I think dresden v leipzig is lively as well.
How can that Berlin derby have any real rivalry???
Hertha Berlin and Union Berlin have only EVER played each other 4 times in their entire histories.
Hertha have won 1, Union have won 1 and there’s been 2 draws.
I live in Berlin and follow the local football closely (season ticket at BFC Dynamo). I can honestly say the pigs harping on about Hertha and the 'Berlin Derby' are talking bobar.
Firstly, Hertha's ground may be big, but it's a terrible atmosphere. Even their own fans say so and most want to move to a proper four sided football stadium for this reason.
Hertha are a bit of a joke club as well. Perennial underperformers and painfully commercial, think carlsberg in blue tins with club crest. Loads of daytrippers and 'new berliners' (out of towners and foreigners who just want to watch bundesliga). Don't get me wrong they have some quality fans, particularly in old west Berlin working class areas like Wedding or Spandau but these are far outweighed by gloryhunting (ironically cos they win nowt) dimwits from satellite suburbs. Theres a few parallels with wednesday in the blue and white stripes, shit atmosphere in a ground too big for them and nobhead fans.
Union were close to ruin only 10ish years ago playing in front of crowds of 5000. They were traditionally the anti-communist team in East Berlin. Fans were a mixture of hippies, rowdies who used to chant liverpool cos of their hooligan rep in europe (heysel etc) and locals from the deep south east where the club is. Fans are pretty decent nowadays but the club is getting a bit of a hipster reputation with lots of people who don't go to matches wearing gear cos its become the latest cool Berlin thing to do. Some of the brats you meet from london or madrid and that are unbearable.
The 'berlin derby' is an utter joke because during the division of the city (up to 1989 for all young uns) hertha and union were actually best pals. They used to wear each other's shirts, fly each other's flags and sing each other's songs. Some gesture of Berliner solidarity across the wall I guess. Younger generation's forgotten about it now and their main interaction is putting stickers over each others in the u bahn. They don't really give a shit about each other.
The real Berlin derby, as all true burgundy and white Berliners know, is Dynamo v Union. They properly hate each other and 15,000 turned out to watch their reserve sides play cos theyve been in separate leagues for so many years.
Dynamo were the communist/working class side in East Berlin. Mad head fans. Proper support despite decades of being shite. But they did beat the scabs at the city ground once back in 1980.
In short, Luhukay has previous in failing to turn a massive sleeping giant round and his 'derby experience' won't have prepared him for friday night at bdtbl!
Dresden vs The RAF and USAAF was a little one sided though.

Hertha were nailed on to win two but Rudolf Hess put through his own goal in the 94th minute.How can that Berlin derby have any real rivalry???

Thanks for that Dynamo. Learning about football cultures in other cities/ countries is really interesting.
I heard a quote on tv (think it was the German football show) that “Berlin is the city that German football forgot”.
Apparently the Berlin teams have under performed so often, for so many decades, that it’s never at any time been classed as a proper football city (compared to Hamburg, Munich, Dortmund etc).
Cheers for the insight Dynamo. Interesting read
BTW, Dynamo, show us a few magic tricks![]()
We just need to back that up tomorrow night now...
