The Fan Championship is a high-energy competition show that brings football fans face to face — not on the field, but in a battle of loyalty, knowledge, and pure passion for their favorite teams.
In each episode, two groups of devoted supporters represent rival football clubs. Each team is led by a celebrity captain — a familiar face from the world of entertainment or sports — who guides them through a series of unique challenges.
The fan “matches” are elimination rounds, with the winning team advancing further in the tournament.
The challenges test much more than football trivia — they also measure persuasive skills, originality, boldness, creativity, and even musical talent. From heated debates to unexpected stunts, the show reveals how far a true fan will go to defend their club’s honor.
Viewers play an active role too, voting to decide which team deserves to move on to the next round.
The Fan Championship is an original format created by Zucchero Media, hosted by Gina Pistol and Bogdan Talașman, and aired on Prima TV in 2007.
