Why the immensely large fanbase then? I’m not Brazilian, so how does it work when you come from a city like 4+ teams, how do you pick who you support and why are Corinthians #1? Is it like London where ppl often go with their neighbourhoods? Or simply whoever is winning the most at the moment? (The abundance of united fans in London)
Corinthians was founded by industrial workers in sao paulo, at the time the biggest industrial center of latin america, so it had a large working class appeal back in the day.
