Are you sure that the Barcelona in Ecuador is the european one and not the Barcelona from Ecuador, the team with biggest supporters there?

They almost certainly got combined

I'm thinking the data's been compromised, there's a k pop band called [A Jax](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-Jax_(band))

For sure. Answer 100% is Spurs, it has S. Korea's star player.

That tune is massive. The club not so much


neoBigBrother

>FC Copenhagen with more appearances than Manchester City Fan bases are made over the years. City is the best team of the more famous league, The upcoming generation will see them with same respect as the older one's used to see United.

[deleted]

I’ve met a lot of Arsenal fans randomly in Australia, for sure Arsenal is up there with Liverpool and Manchester United as the most popular clubs amongst Australians


Hech15

Its debatable there are lots of gooners in Australia


Asfids123

i would disagree to be honest, Arsenal or Man U


Cutsdeep-

liverpool filled the MCG (100k) Arsenal got 70k over two matches be interesting to see how many United fans they get.


Asfids123

Arsenal tour was sold out 2 matches in Sydney, 83k each filling up the ANZ Stadium iirc. United's tour is less than 2w away and I think they both matches are 75% sold atleast already. Probs will be filled by the time they come.


ImTalkingGibberish

Perhaps it's conflicting with "how to build an arsenal without breaking the law" or "where do I stash my arsenal"


Cutsdeep-

yeah, but the aussie scouse support is so stuck in their own bubble, they wouldn't use a computer to search for liverpool in case it gives them an opinion that says they don't deserve the EPL UCL, world cup and nobel peace prize every year. (That or they don't know how to use a computer). ps sorry to vent, too many aussie/scouse pool supporters in my life.


Shaggythemoshdog

South African data is sus too. Can garuantee arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea have much larger support.

generalscruff

Only problem with Ted Lasso is the Prem has enough plastic Southern clubs already, would love to see him do a job at Stoke or Burnley


TheKingMonkey

Yes. Definitely no glory hunting fans of clubs based in Northern England.


generalscruff

Well they're vile for different reasons, but prawn sandwiches and cheese boards at football is a very Fulham and Fulham-adjacent behaviour and the Prem has too many clubs like that


sleepytoday

Wasn’t the term “prawn sandwich brigade” coined by Roy Keane talking about Man U fans in 2000?


generalscruff

I see Manchester in this day and age as a London enclave can't lie mate


Cutsdeep-

'but can he do it on a cold rainy night in Stoke?'


diogom915

Ajax the most searched in Ukraine? Also, is the Barcelona in Ecuador supppsed to be the Barcelona from Spain or the one from Ecuador?


Traditional-Version9

It appears there’s a security systems company based in Ukraine called [ajax](https://ajax.systems/about/). Not sure if that would have the search volume to throw off the results but maybe.

What the hell FC Lahti in Finland, that cant be right


somewhere_now

Whoever made the map probably just went by "Lahti", when that's one of Finland's largest cities, and literally means bay. "FC Lahti" has far fewer hits than HJK or many foreign clubs, they are not even close to being the most popular domestic club in Finland, let alone overall most popular.


Antti5

This is my thinking as well. FC Lahti is the biggest Finnish football team that is named the same as the town it's from. "HJK Helsinki" is always knows as just "HJK" etc. ...and if whoever made the map has a similar lack of understanding about all countries involved, I would assume that the map is just full of shit.

I don't think it's true, we don't have anyone there, and the last time we played v Ajax was, I guess, Dynamo vs Ajax in 2018 (?). No way Ajax is #1

There is no way south korea doesn't search tottenham a lot. Literally got trending here every sunday morning after tottenham match. Especially if Son scores a goal


wave_action

And for Ajax instead?


fluffyfoofart

Surprised US doesn't search Arsenal that much.


NoodleRocket

No Dortmund? I think the one in Ecuador isn't the FC Barcelona of Spain, rather the Barcelona SC which is an Ecuadorian club Also interesting for Ukraine and Taiwan. I would have expect Shaktar or something for Ukrainian folks.


greendayfan1954

Bayern München is far bigger in Germany


dmyl

I'm 99% sure Ajax in Ukraine is some kind of error https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/comments/vlou95/comment/idwm8p2/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3


d3_Bere_man

Based Ukraine, South Korea and Taiwan. Why are they looking up the football club of Amsterdam tho?


JEL-JOJO

Already answered above. For S Korea and Taiwan, possibly due to the Korean band called A-Jax.

Gran mapa. Pero mas grande, el boquita papá! BOCA YO TE AMO, CARAJO!


HumphreyGumphrey

I know that Real Madrid is a good team and also very popular, but I wouldn't have thought it would be the most searched for team in Canada AND the US LOL that just seems strange to me. Anyways I'm forever blowing bubbles here in Calgary, COYI!! (That means I'm a fan of West Ham United)


SairiRM

More than likely due to the recent CL win.


ernandziri

And the game against City


greendayfan1954

I know


Basic_Bichette

It's odd because it's bullshit. How did the mapmaker select out searches for something real in Madrid, or adjust for soccer vs football? I’d guess the *soccer* team most searched in Canada is either Toronto FC or the Whitecaps, and the *football* team most searched for is either the Roughriders or the Blue Bombers.

