A lot of youtubers do iceberg videos but not as much do football ones and especially not this well thought and executed... Props to you Vizeh

1:05:00 - As a bolton fan Fabrice's moment has always stayed with me, despite only being 11 at the time. The crazy thing is, the medical team certainly saved his life, but it was actually a Spurs fan who got onto the pitch who saved his future. The fan happened to be a cardiologist and told them to go straight to a cardiology specialist hospital instead of the closest general hospital, it no doubt saved his ability to recover most of his mental function.

Nearly 2 hours, You can tell Viz put work into this one

51:48 shit actually broke me 50 years of harrasment when u had most clean sheats that same WC ppl blame u for losing

Two more incidents that would belong here: - Sascha Lewandowski, a German football coach who took his life after being accused of pedophilia - Chile at the 1974 World Cup. Chile had to play a qualification playoff against the Soviet Union but the Soviet team refused to play in Santiago as the stadium was the site of tortures and murders of dissidents in Pinochet's regime after the coup in 1973. The match was played anyway, without a Soviet team present on the pitch. Chile went on to take part in the 1974 World Cup in West Germany.

My girlfriend is Zambian so I know about the Zambia air crash just horrible it was. When they won AFCON 2012 the Zambia team was 25 miles from the crash site. I'm a Liverpool fan my grandmother survived Hillsborough and said how horrible it was

There was one particular story you kinda missed here. I first read it in a football magazine as a kid and it deeply shocked me back then. On August 11th, 1979, the team of FC Pakhtakor Tashkent were on board a plane flying from Tashkent, Uzbek SSR, to Minsk, Belarussian SSR, to play an away match. The flight included stops in Atyrau (Kazakh SSR) and Donetsk (Ukrainian SSR). At approximately 13:35 local time the plane collided with another aircraft flying from Chelyabinsk, RSFSR, to Chisinau, Moldavian SSR, at an altitude of 8,400 m inside a cloud. The Minsk plane crashed its wing inside the Chisinau plane's pilot cabin, instantly killing all the pilots and cutting the entire aircraft into several parts. The Minsk flight crew, despite their aircraft losing a tail pin, an engine and a part of a wing, tried to perform an emergency landing, but at 3,800 m they lost control over the plane, which hit the ground shortly afterwards. All of the 178 people on board both flights were killed, including 17 members of FC Pakhtakor football team (15 players and 2 coaches). The youngest player on the team, Sirojiddin Bazarov, had only turned 18 the day before, and was supposed to fly to Minsk with the reserves squad, but was late for his flight and went with the first team instead. Mikhail An, the captain of the club and also of the USSR national football team, wasn't required to fly with his teammates due to being injured but he was persuaded to go with the rest of the squad to 'boost the squad's morale'. The investigation proved that the catastrophe happened due to ATC error. The ATC manager wrongly interpreted the position of the plane. which led to failing to adjust the two aircrafts' altitudes and to avoid the collision. I has also been noted that, due to Leonid Brezhnev reportedly flying to Crimea on the same day, the aircraft corridors were overloaded in order to make way for the leader's plane. Eventually, the two ATC specialists that were in charge on the crash day were both sentenced to 15 years in penal colony. One of them, Nikolay Zhukovsky, reportedly committed suicide; however, according to others, he served his 15-year sentence and 'died on his own'. The other, Vladimir Sumy, served 6.5 years and was released on parole.

At 1:25:06 there's a cut regarding Eddy Hamel, that basically took out the entire story. For the audience, I did a bit of reading to find out what he was all about, and it's honestly worse than you can imagine. Eddy Hamel was an American right back who played for AFC Ajax between 1922 and 1930, and became the club's first-ever Jewish player. Though he was born in America, his parents were Dutch, and they moved back to the Netherlands when he was six months old. He stopped playing football in 1930, and had a brief stint as a manager. After the N@zi invasion of the Netherlands in 1940, local F*scist groups assisted the N@zis in rounding up local Jews, of which Hamel was one. In 1942, despite his American heritage, he was detained and sent to a labor camp in Birkenau, where he stayed for four months. During a N@zi inspection, he was found to have had a swollen abscess in his mouth, and so he was sent to Auschwitz, where he was then sent to a gas chamber. Absolutely horrific.

