#10 Real Madrid (Ultras Sur)
Trending
Formed in 1980, the Ultras Sur has been led by Jose Luis Ochaeta, a man who has been arrested several times and has also been banned across a number of sporting facilities. It was their love for Real Madrid and the Ultras believed they were the face of the club at the ground level, dealing with the taunts towards the opposition fans in their own ways and as a result of this, have gained a reputation for being the most violent set of fans in Spain.
Believed to be an Ultra group that operates similarly to the Lazio Ultra group Irreducibli, this group is believed to be aligned to right-wing politics and have gained notorious mentions for their racist activities. The group has been at the forefront of footballing violence on numerous occasions in the past, rioting and entering into a brawl with the Ultras of their arch rivals Barcelona in 1983 and then following it up with fights with Inter Milan fans in 1985 and 1986.
Their activities did not go unnoticed and soon reports began to emerge about the unrest amongst other fans. However, the Ultras Sur went about their business of disrupting the normal course of action in and around the matches and were subsequently even arrested. In recent years, they have been involved in racially abusing a number of players, leading to an investigation being launched against the club by UEFA.
After being banned by the current president Florentino Perez, the segment now regularly engages in protest outside the club stadium demanding their reinstatement. With the atmosphere at their great stadium almost dull, it remains to be seen if Perez will be keen to negotiate with the devil.
