there is hardly any other country in the world where football is a matter of life or death. as i found out on the very day of the 2022 world cup final invoice was situs when big emotions came to town, washing away everything else. but why? i came here to window site is to find out more about this extreme form of passion, a football se equal upon excellence. yeah, but no follow, but i forget it. see no them but adamant about it. i don't you up with what about thought? i've been, you know, what does this tell us about fandom as a whole? why are people football fan? what is the real power for? chapter one, the day of the final well, the day started quietly thousands gathered in parts to watch the final against

france on giant screens. they came to cheer for argentina, the 1st indicator of a religion. their spiritual leader is a jesus like figure. there are some fans want argentina to win because of just one man. lucky. not but amazing of that which i'm about. amazing. i wonder is it all about this still boy, that about the whole g messy, the messiah attracted football fans from all over that day. take this guy from australia. it doesn't matter where we are from all over the world except for france, we just want to say messy with about cup or these folks from israel. why do you all where messy jersey, because of the god measure, the order of hold bar in the heart of the messy alone is a religion, it seems but not just him as the rest of the day would show. oh, i defend

spelt it out. the argentinian national anthem as if there were no to morrow and soon till an excitement penalty for argentina. with wow, complete may in the air gets filled with some kind of foam. the passion is real. but then also these scenes, france come back from being to nail down, out of nowhere, grown up people in despair, in tears, in deep prostration voodoo like gestures, from screams of joy, to a feeling that death is eman. ah, but wait. 3 to 2

argentina and extra time. and these fellows, roy, like they only will again the day their kids will be born. the passion is not just real but even somewhat unreal. there is another goal for france, penalties, nail biting suspense until this shot delivered margin. tina the one with no, what we're gonna do is we're going to go there because i've been available already

. i believe argentina's triumph sparked an atmosphere reminiscent of a revolution. millions flocked towards the city's heart, the obelisk ah, it was infectious. i felt like singing along and hugging random people historic day, but in the middle of all these lunatics, i thought again, how on earth can football be the spark for all this? let's 1st as the argentinians and then let's see if there is any relevance for the rest of humanity to chapter to the day after public transport was back gone. and so was life. the party seemed to have ended, although the streets were looking very hung over. still, this seems to be a good moment to ask people with a bit of this sense maybe why yesterday was armageddon. the 1st him comes from

a prolific argentinian football writer madison la moda, yet ohio. she's in a lucky position because she witnessed all 3 argentinian world subtitles so far. 1978. 19862022. i'm just lenient kona boy, but a say it but other than that a so you know, get their muscle we. i la la like in my say and i beat them masula. he come in this bice, the let the i'm in the hallway and let the omen them away will come when i see on go now. bless young boys had a need on the him would jump out of the head moon, the dog we've had in this get that i had football a little rattle a because through internet they ca fund the caea. she's a get a though when yoni they indiana santa argentina in fact has the 2nd largest number of immigrants in the world. second only to the united states ahead of countries such as canada, brazil, and australia. argentina saw massive waves of immigration in the 19th and 20th

centuries. baton gold became the dance of all the different folks that had newly arrived. but other than that, this melting pot often lacked a common denominator. and this is where football came in. as a national symbol, often stronger than anything else in the country and food afflict. oak, we are gonna chico one at on do. but i thought really good to me because it didn't again, daniel physically, what they did was, i mean like, you know, like i said, you're very sick when i come sit up. it's sort of funny cuz you're on the go to the other tended i left the sympathetic details at the new wi but, but be that it all good on that. a master deanna those every could. but it all. if it was that i fed that can know that they oh, i get a hold done. not in it. i don't want to. yeah. i met him out from france and went to says her country last to 2020 to final a totally minority. and she still felt like singing along with the champions

settings. i'm pretty much we can use additional national tiddle. my job was chance home enough formats from not massive amounts of social and i you for long term match it up to susan's baby. so my book righty from so okay. one point has been made so far, so passion, it was a feeling of unity in argentina, videos and luckily go to get a handy. nancy e t lane, all of that out. a lini agonal boy exploded in. not them, but i know visual football, elected by ease, that got us in the doorway. liliana, unless you should go in element, they will not go 2nd noble. i'm on the almost say nol medically, but bands i get the nino india a note, or michael, although it is generally let him fina al moon know think on the title, good as ordinance in football was introduced to argentina in the 2nd half of the 19th century by of course, british immigrants,

the 1st league was contested in 1891, the oldest league in the world outside of great britain. the epic argentinean figure is diego maribel 9 lunel may see, did not grow out of a country with no football tradition. but when speaking to argentinians, there are also other explanations to be heard of boy yell genesee delos hembry allegory ascii, not an eagle. dan does now say no trail. bobo, the phone. i italy, i guess they al al dandy got e. shana lena he came boil doesn't want to live long enough, we'll add it again. i said honestly dallas oh, but up let us say he added and dana was i used to play boss. have a got a got enough there are many open ruins in argentina. one, for example, if the military dictatorship, the country live through from 1976 to 1983, while people are being killed by the regime, argentina one, their home world cup in 1978. another wound repeated economic crises hitting the

country hard. football can help provide role models on how to survive. argentina's inflation reached the highest peak in decades in 2022. but it is a problem that has been around for a long time already in 2001. there was a severe crisis. people took to the streets and looted supermarkets, now cove, it in russia's war against ukraine has made an already difficult situation. worse for out of 10 argentinians live below the poverty line during the world cup and katara, florida. then a one time pass and that they hit us. yeah. and a that said when the thought i shall for you all are not a for them the i for india. if i said, if you know mom now, and i don't know of any more. thank you boy. hey, i'm getting bobo and cool side. i thought it wasn't like chapter 3. let's dive a bit deeper. still, if possible. maybe the mayhem in argentina when they, when the world cup tells us even more,

more about the importance of $22.00 people chasing a ball around on a field. does football also tap into national sac? he's outside of argentina. i guess if you look closely enough. yes, take germany, host up to 2006 world co, a country that could finally feel comfortable it waving its own flag again. 60 years after it set the world on fire. take france in 1998 woke up house and winners when it celebrated its own diversity as an immigrant country. ah. or take morocco in 2022. a team that served as a sort of pan or radian source of pride, appealing to an entire region and to many around the world. but still, let's not exaggerate the power of football and football a. but i fully hamlin tackles analysis here in la gay exceed their bid on i so
