Wait…so someone noticed that not all football players are white and decided that was important enough for an entire article?

I guess the people who find this interesting are also the people who are shocked to discover that minorities can also be doctors, lawyers, engineers, or fucking ballet dancers.

What year is it?(/quote)

No, I think it was more up to you to see what kind of people are in the country to represent the country. In Serbia there are not many black people, so in the team you will hardly find any black people. Brazil obviously has a mix… Spain is a country with white people, etc., etc.
“So far, most countries in the world have teams that racially represent their people. Black Africans, Asians, Arabs and Eastern Europeans (God bless them) can support teams that reflect them 100%. White people in Australia and New Zealand can still proudly support a team that looks like them. – I’m Serbian, the day there are about 5-6 blacks in this team… well, that’s not really a racial representation of Serbia.

Likewise: “As we look at all 32 teams, we can learn some lessons in terms of race, immigration and demographics. Because of immigration, the face of Western Europe is changing, and this is reflected in the composition of football teams which used to be all-white even in the 1990s.
“England won their only World Cup in 1966 with an all-white team, but they may be going the way of France. They started with a slim majority of white against black in their first round match. They may start 7 white for the next match, but the team has a black tendency. Maybe if England are knocked out of the tournament in the first round it will change things. The team was disappointed in the first round draw against the United States. »

It’s like if you looked at an English football team, you would think it was all white people… because the English are mostly white, but if there are black people on the team, that obviously makes the frame racially different team.

I just think what they’re saying is that the black people on this white team are doing well. And that’s why some teams now have more black players than usual.
Maybe all the good black players have been recruited into these teams and are not representing Africa.

At the same time, even though the all-black teams are doing pretty poorly, not to say they’re bad at soccer…there’s obviously something missing here.

Someone is just pointing out the differences in football and how teams change.
Again: “As we look at all 32 teams, we can learn some lessons in terms of race, immigration and demographics. Due to immigration, the face of Western Europe is changing, and this is reflected in the composition of football teams which, until the 1990s, were entirely white.”

I feel like everyone jumped on a racism map here or something?
