Day -982. WorldCup2018.
I was in the mood for a feel-good story today so what better place to look then fifa.com.
And they came up trumps with the wonderful tale of Bhutan playing and
winning the first ever world cup qualifying match, and making it to the
second round. And for a glimpse of the most interesting football stadium
fast forward to 3.20-3.30. Those are some crazy stands.
Curiously though, Fifa posted this beautiful story this week, after
Bhutan had already played a few of their second round matches.
Unfortunately it's not going so well: 0-15 and 0-7 against Qatar and
Hong Kong just a couple of their 5 defeats. But I assume that Fifa just
wanted to go looking for a Bhutan-esque story at a time when the boys
in Zurich needed a hit of positivity.
