Reasons to Watch the World Cup

Posted by Scott Simonsen

3 Reasons You Should Be PUMPED For The World Cup In 2018

Are you having trouble getting into the excitement of the World Cup?  It's understandable if you are not a soccer fan, but consider that it is the most watched event in the world for good reason.  Some of the most amazing and unexpected things can happen in the World Cup. As the most watched event in the world, there are some huge reasons why you should be excited to watch the 2018 World Cup in Russia!

1. The haircuts

This is honestly a funny one because there are haircuts that are extraordinary, ordinary and down-right ugly. Of course, this one is down there. This was Ronaldo (no, not the Portuguese one, the Brazilian one) during a World Cup game with Brazil before he retired. He shocked the world with his haircut, as nobody expected him to embarrass himself like that.

2. The goals

Of course, could not have forgotten about one of the greatest goals in the history of the sport. Goals are what starts the fire in every fan's heart as well as the players'. Some players even try to give a little of their flair to the fans to make matters interesting. From amazing crosses into the penalty box, to beautiful goal conversions, this is what futbol is about. This is what the World Cup is about.

3.) The Celebrations

We have all seen them in every sport. The celebration is what gives the fans the other half of the thrill after the goal. There have been some unique celebrations over the course of history in futbol like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's signature front flip and of course, one of the first celebrations ever by Roger Milla, dancing by the corner flag. Some celebrations can be comedic and others can be for an important cause.
