And we begin, now if unmasking the secrets that there is behind the nicknames of the Real Madrid
We save time with the most obvious, first: "The Whites"
Nickname that do not have a lot of science, as it has to  to the traditional uniform of the Spanish club
However, from here it comes from another appellative for this popular team and is "The Merengues"
Inspired by the colour of the dessert done with egg and sugar
It says  that this nickname began  to use in the press written Spanish in the year 1913
although the one who popularised it was the remembered journalist Matías Prats Cañete
that began it to use in the 40's in his transmissions of radio.
Another nickname that goes out of the colour of the clothing of the team is "The White House"
pseudonym that compares to the club with the famous house of government of the United States
because, both represent important centres of economic power, that generally with money look for to impose in front of his rivals
But further of the colours, exist other nicknames with histories more curious
The first of them: "The Vikingos", appellative whose origin has two versions
The first comes of the English newspaper "The Times"
The newspaper reviewed the conquest of the fifth Cup of Europe of the Real Madrid on the Eintracht Frankfurt 7 - 3 in 1960.
In that writing, compared  to the Spanish team with the vikingos
as these, to the equal that the club, strolled  in Europe dominating everything to his step.
The another version indicates that in the years 70´s
the club won  this nickname by the high number of German and Danish players that played there in that moment.
Like the Germans Nezter, Breitner, Stielike and the Danish Jensen
Some say that this nickname popularised it the followers of the Atlético de Madrid of pejorative form
in reply to the nickname that put them the madridistas to them, which went : "The Indians"
since in these years the club "Colchonero" had several South American players in his rows
although with the happen of the time both fans were accepting proudly these nicknames
Finally, the most recent appellative of the Real Madrid is "The Galactics"
that comes of the first stage of Florentino Pérez like president of the team
where the club did  popular for hiring to several stars
as year after year the president reinforced to the team with a top and media player
with the eagerness to win all the possible cups.
We follow with another giant club with a lot of nicknames: Bayern Munich
loved and hated, has won  diverse appellatives for being the example and the envy of a lot of teams
We will begin by the easiest to deduce, and whose origin remits  to the popular vulgo
First: "The Bavarians", or as they say the Germany "Die Bayern"
for being the most famous team of the State of Baviera
Of the same way goes out the other appellative: "The Giants of Baviera"
by his wife and important palmares in the German and world-wide football
Of equal form knows him  like "The south Star"
this by the reason that the State of Baviera finds  in the south of Germany
leaving the location and the prestige of the team, another nickname, although no so popular is "The Reds"
appellative that has accompanied them from the first days of the club
some versions say that this originated  when in his starts the club to have a field and some own installations
joined  to the Munchen Sport Club in 1906
where one of the conditions of the fusion was that the team changed his black pants by the reds
In the country Teutonic also knows him  like the team "Breaks records"
nickname that has for being a so winning team that has broken big quantity of statistics
like the greater series of victories in the Bundesliga and the greater number of cups in Germany
Finally there are other nicknames that in his moment were very popular
one of them was the FC Hollywood, whose origin has two versions
the first has to see with the dramas of film that lived the club in one of his worst moments
specifically in the decades of the 30´s and 40´s , as in these years the team was pursued by the nazis
since so much his president like coach were of Jewish origin
even the Bavarian club by the bad results descended to the "Gauliga", a regional league of the period
The another version of the nickname of FC Holllywood
has to see with the fact that in the decade of the 90´s the players of the team appeared more in magazines of gossips that in sportive magazines
Finally, in Spain knows him  like "The Black Beast"
because Bayern Munich eliminated Real Madrid many times from the Champions League.
We continue with the nicknames of another big of Europe: Liverpool
that in spite of his popularity, his nicknames do not have big mystery, at least the most popular
since the fans did not complicate , and the main nickname of the club is : "The Reds"
whose origin is by the red colour of his clothing
can that it was not big thing, but is the only English team that can award  this nickname
On the other hand, although they are not the most known
there are other nicknames that handle some sectors of the fans
the first is: "The Scouser"
a colloquial word very used in United Kingdom to do reference to which come from of the city of Liverpool
as of this way call him to the accent of the inhabitants of this city
Another version says that this name comes from of a very popular food in this region
especially between the sailors of the port of the city
Another very local nickname and no so known is "The Kops"
which is due to one of the grandstands of the stadium that calls  "Kop End"
likewise, his fans do call "The Red Army"
for being numerous and by the fidelity that characterises them and gives them pride,
And to close, have to the Juventus, another club whose prestige and popularity give him interesting nicknames
but before going to the most notable, clear those that are more than evident
First we have to "The White and Black"
which, as they are thinking, is due to the colours of the clothing
White that in Italian is "Bianco", and Black  is "Nero"
and whose plural is "Neri"
From the T-shirt of the Juventus also deduces  another nickname of popular origin "The Zebras"
and has to  to the more than notorious seemed of the lines of the T-shirt with the appearance of these nice animals
Now we go with other nicknames
nickname worldwide known "The old lady", in Italian "La Vecchia Signora"
that to understand his origin, have to go to the first years of the Italian club
that was founded by a group of students of Turín (City of Italy) with the name of "Sport Club Juventus"
In his starts, went a club of aristocratic roots, as like other teams of the period had British influences.
However, after a hard economic crisis, the family Agnelli, owner of the group FIAT bought the club.
This did that the Juventus was directed by one of the most important companies in Italy
but to his time, the club began to support  in the working class that worked in the workshops of FIAT
By that then, the workers of the country designated "Old gentlemen" to the aristocrats and employers of the country
By what over time this expression used  to refer  to the club of Turín
with this, his fans wanted to show him his respect to the team
although with the step of the time, the rivals also gave him some tone jokingly to the nickname
since in some places of Italy "The old ladies" do reference to "the madames", owners of the brothels.
And finally we have the appellative of "The Piamontesa Madama"
a very local term, this is due to that Turín is the capital of Piamonte region situated northwest of Italy
and the Madama Palace, known architectural complex situated in the historical centre of the city
besides, the journalist and novelist Giovanni Arpino wrote the poem "Madama Juve" at the beginning of the last century
in honor of the club "Black and White", all of which gave rise to the nickname "Paimontesa Madama"
little known outside of Italy, but rather used in that country.
