G'day tribe. Yesterday I began the series of the biggest and most hate filled rivalries in football which you can see here. Check out part two below!!
10. Olympiacos vs Panathinaikos
The Derby of the eternal rivals is a battle between Greece's biggest clubs and Greater Athens rivals. The ferocious intensity between both sets of supporters has made it one of the biggest rivalries in football. Historically it's a battle between high class Olympiacos and working class Panathinaikos.

9. Galatasaray vs. Fenerbahce
The Istanbul-Turkish giants are among the biggest rivalries in football and clash in the Intercontinental Derby. Fenerbahce were founded by local Muslims in the Asian part of Istanbul in contrast to Galatasaray, based on the European side of the city and historically high class French influenced. Enough said!

8. Red Star Belgrade vs. Partizan
One of the biggest derbies in football is between Serbia's capital city clubs
Red Star Belgrade and Partizan. The brutal rivalry stems from their geographical closeness with their stadiums a 12-minute walk apart.

7. Flamengo vs Fluminense
The Fla-Flu derby is Brazil's biggest football derby between Rio de Janeiro giants Flamengo and Fluminense. In 1911 Fluminense players broke away to create Flamengo because of a disagreement with the board. The Fla-Flu derby set a world record attendance for a football match in 1963 with 194,603 fans at a game.

6. Manchester United vs. Manchester City
Manchester City and United are separated by only 4 miles (6.4 km). Although United have been the most dominant team in modern times, City have had an epic resurgence on the back of foreign ownership. Kompany's derby goal in 2012 was the turning point of the rivalry which is the most watched football game in the world.
