This Is How Frankfurt Fans INVADED Camp Nou. (Barcelona, Eintracht Frankfurt) (Football Forensics)

In this Football Forensics, I take a deep dive into how Eintracht Frankfurt Fans invaded Barcelona's Camp Nou a couple weeks ago in the Europa League.

Frankfurt is kinda known for this in Germany, nobody is better in organizing away tickets

[DeiMudisHeiss]

I was at the fan walk in Barcelona and in Camp Nou as well and I would estimate there were like 50.000 Frankfurt fans in the city and 30.000 to 35.000 Frankfurt fans in the stadium! This was the greatest experience ever! I hope we can win the cup 🤩🦅

I bought 6 tickets on the fc barcelona website itself and you didn't need a Spanish credit card. Non-German was sufficient. I used a virtual card that you get everywhere on the internet and there even were tutorials about how to do it in some Eintracht news groups. Was great trip and great stadium experience 👍🏼

Someone even changed the Wikipedia of the Camp Nou and Barcelona to: 2nd Homeground of Eintracht Frankfurt and part of the city of Frankfurt

"Is a club as old as the Bundesliga itself" excuse me, the club is quite a bit older than that^^ The Bundesliga only exists since what ... 63?

I asked my Spanish friends if they could buy me a ticket with their credit card. That’s how I got legal my ticket for this insane game. The Barcelona security was also very bad so some of our supporters walked in with a copy of a QR code from someone else. They didn’t care about it.

I couldn't help myself to think, that Barca leadership actually didn't mind the situation until the team was 2:0 down. Would people have cared if Barca won anyway? They accepted the invasion for financial reasons, and only realized that they misjudged the situation when the SGE supporters pushed their team into such an outstanding victory.
Maybe this night is the healthy fever, that can heal a great club from the sickness of money -driven decisions and revive a fan base that Barca as one of the clubs with the most shiny name definitely should have again.

Good Luck Frankfurt🇩🇪love from Celtic ☘️💚

Ter Stegen went up on the field, to warm up. After a couple of minutes he went back to the cabine and said to his team mates something like "guys, this isnt a home game tonight, we are not in barcelona"

[mikeweyrauch]

Barca didn't struggle because they hade a outdated ticket system but because the have more tourists in their stadium than real fans.
Barca has lost this emotion that fans love about football and became a marketing construct.

[fakename]

What do you mean, when you say that we‘re lucky no one was hurt? Frankfurt fans are generally peaceful inside the stadium and the more temperamental guys usually mess with opposing fans the day before. Not that thats great but… it’s not like even more Frankfurt fans would have caused assault. Two hessian reporters were attacked because they spoke german and cheered when the 0:1 was scored.

I'm so happy for frankfurt, its fanbase has become one of my favorites just for these kinds of things. congrats for winning the cup, well deserved, I'm supporting them because of Rafa, but I'm staying for the fans

[markusknobloch]

Why should anyone "get seriously hurt from that incident" ? Frankfurt fans are just football fans and not criminals!
The disloyal, greedy Barca Fans were the ones who commited a kind of support suicide ..
and then Laporta framed Frankfurt supporters as criminal.. very poor looser I´d say!

[kwbfm]

Barcelona wasn't lucky that nobody got hurt. They were lucky that somebody showed up for the game.

[maximilianschulz]

Ah yeah, and the arrogance was also a factor! Our board spokesman Axel Hellmann told Barca executives that our fans are crazy and unlike anything they ever witnessed but they just brushed him off. They became victims of their own hubris.

@Football Moments: Great "Context" section. The story with Die Eintracht is: The club won its only German championship in 1959 when it was still a playoff format. This was just before "Die Bundesliga" started. After that, it's a story of a few cup wins, a traumatic Bundesliga last-day loss in 1992, financial troubles, a few relegations and many missed opportunities.

Indeed (<--Sponsor), this is perceived as the biggest game in club history. Eintracht is not a regular at Camp Nou, so the fans said "We take this."

The 2018 DFB-Pokal final 3-1 win vs. "Die Bayern" (in neutral Berlin) was the template for this event. 1. Come in full force, 2. Take the city by noon 3. outperform the opponent's fans, 4. keep going no matter what the score is. 5. The team knows, expects and works with this. From an Eintracht point of view, there was no other chance.

During my 11 years as Army doctor in Frankfurt in the 1980 to 1990s I suffered with Eintracht, now I celebrated!

I bought VIP tickets on the Barca website with a German Credit card and an German IP for a price, which was less than a business ticket in the Waldstadion. Thia was possibke even before the regular re-selling started and cheaper than buying regular tickets later on. Plus a nice catering in the Barca museum, surrounded by their trophies from older days:-)

[HungTran-ficd]

I was there that night! It was mad to see the Camp Nou flooded in white.

[sivaramlord]

This is so damn cool. I visited Frankfurt in 2021 and their fans are so awesome. I am a Bayern fan from Singapore and i made friends with one of them at a Beer Hall. He even texted me in Dec to beat Barca at the UCL. Next thing you know Bayern, did beat Barca and sent them to face Frankfurt at the Europa league. So it was my turn to return the well wishes to Frankfurt fans. They deserved it, and they won the Europa league. Passioniate fan support alone can get you titles.
