This rivalry started in 2009 when Tractor Sazi returned to first tier of Iranian football league after 8 years and their fans had passion about this event. for the first time a club except Esteghlal and Persepolis had too much fans in many of Iran's stadiums including Azadi, Esteghlal and Persepolis home ground. Their passion was so great that the Navad TV show arranged a vote quiz about the hottest fans in Iran and Tractor Sazi became first. Their coach Faraz Kamalvand declared on that program "Our fans are most popular fans in Iran too." This caused on other night Navad program arranged a vote quiz about the most popular fans in Iran and Tractor Sazi became third after Persepolis and Esteghlal. their fans didn't accept this result and protested and also looked Esteghlal and Persepolis as a Rival. On the other hand, with Tractor getting stronger, the rivalry between them and Tehran giants became more intense and Tractor won many times in Azadi stadium, especially against Esteghlal. In the years after that this rivalry was a bit overwhelmed by violence from both fans.
