🎥 Tequila, fiesta, faces in South Africa... day one’s funniest bits 😂

🎥 Tequila, fiesta, faces in South Africa... day one’s funniest bits 😂The World Cup is already underway. And beyond whatever happens on the pitch, the tournament always leaves behind images that get people talking.

>The opening day was no exception, and we already have moments that will make this World Cup something unique.

Korean brother: you’re Mexican nowThe good relationship between Mexico and South Korea at World Cups was bound to give us some beautiful scenes. And we didn’t have to wait. Before the South Korea-Czechia match, Mexican fans in the Guadalajara fan zone spotted a South Korean supporter and knew exactly what to do: toss him in the air and applaud a country that is almost like a brother to Mexico.

No tequila? No problemNothing goes to waste here. That’s what this group of South Korean fans must have thought before entering Akron. As expected, security wouldn’t allow a bottle of tequila into the stands. So what did they do? Down it went. Empty bottle, fans inside the stadium, and pure happiness. Time to enjoy.

Tequila as fuel for workOne way or another, tequila was yesterday’s star beyond the playing fields. Just ask this Brazilian reporter. In the middle of a live hit, he was not only offered a shot of tequila, but they ended up putting a fake mustache on him too. Judging by the message he sent his mother, though, he didn’t seem to mind.

Do you hear it? It’s silenceThere was no mood for a party in South Africa, though. The image Bafana Bafana showed in the opening match against Mexico was far from the best. And the proof was on the faces of several legends on local television. Benny McCarthy, Quinton Fortune... they were in no mood for smiles after conceding a 2-0 defeat.

Haaland, at the hockeyYes, Norway are back at a football World Cup 28 years later. But there’s an even more popular sport in the Nordic countries: ice hockey. And with a World Championship being played in the United States at the same time as the NHL’s Stanley Cup, it would be a sin not to go in person. Just ask Erling Haaland, who was there for Game 5 of the finals.
