          Good morning, world.

          I’ve been in New York City this week. Call me a tourist, but it really is a special place, with an anything-could-happen-today energy that has only been reinforced by the World Cup. I’ve been amazed by how much the city of the Knicks, Rangers, Yankees and Giants is here for it. (Shout out to the doorman who wanted to talk about something called “soccer” on my first night here!)

          It’s been an intense five weeks. Some of it has been polarizing: President Trump leaning on FIFA to reinstate an American player who got a red card, for instance, or Egypt’s disallowed goal against Argentina (and, ahem, Germany’s disallowed goal against Paraguay). Some of it has been classic beautiful game: My personal favorite match was Cape Verde’s incredible performance against Argentina.

          But every World Cup also generates stories of lightness and levity. And so before we all settle down to watch the final on Sunday, we wanted to revisit some of those today.

          One amazing thing about the World Cup being hosted in the U.S.: Every country in the world has its own diaspora in America. Which meant every team found it already had a fan base that shares its passion and pride for the country they or their ancestors once called home. Bosnians in St. Louis. Moroccans in Queens. Haitians in Miami. The French in Chicago. Argentines in Utah. The list goes on.

          John McDermott in Italy described a moving moment after Egypt lost to Argentina. “After the final whistle two players sought each other out to exchange a sincere embrace and shirts: Egypt’s star player Mohamed Salah and Argentina’s Alexis Mac Allister were friends and teammates at FC Liverpool,” John wrote. “This is what the World Cup — and indeed sport in general — is really all about.”

          Beverley Ann Abrahams in Zimbabwe said she had been worried about politics and racism getting in the way of this World Cup. “But then Erling Haaland and the ‘Vikings’ made their debut and the cloud lifted!” she said. “As their ‘roos’ echoed across the world, like almost every other supporter globally, I felt joy! Thank you Erling, what a blessing you are in a world filled with so much despair!”

          Many of you admitted to feeling some schadenfreude when the U.S. was knocked out after Trump requested a review of an American player’s suspension (and got his way). Vincent Champion from Sydney spoke for many when he said: “The U.S. crashing was a classic example of karma at work.”

          Finally, my colleague Alex Marshall, our European culture correspondent, wrote in to share his own favorite memory: “Spending a night in a London pub with several hundred Bosnians watching their team draw with Canada, during which time they repeatedly sang a repurposed ska track by the great Dubioza Kolektiv. I very much enjoyed shouting ‘I am from Bosnia / Take me to America’ and ‘Take me to Golden Gate / I will assimilate’ despite not being remotely Bosnian.”
