In Milan for a stag do in April this year, went to A C V Catania - a great game that finished 2 - 2 with A C coming back from 0 - 2 down.

I've never been in a more crazy atmosphere in my life. Flares, flair, weed, explosives, fighting, racism, and not one single steward. Oh and it only cost €16!

Hibernians (malta) V Rapid Vienna I think it was a Champions league game plus a tournament of few teams

I saw Ajax ( with a young Wesley Sneijder ) play FC Twente , when i was in Amsterdam some years back .

Very impressed with the Amsterdam Arena , and strangely impressed with some brown cake that i had in a cafe , earlier in the day .

Seen a few games while on holiday in Cyprus. The best was Anorthosis v Inter Milan in the Champions League the season before last. The Cypriot team came back from 1-3 to draw 3-3. Great atmosphere with flares and flags and noise.

Went to Barcelona in March and popped into the Neu Camp as I was at a loose end.
 




Recent good ones:-

Siena v Milan (Serie A)
Portugal v Denmark (World Cup Qualifier)
Porto v Fenerbahçe (Champions League)
Atlético Madrid v Sevilla (La Liga)
Sevilla v Atromitos (UEFA Cup)

Can Middlesbrough v Brighton & Hove Albion and Hartlepool United v Brighton & Hove Albion count? We didn't come home between the two games, so it must have been a holiday.

I sort of saw Leverkusen vs Muenchen 1860 play once. I had food poisoning, so I spent most of my time in the toilets. I remember hearing English voices from the cubicle.
