Soccer Unites Us All
The purpose of FIFA is to unite national soccer associations. This unity is touted as a great thing because it acts as governing body for the world’s most popular sport. However, some people see a huge irony in that fact, especially when it comes to the violent behavior of fans. Soccer does bring people together like nothing else, but probably not in the way FIFA wants.
Soccer fans get wild sometimes. Depending on whether their team wins or loses, riots and rowdy behavior can break out on the streets. Someone’s team won the World Cup? Time to celebrate with a riot! Another team lost? Time to riot again! FIFA is technically not wrong. Rowdy fans are, in fact, united in their love of destruction.
