HARRISON, N.J. – Of the many aspects that make American soccer fandom so unique, supporters’ culture remains amongst the most intriguing.
As the world’s game continues to evolve in new and exciting ways domestically, so too does the support in the stands.
Want proof? Look no further than the sprawling tifo displays often adorned in the South Ward.
Derived from the Italian word “tifosi” (meaning “fans”), tifos can be found in soccer stadiums all over the globe, ranging from a simple banner to the grandiose spectacles seen hoisted in support of German giants Borussia Dortmund.
Representing a region as diverse as New York, the Empire Supporters Club exudes their own flair when it comes to tifo displays at Red Bull Arena.
