Soccer's Most Violent Rivalry: VWOS

In Serbia one violent game has endured communism and civil war: The Eternal Derby.

In this episode of VICE World of Sports, we check out Serbia's Eternal Derby, which pits Serbia's two biggest soccer teams—Red Star and Partizan—against one another in what is one of the most epic rivalries in world soccer. Their stadiums are only a half-mile apart, and their fans don't just want to win; they want blood. Many U.S. viewers will see a side of fan culture that simply doesn't exist in the United States: hooliganism, coordinated fan violence, and fan choreography so spectacular the match itself must be stopped. The scenes are truly wild.
