people saying brazilian players celebrate and dance too much when they score. fuck off. they're happy. we're happy. we're never going going to be emotionless people, we celebrate, we're loud. if your country is less emotional then that's ok, but that's how we are. it's a cultural thing. we're like this about everything. so just stop.
i thought these tweets were too sexy to be left behind
[ID: Series of tweets about the double standards between European teams versus third world teams in the World Cup. They are as follows:
@\RoyNemer: "If an English player fouls, they call it grit and heart. If an Argentine or a South American does it, they are called dirty. The Dutch talk all of that talk before the game and they are called confident. Argentina react and they're called disrespectful. Haters gonna hate. [Argentina flag emoji]". Attached is a picture of the Argentinian team celebrating their win.
@\beingmich: "And to add an example from the most hated rival (Brazil): if an European has an outgoing personality, he's just full of life. If a South American dances after scoring a wondergoal, he's being disrespectful and deserves to be fouled all game [rolling eyes emoji]"
@\resistance_sa: "Nothing burns more than when a "third world" country triumphs over the former European colonizer. As an African, we are here to enjoy every minute." End ID] (thanks for the ID @tothetrashwhereibelong)

“i draw strength from the family, from the people who suffer because i know where i came from, from a place that did not have much of a future. just by being here i am already a winner, regardless of winning or losing a game. there is many people still suffering.”
“i have never thought about leaving spain, because that would be giving the racists what they want. i'm not going to leave the best club in the world. the racists are a minority, i’m going to remain firm and strong because the president and the club support me.”
“sorry, i just want to play football, do everything for my family and my club.”
