Football in Hamburg

Organized football in Hamburg has a long tradition dating back to the 1890s. Since 1919, when Hamburger SV was founded, this club has significantly shaped and dominated the city's football scene. FC St. Pauli is Hamburger SV's biggest rival. The football club St. Pauli von 1910 e.V., commonly known as FC St. Pauli, is a sports organization based in the St. Pauli district of Hamburg. It was founded on May 15, 1910. The term "Hamburg derby" is used to describe matches between these two football clubs. Due to the fact that the teams involved often play in different leagues, the Hamburg derby doesn't occur very frequently.
