Mostly a cultural thing. For someone who lives in a football-centric country, many people’s lives revolve around football. They go to every game, friendships have broken down because of teams, families have split up, etc. Okay, that might be a little hyperbolic, but you know what I mean, right? Fans are not made, they are born and raised in families of fans, which perpetuates it for future generations…I believe this is the truth for all competitive sports, in America, they have just received the generational baggage from other sports, as we did. soccer.
Besides, if people don’t like football, the World Cup is probably the worst time to try to get them into it. Although he displays a level of skill and drama not commonly found in most local leagues; during the World Cup months, football is omnipresent… It’s like trying to make someone like food by shoving kilos down their throat, for days…
