Tifo banners are visually striking displays held up by fans in football stadiums, originating from Italy and southern Europe and now common across the continent. These banners are planned and created by supporter clubs to show dedication to their team, players, or convey a message. They often feature club colors and can be huge mosaics or images created by fans holding up colored material.
Clubs sometimes participate in the planning of tifos, as seen with Manchester United creating one before a Europa League match. Aston Villa fans have showcased unique tifo banners during their Champions League matches this season, including one with Ozzy Osbourne. Borussia Dortmund's Yellow Wall is famous for its tifos, which can also be used to mock opponents, like when Manchester City fans referenced Real Madrid during a match in February. Tifos are a creative way for fans to express support and loyalty, contributing to the atmosphere and team motivation in matches.