This hits different after seeing Varca get officially charged with Bribery from 2009-2018 🤣🤣🤣

An hour and 40 minutes of pure heaven

Loved this video and brought me a tear in my eye (a mournful tear, sadly). I knew more of a PL fan, but loved how you covered southamerican football (especially the events involving Argentina, which...damn, they were quite a few). I would add two events to the tip of the Iceberg (if you would like to look into it): Sao Paulo - Tigre, Copa Sudamericana Finals. In Brazil, after a 2-0 lead at the first half, SP supporters and the police threatened Tigre team with guns, and the argentine team refuse to play the 2nd half. This resulted in SP winning the trophy. Luckily, just a big fking threat. They will face each other again tomorrow (27/6). And lower would add the Chapecoense's tragedy in 2016. Similar to what happened to Sala, but almost a whole Brazilian team when they were travelling from Bolivia to Colombia to face Atlético Nacional for the Sudamericana Finals.

I can't believe how much time you put into your content. Videos that are always at least half an hour, and always high quality the whole way through. It's unbelievable! Time to sit back and watch the show :D

It's amazing to see how your channel had developed over the years and how you yourself have adapted and grown. Well done to you mate, I hope you grow consistently and have nothing but great things happen! Much love

One more addition could have been the A Chapecoense Crash, in which they were a team in the Brazilian league and they had been on a streak of going up divisions, and qualified for the sul-americana, they went really well in the competition and qualified for the final, but on the way to the game, they crashed their plane in which most of the people inside died, including most pf the players of the team, team staff, the flight attendants, and the pilot. It was a horrible moment in Brazil, and I remember waking up and see my mom almost crying looking at the news that the plane had crashed, it was an agonizing day. After a few days it was discovered that only 3 of the players had survived the accident, but only one made a full recovery while the other two lost limbs. A truly horrible story, after a few months of the crash the team had honorarily won the sul-americana, and was allowed to rebuild their team without the fear of relegation for two years. They also played a friendly with Barcelona at the Camp Nou, where they played against Messi which was a dream for all of them.

the barbossa story is so sad how can you do something like that to a person who defended the team i'd say very well, because if uruguway was so good they would easily score even 7 goals past him but they only scored 2 im sorry for this man he deserved better

Man i love these videos. I dont see many documentary type videos on football, or really any topic i like, and you have done and are doing a fantastic job with filling in that area Well researched topics displayed in a way that keeps me interested and i will say, keeps me coming back because this content is something i can watch several times and still be interested Thanks and keep it up

bro this is amazing!!! Watched the whole thing looking forward to seeing more content from you this is very well made, class!!!

love this type of video,Keep up the good work mate!

At 1:26:05 there is a cut that essentially removes all of the story about Edward Hamel.

thank you for this viz!! been waiting eagerly :-)

My grandad was in the ibrox disaster with his dad. His dad was the oldest man to die that day. My grandad broke both his femurs, met my gran in hospital recovering as she was his nurse & they had my dad. Life has a funny way of making bad situations good sometimes.

I am glad your company is well and thank you for the good content 👍🏼👍🏼

such a good video yet again viz! keep it up man

Keep up the grind man, your the only Football / FIFA KZfaqr i really appreciate watching. No clickbait pack opening stuff, only good and quality content

just started watching your videos and im loving them so far! much love from Brazil 🇧🇷❤

24:13 now that is a badass thing to do I can’t even lie I respect that

Great Video 🙌, would love another long ice burg video with completely new stories and topics not covered yet. Keep up the great work Liam 🙌

Great stuff, thanks for putting this together sir!

The Greg Akcelrod part has a bit of an inaccuracy. CSKA Sofia never actually qualified for the Champions' league of 08/09. In fact, they did not even play any of the qualifying rounds they needed to win to qualify.

41:52 Argentina vs Peru: I don't know if anyone has commented it, but the goalkeeper of the Peru national team was... Argentinian, and I'm not joking, his name is Ramón Quiroga

Isn’t this just all your other ice bergs combined? Majority of these stories you already featured in other videos

As an iceberg person, this satisfies my need for icebergs. Now we just need the vizeh iceberg video iceberg.

