Just your average $20 million dollar race

First Skelly and then Saudi Crown...that last 50 yards hasn't been my friend today.

Full kudos to Senor Buscador though, that was exciting!

I just woke up, HOW IN THE WORLD ARGENTINA LOST??

[didalexiabreakupwitholgayet]

Do you know if alexia’s trip to Saudi Arabia (I saw her 🥹) had to do with the her new foundation? Cause she’s been to a girls soccer academy there.

no, it was a fifa-related meeting. according to media reports, alexia was invited to jeddah for a meeting with gianni infantino to discuss the evolution of women’s football, and the possibility of creating a women’s club world cup was one of the agenda topics. fifa wanted input from the players, including alexia. and she also got the opportunity to attend the men's club world cup. well, now we do have a club world cup for women starting in 2026!

but that's so great that you got to see her. given the growth of football in saudi arabia, perhaps that may be a location in the future. dream big, anon!

HOW IT STARTED:

HOW IT'S GOING:

[sarroora]

I hope yall watching the World Cup shenanigans on TikTok

Because it’s glorious.

Like it’s such a breath of CLEAN, FRESH air when you watch something through channels that aren’t completely defiled to hell and back by hypocritical and racist western media. 

Just simply, watching the people have the time of their lives, exploring a new culture, trying to speak each other’s languages, learning each other’s dances, etc. just fills me with so much hope and joy. 

I have to limit my use of the app so it doesn’t take over my life BUT THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE FUNNIEST AND LOVIELIEST THINGS I SAW:

JungKookie and the Kookies (BTS)

Foreigners discovering Arabian beauty up close? Like so many people are falling in love with the Qatari artist Fahad Al-Kubaisi

Saudian fan reactions going absolutely BONKERS, [2]

The #WhereIsMessiGuy. Some people find him annoying. Others find him hilarious. He keeps crashing news reports. You be the judge

Amazing mishmash of dances from different cultures after matches.

Fans trying to talk to each other and obviously not understanding anything the other is saying and resigning to signing is one of the funniest things I’ve seen this week

The guy casually telling his boss he won’t be in for work the next day on TV and the journalist losing it 

Saudians and Japanese sword/katana fighting each other in the street

The Saudian and Japanese wins spurred a million memes of pure hilarity. Oh, and everyone wants a Saudia / Japan final showdown. Anime Style!

The fact that middle eastern fans are tagging the Japanese team ‘The Grandchildren of Captain Tsubasa’ sent me

The Sassy Prince becoming an internet celebrity overnight. I feel bad about this one tho. I hope the kid’s ok and keeps his privacy. Chinese fans are literally drawing fanart of him

Men being super invested in the traditional Qatari garb and headgear is super cool. So many reels of foreigners learning how to wear it properly and walking around with it through the city

THE LATIN AMERICAN FANS ARE ABSOLUTE DARLINGS

SO ARE THE ASIAN FANS. 

AFRICAN, ASIAN and LATIN AMERICAN FANS ARE GETTING ALONG AMAZINGLY. SO GOOD TOGETHER IN SPITE OF THE LANGUAGE BARRIER!

THE BRAZILIANS ARE HAVING THE TIME OF THEIR LIVES. Oh, and they ‘kidnapped’ an Arabian reporter while celebrating. He was taken away on their shoulders, laughing his head off

Closeup of a player waving to his fans. Grown men becoming 5 again and waving back so joyfully <3

Roleplaying in the streets

The endearing videos of tourists walking around Doha at 2:00am, marveling at the safety and peace of the city. It’s true, Qatar is extremely safe even late at night

Egyptian memes living vicariously through Saudia coz we weren’t eligible this time

People taking videos of the public bathrooms and clean and LUXUROIUSLY DESIGNED they are. LISTEN THE BATHROOMS LOOKED LIKE A 7-STAR HOTEL BATHROOM WHAT

#IsraelLeftOnReadIRL tag. A lot of reports of people from various countries refusing to do interviews with Israeli news reporters just further proves that governments do not really mirror the true sentiment of the individual. Governments strive to maintain diplomatic relations, but I have so much respect for based individuals who don’t sell out on their personal morals

(I’m aware that because of how TikTok works geographically, a lotta people on the western side of the world may not be getting a lot of this stuff. If you’d like me to send some your way, just let me know and I can share through my TikTok.)
