Epic Māori All Blacks Haka vs USA Eagles [EOYT18]

wow

[DevinZA]

I may get flak for this, but goodness some of the comments here are just sooo.blegh. Why is everyone having a go at the crowd? You guys act like the world bows to the Haka and treats it with some reverence...they do not. Saffers sing Ole as loud as they can to drown out the Haka, the Poms sing Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Irish sing Fields of Athenry.
Even the Scots chant SCOOOTLAND during Hakas.

...Do you guys watch rugby?

Yes it's a nice tradition, but buddy, it's a war c ry, and you're away from home, expect to get some response from the home supporters.

[Karthi_K_Yeah]

Wow... That Lead guy in Haka looked like a freakin Warlord... A Gladiator

[helpoj]

Crazy this scene,
Were looking at two parallels,
One country that wiped out its indigenous completely against another country that honours it.

[bunoz]

The Haka biggest advantage is it settles any nervous prepares you for the battle ahead and brings the team together on and off the field

[nicoferri]

The guy with the flag: " I'm not paid enough for this"

[oiurehj]

Us: Why are you doing that?
NZ: It's our culture.
Us: Culture? What's that?

[FrostBite]

I'm from the US and I found the Haka both intimidating and emotional. It's was fun to watch and I have a huge appreciation to other cultures and their traditions.

[desertwarrior]

Epic Haka !! That haka leader is a freakin gladiator!!

[truebloke]

1:44 is the coolest shit I've ever seen

[junkonakamura]

An American player: What are they doing, capt?
Captain: I've no idea. Come closer to me. We'll be safe.

[hyouzanren]

NZ:"perform haka! "
US:"WHERE MY GOD DAMN AIR SUPPORT?"

[aagbayani]

as a hawaiian, i respect that, and the us team and their fans should too. i dont know why but this makes me proud even though im not of that culture.

[NabilAbdulrashidComedy]

Americans looking like “can we call in a drone strike now please?!😱”

[truefrompg]

Now that's a leader. Loved how he gave the word and the rest moved at the end. Triple OG status

[UltraRed]

Man that shot of Ash @1:43 just STARING them down was godlike. He looked pissed

[scrooge]

Making noise and shouting USA USA USA during a haka feels disrespectful to me. They come across as the type to shout F-yea at an opera

[THLLS-ejtq]

Modern day warriors with the power of their ancestors, their homeland and---an undefeatable spirit backing them.

[kikia]

This is definitely an underrated sport in the US, unlike basketball, football, baseball, etc. Love watching the Maori and AB teams, the haka is awesome in all its variations.

[samaravadi]

Kiwis: It's our culture
Americans: here's ours *calls in drone strike*

[mike]

A privilege to receive something like that.
