Given how much Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian, Portuguese, Spanish, etc. music I watch, my algorithm shows me absolutely everything that happens in a line from Lisbon from Istanbul.
The main thing I've realized watching all the videos of fans marching through the streets is that I can instantly tell St. Louis from Toronto because everything in St. Louis is just so far apart. There really is a striking difference in (the level of) urban planning that I never really noticed before.
Watched a fascinating video series about which World Cup teams have the most players born in the country they represent. And in their group of four, Canada was one of the highest. Lots of lovely stories of players who came as refugees, etc. Meanwhile, Bosnia had the least, but almost all of those being the children of parents who fled the country in the 1990s. Germany, Austria, United States, etc.
