I don’t understand where is the joke in haram ball
As described, Real mainly during Jose Mourinho era, but also 2014-2018 invented haramball. All that offensive talent in the squad and they play defensive, dirty football to scam counter attack or set piece goal. Prime example was the UCL final against Liverpool in 2018, they injured Liverpool’s best player Mo Salah by judo slamming him into the ground, dislocating his shoulder, concussing Liverpool’s goalkeeper, and won 3-1. In the run up they had several controversial ref decisions going for them as well.
So there’s no islamophobia in the name? Wow,
Not at all, many fans, including influencers from Muslim background actually use it to describe anti-football tactics on social media. It is even officially defined on wikipedia
People have been calling Mikel Arteta “Artetanyahu” for doing warcrime against the beautiful game, playing defensive haramball with 4 centrebacks and 3 defensive mids, nicking goals through corners. Milos Kerkez the Liverpool left-back got subbed off at minute 38th last week because he played horribly and people been calling him “Charlie Kerkez” because he “died.” Kids these days are brutal.
