    Every country deserves to have something to celebrate.

    And sport is a pretty benign thing, aside from FIFA being perhaps the most corrupt organization in the multiverse.

    Being able to win on a global stage, especially when you don’t have rich-nation resources, implies they earned it with hard work. Everyone Loves underdog sport stories. (Think the Jamacian bobsled team)

    We can celebrate football today, and their inevitable retaliation against Japan for turning the penninsula into a puppet state later.
