Zealand is one of the best football creators from the USA. On his main channel he always does entertaining football stories and on his second channel he’s like the Penguinz0 of football and talks about recent football news or matches.

Damn, is that guy Luke without a beard?? Anyway, legends both of you. God bless, from Norway

Im glad you watched this video, it does a good job explaining the system in the biggest football country on earth, but a football country that can feel just as foreign to us Europeans as the sport of football does to you Americans. Learning about the shear scale of Brazilian football alone shows just how massive the beautiful game is.

It's like Luke found his Brazilian counterpart

You NEED to watch his video " Why the US sucks at football" He explained the history of the sport in the US

I remember when you were still deciding what team to support you were considering Wrexham and that you also really liked the Wrexham documentary I just wanted to recommend you check out the documentary about there rivals called “chester city fc the American dream” and to give you a brief overview it’s about an American who decided to buy Wrexhams rivals Chester city who were struggling badly financially and in the fourth division but he was a really bad owner and got them relegated out of professional football for the first time in over 60 years (yes i am only recommending you this because I am a Chester fan lol)

Yes❤❤❤❤ you found Z

Gremio x Santa Cruz was 6x2 Gremio. It's still amazing, considering Gremio was the 2nd best team on nationals league last year. And has won the state championship for the 7th in a row.

You should react to more brazilian football! It was so good seeing you reacting to something with my team from the heart: Grêmio! Look for Libertadores videos and other south american football stories. Brazil is home to the most world cup titles and south america is home to the last world champions. It's a culture-rich football scene, full of rivalries and long-time stories. I would love to watch you getting to know more about it all!

07:20 i'm dying 🤣

Hey this a crossover I can get behind! Zealand is my favourite streamer and I’m hooked on your videos! Keep up the great work. Even better that the topic is my country’s football!

On your closing line, it's not the top flight of Brazilian football, it's the top flight of the state's football. This is grassroots!

Loving the journey your on 👊

Ronaldinho and Suarez played for grêmio!

I literally saw this today and thought "this would be a perfect video for Luke"

Awesome story and one that I never had a clue about!! Thanks for reacting and sharing 😊👍

Idk if you timed this on purpose or not, but Gremio just won the state championship today. Santa Cruz ended up getting relegated with 0 wins.

Watching Zealand content is only a short step from Football Manager...

U should do a show about the CURRENT Germany champions 2024 That’s one hell of a ride they’ve had and the amount of history they have to this 1st trophy ever 100%

Incroyable

I love Zealand. One of the best football content creators.

I cant speak on other European countries. But here in Belgium every city has at least one club. And I mean every city. In Flanders we have almost 3800 teams for 300 cities.

I recommend you watch Zealands video about the Faroe Islands team klaksvik

Since you've entered the Zealandverse, I'd like to talk to you about our Lord and Savior, Zealand. Have you ever tried Football Manager?

Could you take a look at Will Still he's been doing amazing in France as a manager

Why does Thiago looks very much like you Luke .

Had to look up how the mat h went. 6-2 defeat, and they havent won a game. Lost 7 drawn 4 so far. Looking like theyll go down unless they turn it around

Suarez played for Gremio!

Only in the beautiful game

He has a 3rd channel called "Zealandism" and I think you'd really like it. He covers football news on there.

one problem for Santa Cruz is that it's not even the biggest club in it's own city. Avenida has more fans and more success afaik. Also, probably over 90% of Santa Cruz do Sul population are Grêmio or Internacional supporters, having their own city clubs as only 2nd teams. speaking a little more of State Leagues, the biggest ones have 3 or more divisions. In Rio Grande do Sul state league main divison: Grêmio, Internacional and Juventude play Serie A. Caxias (same city as Juventude), São José and Ypiranga play Serie C Avenida, Brasil Pelotas and Novo Hamburgo play Serie D. So, 9 teams out of 12 are playing national leagues. Not bad at all.

why you dont start a local club? Sunday league team. You can manage it, coach it :)

When he cut his hair he looks a bit like you lol

Grêmio won the 43th state league yesterday. Now the Brazilian League starts and wednesday there is also a South American Cup match. Here a very cool video inside and outside the stadium, filmed by this guy who travels all over Brazil by bus following the best matches from all big clubs kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gseYo9J8mauWoXU.html ps: state leagues are semi-independent of the national league. You can get relegated in your state league and be champion of the national league in the same year. Just what are the odds lol Most state leagues are dominated by few clubs, usually from the capital. In Rio Grande do Sul state, Grêmio and Inter won 88 times, since the League started in 1919. So 105 years of League, 88 years the League was won by either Grêmio or Inter. But in many states, even the usual winner plays in the Serie C or Serie D of the national League. Grêmio is considered a big club because it's one of the oldest FOOTBALL Brazilian Clubs (1903). Of the big clubs only Fluminense is older, playing football. Flamengo for example is older but they were a rowing club, and started their football team later. Also because it won 3 South American Cups (Libertadores da América), 2 brazilian leagues, 5 Brazil Cups (and the National Cup in Brazil is considered bigger than Cups in other countries), 1 World Title, and also faced equal to equal, losing on Penalties, to Ajax of Amsterdam, in 1995... a team that was basically the same as the Dutch National team...

And obviously now everybody is looking up highlights of that match in February :D

Video for you react to is Leeds are going up and Leeds United and Marcelo Bielsa

You have the same look as him. 😂

React more to zealand

unfortunately they got relegated again and never won a game this season

The leagues only run from january to April?

USA sports are lame because teams dont have any souls. The smell and act as corporations. They aren't about the people but about the money.
