It is that time of the year when the summer days hit, the beer is cold and everyone is tuned to the TV watching the Euro 2024 in Germany. It has been a couple of days since the Euro 2024 started, and we have already seen some amazing stuff.
Albania managed to score in just 23 seconds making it the fastest goal at UEFA European Championship. Ronaldo has broken another record just by appearing at the Euro 24, and we’ve seen some passionate fans who go above and beyond for their country.
There is something about UEFA football events like the Euro or World Championship that draws people in and makes the entire atmosphere better. There are thousands of cheering fans all having creative costumes, face paints, and slogans that make the entire championship more interesting.
On top of that, fans give unique energy to each match, and they often push the athletes to do incredible things. That’s why some experienced bettors use the fan's strength when analyzing an upcoming match.
But this got us thinking, which nation has the most passionate fans of the Euro 2024? Having a good football team is one thing, and having passionate supporters is another.
Let’s find out which fans already caught the eye of the public.
Croatian Fans: The Fiery Checkers
Have you managed to catch a Croatian game so far? Well, if you did, you already know how passionate their Croatian fans are. We know what you are thinking at the moment.
You are thinking about the Croatian fan who managed to make headlines in the World Cup 2022 in Qatar. Well, she is also present in the 2024 Euro competitions in Germany.
But Croatian fans have a lot more to offer. There are over two million tickets for the Euro 2024 from Croatian fans, which is a staggering number, to be honest.
That’s why when they play the entire sitting area in the stadium is in red and white with their checkered jerseys.
Croatian fans are known for their vibrant chants and undisputed support during matches, no matter if their team is winning or losing. If you managed to catch the Euro 2016, you definitely heard Croatian fans singing “Ljepa li si” at every match. They are so in sync that listening to the song will give you goosebumps, even if you don’t understand a word. They also continued this tradition on the Euro 2024.
Let’s just hope they last long enough so we can watch even more electrifying games. Unfortunately, the situation is not good at the moment, as they are currently in the last place in the Group phase with one loss and one draw.
Turkish Fans
Turkey is the real surprise of this tournament. It seems like they’ve fallen into an easy group where Portugal is their biggest threat. This looks like they will advance into the next phase of the championship, which means that we will see even more Turkish fans.
Turkish fans are known for their unrivaled support and there is no denying that they bring unique energy to each match.
For example, in the match between Turkey and Georgia, Turkish fans managed to turn the stadium into a sea of red. It almost felt like a home game despite being thousands of miles away from Turkey.
Germany
As the host nation, it is quite obvious to have the biggest number of fans. Unlike other nations, German fans are quite composed and disciplined. However, this doesn’t mean that they are not passionate.
There are more than 2.7 million tickets up for grabs for German fans across all matches. When Germany is playing, the stadium is transformed into an organizational masterpiece. We get to see choreographed chants, well-organized fan zones and a lot of beer. Plus, according to soccer betting odds and recent results they are one of the favorites to win the tournament, so we are likely to see their fans with beautiful tifos until the semifinals or final.
The Scottish Tartan Army
Next, we have the Scottish Tartan Army, which turned out to be incredible supporters. They are known for their traveling spirit, which means that the thousands of miles don’t make much difference to them.
That’s why we can see Scottish fans in such large numbers. But unlike Germans, their cheering style is a bit more vibrant. They often like to exchange a few words with their rival fans, of course in a good and friendly atmosphere.
Their team is often seen as an underdog in this tournament, but we cannot spot a loss of hope in terms of the Tartan Army. They support their players no matter if they are losing or winning.
Spanish Armada
Spain’s supporters are a blend of passion and tradition, often transforming stadiums into cauldrons of red and yellow. The Spanish fans are known for their rhythmic clapping and chants, creating an almost hypnotic atmosphere.
Their love for the beautiful game is evident in their detailed knowledge of the sport and unwavering support for their national team. During Euro 2024, expect the Spanish supporters to turn up in large numbers, especially for high-stakes matches.
England’s Loyal Followers
The English fans, notorious for their loud and proud support, are always a force to reckon with. Traveling in large numbers, the English supporters are expected to fill the stadiums with their iconic chants like "Football’s Coming Home" (which never did since the introduction of the phrase).
Their passion is matched by their knowledge of the game, often making them the most vocal and critical supporters. Despite past controversies, the English fans' love for their team is unparalleled, making them a key part of the Euro 2024 fan mosaic.
