Osijek–Rijeka derby (Croatian: derbi Osijek – Rijeka) is the name given to matches between NK Osijek and HNK Rijeka. On Croatian First Football League all-time table Rijeka and Osijek are on the third and fourth place. Rijeka is the third-most successful Croatian football club, having won one Croatian First Football League title, six Croatian Football Cups, two Yugoslav Cups, one Croatian Football Super Cup and the 1977–78 Balkans Cup. Osijek won one Croatian Football Cup.

Rijeka and Osijek are with Dinamo Zagreb and Hajduk Split the only four clubs that have never been relegated from the Croatian First League.

Osijek and Rijeka are third and fourth best supported football clubs in Croatia. Osijek is supported by 5% and Rijeka by 4% of population.[1]

The teams are supported by their ultras groups called Armada Rijeka and Kohorta Osijek.

Supporters

[edit]

Armada is football ultras group that support HNK Rijeka. They also support Rijeka's other sports clubs, such as RK Zamet (handball), Primorje EB (waterpolo) and KK Kvarner 2010 (basketball).[citation needed]

The name Armada was given in 1987 at a bar in the "Ri" shopping mall in Rijeka, and the first game attended by the Armada was the Final of the Yugoslav football cup against Hajduk Split in Belgrade on 9 May 1987. The newly formed supporters group named themselves after the Spanish Armada because of the strength they showed in their support. Their fiercest rivals are BBB (Bad Blue Boys), Torcida and Kohorta.[citation needed]

At home games, Armada members gather in the west stand at Stadion Kantrida and in the last few years in the north stand of Stadion Rujevica, from where they fiercely support their club. They also regularly support Rijeka in the club's away games. They regularly display choreographies and light up flares.[citation needed]

Their mottos are: Sami protiv svih - Alone against everybody, and Krepat, ma ne molat - Die but not give up. Armada's mascot is a shark.[citation needed]

Kohorta Osijek is a group of supporters of Croatian soccer club NK Osijek. During the soccer match it is located on the southeast and east stands of the Gradski vrt stadium in Osijek.[citation needed]