Man you make me want to start a channel for fun! 👏 great job we love your videos and appreciate your research

Absolute top top quality vid, Vizeh fantastic work 🙌🙌

Keep up the good work Liam you’re content is amazing mate

Great video. By the way, the Thunder and Lightning incident happened in South Africa. it was a match in the early 2000s or late 90s. was watching the game or saw it in the news as a young kid. I can recognize one of the clubs as Moroka Swallows, the club in Maroon. its not related to witchcraft. When it rains in the City of Johannesburg, sometimes it is accompanied by severe lightning. it happens occassionaly, a few times a year.

A disaster you could have mentionned is the 1949 Superga incident, where the entire team of Torino (nicknamed "Grande Torino", because it was one of the best teams in Italy) died in a plane crash. Since then, Torino won a title in the 70's, and played a UEFA in the 90's, but never got back to thei level. Some years ago it came back in the news because of some Juve ultra mocking it during a game, which also really pissed the legendary Inter midfielder Sandro Mazzola, son of Valentino, one of the best attacker of his time and a victim in Superga. One of their greatest player in the 60's, Gigi Meroni (who scored a beautiful goal against the great Inter of Herrera, who were defeated after 3 years WITHOUT LOOSING), got killed in a car accident, the one who killed him being ironically...a Torino fan. They really seem kinda cursed. But anyways it's a really good video !

Love these long vids and I like how you put so much work into this video keep it up!

this was a great and a really sad video, well researched and executed. good job man it did not even feel like 2 hours

Love a good iceberg video. I’m not really a football fan but I just like learning about this stuff. Kinda goes from funny to dark real quick here.

Really really top quality content, keep it up and your channel will be massive in no time 🎉

Fluminense X Lagartense (Brazil's third division, 1999) a folkloric match sheet that shows a match between the recent Relegated Fluminense and a semi-professional team from Lagarto, Sergipe. On that match sheet there's some bizarre Lagartense's player names like Gato (cat) Cego (Blind) and others. For many years was a common-sense that this match really happened but the goals and best momments were lost midia, and the score was Lagartense 3x0. But it all was a mock made by rival Rio's team to swear out the desperated Fluminense situation.

Keep up the good work mate. I've been binge watching your videos since the end of exams

Man that was excellent work, subbed and will have to watch again haha

Unreal work bruv massive respect

Thanks for another great video, Vizeh!

Vizeh and Alfie from HITC Sevens really bringing a whole new level of football content to our screens.

As if we thought Vizeh couldn’t get any better, this is just amazing. Such time and precision was put into this and really shows you what the epitome of KZfaq documentary content could be, and just cinematic content in general! 😄

Love the video. Incredible. I remember that i saw Robert Enke a few times when he played at my local team, Tenerife. He sais after his Barcelona experience (horrible, his own team mates buried him after a bas game) Tenerife was his place ans brought his smile back.

Bro your football iceberg videos are too good man no one does it like you 🤩😄

The first video I've seen from you... will definitely be subscribing and watching more!!!!

Love these long vids keep it up!

Can’t believe ur so consistent with these icebergs, top content 🤞🏽

I really, really enjoy this. Two hours of amazing content about the secrets of the game we love? Yes please, thank you Viz

We love and appreciate the iceberg videos. Vizeh does content no other youtuber can produce, and tells the best stories of the game.

the lightening strike incident seems to have taken place in South Africa. The team in the marron looks like Moroka Swallows and the pre-game show with the slogan "Laduma" is from South African football culture. Further evidence can be seen with the sponsorship boards. The First National Bank is a South African bank known as FNB.

1:19:27 Just a heads up that the "Death Match" (according to sources on wikipedia) was soviet propaganda and the players didnt actually play a game of life and death. it was just a normal football match and the whole story just came up afterwards to inspire the ukrainian population that survived the german occupation. some members of the football team did get arrested and killed later on during the occupation but not in retaliation to the football match. Great Video either way, enjoyed watching it a lot.

The dinamo zagreb - red star belgrad riot should have been on this iceberg. I was really suprised that you didnt mention it. Please look it up.

We ❤️ Vizeh! So inspirational man!

Congrats with 400k!!

Thank you for showing that Argentina's corruption runs deep throughout history 🤣🤣

It’s always an amazing day when Vizeh uploads! Cheers mate! Hope you are having a fantastic day!

