The Most Breathtaking Soccer Fans That May Have Also Graced The 2022 World Cup!

Iran

Besides being the motherland of one of the world’s oldest civilizations, Iran has also become quite well-known for its art, architecture, and culture. Among its specialties is calligraphy, explaining why the body paintings on this fan are flawless.

The number ten was embellished on her T-shirt above the heart. This number was sported by Iranian soccer players Sardar Azmoun and Karim Ansarifard as members of the nation’s 2021 national team squad. Unfortunately, as per a December 2022 report by The Athletic, Iran was eliminated from the 2022 World Cup after losing to the United States by a score of 1-0.

Brazil

Aside from living in the biggest nation in South America, which is why they have four distinct time zones, Brazilians are famous for being among the world’s best soccer enthusiasts. As per popular belief, about nine out of ten Brazilians have experienced playing soccer in their lives.

Brazil conquered the FIFA World Cup finals more than any other nation in history, with five wins. Having stunning and supportive fans rallying behind them must also help the team become even more motivated. But in 2022, the team got kicked out by Croatia following a 4-2 loss.

Croatia

We don’t think any words would do justice to the Croatian fans that raised the spirits of their team in the 2018 World Cup. Then again, the Croatian team was able to beat teams from Belgium, Denmark, England, and Russia, going all the way to the finals, which says a thing or two about how competent men can be when faced with beauty.

Croatia didn’t win the World Cup. Nonetheless, battling it out with France in a final is a feat on its own for the humble nation of Croatia. In 2022, they capped off another outstanding World Cup campaign by winning third place.

Iran

Besides being the motherland of one of the world’s oldest civilizations, Iran has also become quite well-known for its art, architecture, and culture. Among its specialties is calligraphy, explaining why the body paintings on this fan are flawless.

The number ten was embellished on her T-shirt above the heart. This number was sported by Iranian soccer players Sardar Azmoun and Karim Ansarifard as members of the nation’s 2021 national team squad. Unfortunately, as per a December 2022 report by The Athletic, Iran was eliminated from the 2022 World Cup after losing to the United States by a score of 1-0.

Belgium

The moniker “Red Devils Association” by the Royal Belgian Football Association isn’t lost on Belgian soccer supporters since these fans are equally as proactive as they are attractive. Merge these fierce fanatics with a team consisting of players like Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku, and we have a well-oiled soccer machine adept at dismantling any team.

Of course, Belgium placing third at the 2018 World Cup wasn’t unexpected, nor was their first placement at the FIFA ranking. Seeing them ranking second in 2022, it’s safe to say that this national team is surely building up to be the one to beat.

Colombia

We haven’t found Colombian fans lacking in their cheers, songs, colors, and outfits. And with their sheer number, they are taking this fan business to another level. This was apparent in this South American team’s 3-0 win over the Poland national team, fielding excellent players like Lewandowski. The exact match saw their triumph against Senegal, the highest-ranking team in Africa.

Their playing prowess has put Colombia in the 12th position of the 2018 FIFA ranking, moving them toward the tenth position in 2019. However, by 2022, this promising national team only managed to place 17th in the FIFA men’s rankings.

Senegal

With their performance during the 2018 World Cup, Senegal soccer fans were able to make Africa proud. Apart from the unforeseen 2-1 defeat of Poland that they cheered their nation into, the supporters also took the example of Japanese fans by celebrating their victory with a clean-up brigade, earning the world’s respect while enjoying some notoriety.

A good challenger for various soccer teams, Senegal became the highest-ranking African team at FIFA, ranking in the 23rd spot. By 2022, they were up five positions, placing 18th while still leading among other African teams at the FIFA World Cup held in Qatar

Saudi Arabia

Fans of a special breed are the only ones capable of recovering a shattered morale from a five-nil loss at the hands of team Russia during the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Through their fans’ support, Saudi Arabia went on to defeat the Egyptian team that fielded the mythical Mohammed Salah, ultimately ranking third within their group.

The Saudi Arabian national soccer team placed 69th in the 2018 FIFA ranking, a placement they have since abandoned for the much higher ranking of 53rd in 2022. They have only been able to get up to their best ranking so far of 28th place in 2004.

South Korea

Even though Taekwondo is South Korea’s national sport, this nation also partakes in other sporting events like basketball, bullfighting, and baseball. Regardless, soccer is the most favorite one. Based on a 2021 poll answered by South Koreans, it’s the most favored, garnering 25% of the votes, while baseball came in second at 18.8%. This illustrates why soccer supporters outnumber those of other sports in South Korea. 

With this nation’s distinctive beauty standards contributing to the republic’s reputation as one of the best for plastic surgery, it’s not surprising that it has soccer fans looking as lovely as these two.
