Kickoff Tales: Around the World is a podcast that shares personal stories of football match experiences from different countries.
As a passionate fan of the beautiful game I aim to give you insights into how exciting traveling to new places - or even a weekend at home - can be when a football match is part of the plan.
Each game day offers a unique atmosphere and I take you on a journey to discover what it’s like to visit various clubs and stadiums.

✈️🇨🇭 This time the journey took me straight into the frozen heart of Switzerland — Bern, home of BSC Young Boys.
🚲 From riding a half-broken bike through the icy streets, to warming up with beers before kickoff, and then stepping into a stadium that once hosted the famous Miracle of Bern — this trip had everything.
🔥 Inside, the atmosphere was wild: home fans with stunning choreography, away ultras lighting flares dangerously close, and chants that made it feel more like a Bundesliga clash than a Swiss league game. Out on the pitch, it was a freezing battle with chances, drama, and… well, no goals in the end. But trust me, the experience was unforgettable.
So grab your hot wine, layer up, and let me take you to a night where history, passion, and the biting cold all collided in the Swiss capital.

🍽️ Try the legendary Swedish meatballs
🎟️ Catch a Djurgården match
What I got? 🔥 WAY more than expected. From a quiet city morning to electric stadium vibes, this was the first time I truly felt that thrill of chasing football abroad ✈️⚽ — and it was magic.
