It is just an expression that comes from bullfighting. When the "toreador" or "torero" make a good pass on the bull the public screams Ole. thats's where it came to football.

As you may know, soccer is a world sport and very popular in South America, where they speak Spanish and Portuguese, as well as in Europe, where both of the mother countries of these languages are located. In Spanish, the word 'Olé!' has for a long time been used to express approval at big events, such as bull-fighting. So the rest of the footballing world picked up on this word once the Spanish-speaking countries started using it. It's a nice short word to use to express your support and approval of your chosen team, especially when they've just scored an attractive goal.

ole ole ole ole ohhh-le ohhhh-le! in soccer the fans sing certain songs and have nice chants during games. some songs are funny and profanity laced but funny. there are team songs and also national chants. rival teams dedicate all sorts of songs to the opposing team's players and mothers.

That chant is said when a certain team, lets say for example, todays game; Mexico vs. Angola, Say if Mexico had the ball and they were passing the ball back and forth without getting it taken away by the opposite team, each time the ball gets passed you hear "ole" if u have noticed. Since it gets passed without it being taken away. Then when it is taken away obviously the chant stops

Ole is called out when the coach wants you to do a spin move with the ball. It's a "code" name for Maradona, a soccer offensive move.

Its origin is perhaps from the Arabians that is wa-llah (to show admiration to God). Slowly over the years, the Spanish adopted it and is now transformed to ole. Ole is just an expression to show your admiration.
