The Politisches derby (lit. Political derby) is an association football rivalry between German clubs FC Hansa Rostock and FC St. Pauli. The derby was first contested on 12 August 1992.[1] Hansa Rostock play at the Ostseestadion in Rostock, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, while St. Pauli play at the Millerntor-Stadion in St. Pauli, Hamburg. The teams have played 24 matches, with each side winning 12.
History
[edit]The origin of the name Politisches derby is due to leftist alignment of St. Pauli and rightist alignment of Hansa Rostock. In 1980s, St. Pauli transitioned from standard traditional club into Kult club, officially banning right-wing nationalist activities and displays in its stadium during a period of fascist-inspired football hooliganism across Europe,[2] while Hansa Rostock leans towards far-right ideology and Neo-Nazism.[3]
The first derby was played on 12 August 1992, Hansa Rostock won 2–0 away at St. Pauli.[1] Both clubs have contested majority of the derby in 2. Bundesliga. The first top-flight derby was contested on 23 September 1995 during 1995–96 Bundesliga season.[4]
Economics also played a part in the rivalry. Rostock was the primary port of East Germany, which had a socialist planned economy, and the government and football authorities privileged the city and the club. Upon German reunification, Rostock was now one of many ports, with several in the west – including Hamburg, the home of St Pauli – having better facilities. Unemployment led to violent xenophobia in August 1992, and the unrest was still ongoing when St Pauli arrived for their first match against Hansa.[5]
Supporters
[edit]Fans and violence
[edit]The violence clashes between both sets of fans are a common occurrence due to their political ideologies as Hansa Rostock promotes Neo-Nazism, while St. Pauli fans are anti-fascist, making it one the football match with high police security.[6] During a clash between the clubs, Hansa Rostock fans wore black hoods with number 88 on it. After a late St. Pauli goal, Hansa Rostock fans peppered celebrating St. Pauli at away end with fireworks and flares, while bananas were thrown at St. Pauli's black goalkeeper. During a match away to Rostock, St. Pauli unveiled a 20 meter long banner at away end with a message, "St. Pauli Antifa – Red or Dead" and were barraged with missiles. After a match in 2011, Rostock coach Peter Vollmann said, "You could hand out a €10 million fine, it changes nothing. It is hopeless." After Hansa's fascist chants.[7] During the match bananas were thrown at St. Pauli goalkeeper, Philipp Tschauner and a Rostock fan hung up a St. Pauli shirt doused in petrol and set it alight.[8]
During 2009–10 season, St. Pauli supported fans of Hansa Rostock after St. Pauli reduced away fans seats from 1,900 to 500, also displaying a banner saying, "Today Rostock, Tomorrow Us?".[9]
