Rome derby


 

The Rome derby is a yearly football match between Lazio and Roma in their Stadio Olimpico. Like other local derbies it is more intense and personal than most matches. It has been historically marked by massive crowds, excitement, violence, and (recently) racist banners in the crowd. As one commentator puts it, "There are few games on the world stage that can match the bitterness, rivalry and sheer passion of the Rome derby." http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/sa0304/rom-laz.html
