Initiating a conversation on soccer, or football as it is called in much of the world, is a fast way to spark discussion and opinion sharing with complete strangers around the globe. The mention of a single team can inspire long debate on statistics, rivalries and key games. Soccer is undoubtedly the most widely watched and enjoyed sport on the planet, but does it bring the global community together?

Most soccer followers are very loyal and passionate regarding their favorite teams, but most fans can easily express an opinion on teams from around the world. The beauty of soccer is that the premier leagues from far reaching countries have inspired global fans to unite in support of their favorite players and teams. Fans from all over the world rally behind internationally famous soccer stars regardless of heritage, race or other isolating discriminations. Every four years, the World Cup inspires countries around the globe to rally behind their national teams in a multicultural celebration of the sport.

Soccer is not only a much loved sport, it is an ever growing link between cultures and people across the globe. People always transcend nationality, geography and even language barriers to talk about soccer.
