Italy

No other sport can inspire the kind of excitement that Football does. So photos captured at World Cup events and similar tournaments help showcase the unique bond that the fans share. Even separated by different countries, national colors, and brand identities, they all have one thing in common–an unrelenting passion for soccer.

That makes it sadder that fans like this girl would be around to witness Italy participate in Qatar 2022. That loss is made all the more poignant because Italy last appeared at a World Cup event in 2014 when this photo was taken. Italy finished 11th in the 2022 standings.
