup to win it all tomorrow against LA!!

since this video was made both Columbus and FCC have built a couple of spectacular stadiums for this rivalry

The U.S. Open Cup is our version of the FA Cup, and has been played for since 1913. Being a St. Louis sports fan, losing a team has been something we've experienced far too often. St. Louis has lost a baseball team...AL St. Louis Browns, now Baltimore Orioles; 2 NFL teams, the St. Louis football Cardinals, now the Arizona Cardinals & the St. Louis Rams, again the Los Angeles Rams; 2 basketball teams...NBA St. Louis Hawks, now Atlanta Hawks & ABA Spirits of St. Louis, no longer exists; and 1 outdoor soccer team, NASL St. Louis Stars, no longer exist.

California bought the A's, Dodgers & Giants. I bet Philly & NY were bummed, those were iconic East Coast teams. Soccer will be big here, eventually. It's an exciting game. And, sorry to hear about the UK's loss to Italy, and the aftermath. There's dollar-store douchebags everywhere. Quid-shop douchebags, even

Love the Crew! Columbus rocks, Cincatucky blows!

That was Federico Higuain playing for Columbus... brother of Gonzalo Higuain. They play together now for David Beckham at Inter Miami.

Its interesting that Ledesma sounds like such a Dutch name, but he sounds like he's from Argentina or Uruguay.

U should watch a video on the austin fc fans we’re insane✅ they call us Los verdes loco for a reason

You should watch Montreal Impact vs Toronto FC rivalries

If you go to Cincinnati you can get a ticket in the bailey witch was all the people with the drums of like 20 usd if that

Darbh? I always thought it meant another name for Bowler hat. Please explain. Inquiring minds want to know

I'm very happy for them that they didn't have to move. That's the worst. Good on that fan base for keeping them there through sheer force of will. I follow the Premier League and the Championship League (and the last few World Cup matches every time), but I haven't really given much shrift till now for American soccer, mostly because I started following English leagues when I was living there for a short time in college (Toon Army, Arsenal, and Chelsea, in that order, and I despise Man Utd). I can see the attraction now, and since I live directly between Portland and Seattle, I suppose I'll have to go ahead and start supporting the Sounders. They have a pretty big following around here. I love Portland as a city, but I just can't support the Timbers. Can't bring myself to do it. Besides, I don't support the local football team, I cannot stand the Seahawks because there's an old leftover rivalry with my football team & theirs that goes back to the 60s. I really feel for those Columbus Crew folks that they almost had to move, my football team has been moved three times now, but you know you are a real fan when you follow them through thick and thin (even when it's been thin for a very long time now) through multiple cities. So there's that.

Crew for Life!

Should react to the LAFC - Galaxy playoffs match from 2019 if you care to. Was there in person and it was solid goosebumps.

Atleast the rivalry isn’t called that Holy Matromony is between one man and women another sign from Cincinnati to Columbus

My MLS team lacks a rival. And that kinda sucks. St. Louis is getting a team soon though, I guess they'll probably be our rival.

Do Toronto fc v Montreal impact

Columbus Crew has a great organic fanbase… Was really inspiring how they rallied and got the Crew to stay in Columbus THEN they even rallied to save the club’s name from being changed to the more boring and generic “Columbus FC” and they stopped that as well So they’ve got their same beloved club with the same name AND an awesome-looking new badge as well Crew, Borussia Dortmund, and Watford fans should all form an international supporters alliance lol ⬛️🟨

Massive as always. Big ups from Ohio

Hell is Real is fun, but it has been feeling a little fabricated to me. FCC supporters were a great help with Save The Crew, so I will always appreciate them for that. They feel more like an annoying little sibling now. I want to beat them, but when all is said and done, they're okay in my book.

Fun fact: in Ohio it's been illegal to move a team if the team benefits from local or state tax dollars unless you give local potential owners buy the team or the city approves since 1995.

You should react to "Roll Tide War Eagle"

Please do reaction about Seattle Sounders FC vs Portland Timbers FC derby

please watch the video about The Crew opening up their new stadium 2 weeks ago.

U should review the mls 2020 final

A good channel to react to for American soccer/football is 11 yanks he breaks down pretty much every national team game and roster

I can’t wait for the sporting kc vs stl city sc derby starting in 2023💪💪

Leaving Pulisic and other stars off the USMNT for Concacaf is garbage. The stars for England give up much time off for Euro’s and World Cup. Too much to ask our guys the same?

Both teams opened new stadiums this year. FC Cincinnati has the most incredible exterior lighting feature. Look up "West End Stadium Fin Lighting" on here.

I'm from Ohio

YES GO CREW

Cincinnati has a beautiful new soccer stadium.. They will be amazing to watch for years to come.. I'm not a fan personally I'm just a Soccer/Futbol fan and enjoy watching the game when 💩 politics aren't being thrown in our face

Cali Classico next!!!

The Lady is The Real Deal 😊

So the old owner hurt the team and didnt help in the pushing the brand.. The commissioner of the league went with it, both parties saying Columbus was a terrible market for soccer. So the word got out they were working together to move the team to austin.. Fans from all walks of life banded together and found out that there is a State Law stating if taxpayers money went into a professional team, before moving a team they have to put a price on the team.

Go Crew! We were not going to give up our team without a fight.

I was born in Cols Ohio YES!!!!!!
