In this episode, we delve into the psychology of football derbies from three perspectives: a player, a coach, and a fan. How do all three deal with the emotional intensity, pressure and expectations, motivation and mindset, and the emotions of playing against your biggest rival?

Whether you're on the pitch, in the dugout, or the stands, derbies are more than just games; they are cultural events that ignite passion, shape identities, and create lasting memories. We examine how players stay focused under pressure, how coaches develop strategies amidst chaos, and how fans' intense loyalty elevates the game's atmosphere.

These elements contribute to making derbies profoundly impactful experiences for everyone involved.
