Abstract

The emergence of the popular hooligans of the Sporting Cristal club called Extremo Celeste was due to a generational struggle that occurred at the end of the eighties, in which the group called the founders made up of adolescents and young people decided to separate from the old “hoolligans“ located in the grandstand from the east with the aim of being able to experience freedom, growth, recognition by the rival bars and generate a link between the soccer players and the fans. This generational rupture is based on new criteria of understanding of soccer, entertainment and violence as concepts articulated within the discourse of Lima’s hoolligans.
