Alexander Skarsgård has a lot of love for his favorite team!

The True Blood hunk recently led the crowd at a Swedish soccer game in a lively chant for the Hammarby Sports Club players. Wearing the team's colors—green and white—the 37-year-old native Swede was quite passionate (and possibly looking a bit tipsy, but who's to say he wasn't just excited?) as he rallied fans together.

According to several YouTube commenters, Alexander tells someone in the crowd they can "go to hell," before asking fans who is the most beautiful (Hammarby), the most victorious (Hammarby) and the best (Hammarby). One commenter points out that it "sounds crazy in English, but [sounds] much better in swedish:)"

He talked to TV Guide in 2010 about his love for the team, saying, "I'm a huge fan of football—or soccer as you guys call it. Hammarby's the name of the team. They're form the dirty south of Stockholm. We're gonna get relegated now. We're not gonna play in the Swedish premiere league next year. We're that bad. That's life as a Hammarby fan—it's kind of like, well, there's always next year."

Hey, if there's a chance of Mr. Skarsgård showing up at a game, count us in as Hammarby supporters, too!