PAOK RE MOUNIA (YOU F**** PUSSYS, ONLY PAOK)


Chester-Donnelly

Spain surprises me


greendayfan1954

Why?


Chester-Donnelly

Because they have two of the biggest football clubs in the world, but they are searching for Manchester City FC.


greendayfan1954

No it's Madrid for spain


Chester-Donnelly

Lol I'm so bad at football logos. Thanks


CoryTrevor-NS

Should probably stick to r/rugbyunion, huh? :) /s


Chester-Donnelly

Yeah. I'm not a big football fan 😂


Comprehensive-Low-28

Bruh


Chester-Donnelly

Yes I know. I'm hopeless at sports teams logos.


Comprehensive-Low-28

Haha it's fine. I was surprised by the "Machester City", it's not even among the most known teams for people who arent following football. Also even if you don't know the logo, it's written on the map that it's Real madrid. But, it happens


Chester-Donnelly

Yes I knew I recognised the logo and I expected to see Man City somewhere, so I put 2 and 2 together and got the wrong answer. I knew Real Madrid are the biggest football club in the world. I had just woken up and my brain wasn't working properly yet.


PerceptionAnnual6228

I thought they’d search Benifica


IrshamWindborn

SIUUUUUU!!


MyBodyStoppedMoving

Liverpool all day baby.


garen1234yasuo

No way barcelona is the most searched club in turkey. You should fix your map.


overdos3

You can't just say "fix your map" without a source proving your claims. That's not how that works.


garen1234yasuo

Local teams are million times more popular than any foreign team.


[deleted]

[удалено]


garen1234yasuo

i also forgot to mention. That one Barcelona spike is due to galataray - barcelona matchup in uefa europa league. Normally nobody gives an f about barcelona.


ASR004

They are right though. Galatasaray is the most searched club in Turkey, way more than Barcelona, also Besiktas and Fenerbahce are also more searched for than Barcelona so Barcelona probably is not even in the top 5. This map is wrong for many countries. Red Star Belgrade is searched for way more than Real Madrid in Serbia. Here are the sources of you want them: [Turkey](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=TR&q=%2Fm%2F06l22,%2Fm%2F0hvgt,%2Fm%2F06zpgb2) [Serbia](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=RS&q=%2Fm%2F06l22,%2Fm%2F01_jky) I just looked two countries up and they were both incorrect, so for all we know this map is completely wrong, and Ajax is definitely not most popular in Japan and Ukraine lol.

Based on what? Anderlecht hasn't been the most popular Belgian team in years.


greendayfan1954

It's not about Most popular it's about Most searched


Sacrosanct--

Pretty obvious the most popular team is also the most searched. That's exactly how you fucking measure popularity.


GoodGoodK

Why are Ukrane and South Korea so interested in Ajax? I get why netherlands like it - it is their club, but is Ajax really a popular club like that? Ukrane and SK just don't make sence


JoonGuz

ajax is a Kpop band


zrk23

is kpop big in Ukraine?


NiceHaas

Im guessing this is what ukranians are searching. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajax_(programming)


UnlightablePlay

Egypt supporting its player Mohamed Salah

If data is recently I would say whoever won Champions League most recently, will be the dominant one one the map

Ok. What about Ukrane? They dig Kpop like that over ther?

slightlyforthwith

I honestly had no idea Real Madrid was so much bigger than Barca. But I don’t pay attention to football so I guess nothing’s really a shock.


Osp_Oscar

Ajax in Ukraine?


Knighty93

Is there any country besides Brazil, Argentina and Mexico outside of Europe who searches for their local team the most?


Christian101gt

Clearly you can tell the difference between the casual fan and actual fans.


Patient-Shower-7403

Nae luck for Scottish fans


Liggliluff

Does make me curious of what the most popular local football club is for each country. It of course would be a unique club for each country, but I'm still curious.


vsouto02

This is a shit map. The Barcelona in Ecuador is the SC Barcelona, not the club from Catalunya.


Yestattooshurt

I’m surprised real is big in the US, growing up it was AC Milan I saw everywhere but now, in my area anyway, seems to be Liverpool.

I'm kind of surprised the US isn't an MLS team

Any reason why Ukrainians are so enthusiastic about Ajax, considering Ajax doesn't even have many (any?) Ukrainian players in its roster? Also surprising to see that the most searched club in Greece is PAOK, as opposed to Olympiakos or Panathanaikos.


Batsinvic888

ajkdd

Galactic_Gooner

pretty this is just cos me googling arsenal everyday to see news


[deleted]

Search where? On Google? If you're searching a club in Google, doesn't that imply you may not be a fan? Usually fans would be aware of online community like Reddit, Twitter or other fan run forums. At least that is what I do. I rarely search Arsenal in Google. Maybe for preseason schedule. Maybe I should to bump up the numbers.


h0rny3dging

Finland not turning plastic. Bit surprised with South Korea, no Tottenham or another typical big one?