Just so you know. Pablo Escobar bankrolled both Atletico Nacional and Independiente Medellin, and was a fan of the latter. Also, he was already dead when Colombia played the 1994 World Cup. Andres Escobar's assassination was deemed to be a result of Pablo Escobar's absence, as he was reportedly very protective and fond of the national team's players; as such, had he been alive, Andres Escobar may have not been murdered, as Pablo wouldn't have allowed it otherwise.

i really enjoy your new style of videos now

Good vid! The 7 cats one is nuts 🐈

Why is there nothing about German football? One easy story that's more interesting than most premier league incidents here: literally every Schalke v Dortmund game from the first 40 years of Bundesliga. Schalke brought a lion onto the pitch to scare Dortmund after a dog bit a Schalke player in the prior derby match. And that's a boring story in comparison. But football seems to be a premier league only thing...

Ay bro I’ve been a fan since the fifa 19 days and I gotta say, the way you transitioned your content over to something I can tell you enjoy much more is actually impressive and I can say whole heartedly we enjoy it a lot as well so keep going man❤️❤️❤️

Not long enough Viz, need another 12 by the end of this week

I told my wife I’m not going to look for a movie to watch tonight for this video❤ absolutely love the series mate

RIP Robert Enke

Sort of puts Shankleys word up his arse. I remember so many of these tragedies. It is just a game yet so many deaths?? Some superd moments too. Bradley again bought a tear to my eyes. Fabrice the survivor. To Vizeh, brilliant video. Well thought out and constructed.

Yo Vizeh, reasonably new to your channel but have caught up with a decent amount. I think I got in around when you did that first iceberg. Safe. Anyways. Idea for a video. Who was the hardest team? Leeds under Don Revie, Crazy Gang, 30’s Liverpool vs Man Utd etc. What you reckon? Chelsea fan in Berlin. Peace. Up the Chels.

Appreciate the hard work. Im new to the channel.

This is an incredible masterpiece just from the length alone

My new favorite football KZfaqr. I subscribed to you.

7:58 i think you meant to say the smallest country and not city. Btw so far the best football video i’ve seen EVER

I am addicted to these iceberg vids ❤❤

Bro i love your content iceberg videos because then i get to know more about football ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ love these videos bro ❤❤❤❤❤❤

i have learnt so many things i didnt know of before just because of this searies so thank you so much for it. also when are you doing your prem predictions?

Villaplane was a psychopath. Even from the way he looked, you could look like one and nice that you did a piece on him Liam. Loving the icebergs and videos

29:40 cid cidoso mentioned in this iceberg, thats really nice

About Enke, his issues started after a Copa del Rey match with Barcelona, during which his mistake cost Barcelona the match. He was made a scapegoat despite his young age, and never played for the team again

literally yesterday I watched the one you made 4 months ago, I see some tricks of the trade for some previously covered topics ;)

Respect the dedication 🤝🏼

This is so much better than the fifa videos, props to you Vizeh 👏

Is this the edited version from the last ultimate darkest football iceberg? I think I learned most of them on the list and I need to know if there's new additions and blurred certain words from the first one.

Absolutely loved this video. Just had a power outage so i spent my time watching this on my phone. Nothing is stopping me from watching Vizeh😂

This was a brilliant watch

Wow! I just subscribed to Vizeh and suddenly my father came back, my family loves me again, and I am getting scouted! Thanks Vizeh!

About the Guttmann curse: it is a myth. Guttmann never once said that to the Benfica board and in the years following his departure from Benfica, he was actually interviewed and said that he hoped that Benfica won the finals. Where did it come from? No one really knows, but it is not a thing until the 88 Final

Great video great content you got my sub 👍

if you were to do another episode of this series you could include Superga Tragedy or Abdulhak Nouri. Just a suggestion

So much time and effort, remember me when you have ten mil subs

Vizeh I've been watching you since 2019, I'm so glad you're getting the attention you deserve

keep up the incredible content

Legend! Absolute legend!

Mate I fucking LOVE your channel. New here and a huge fan.

keep grinding man

All these years later, after seeing arsenal lose a champions league final and lose to barca after the van persie sending off it only hurts more that they have proven that barca had payed off the refs.
