Quote, paraphrase, and citation #4

“But what's much cooler is the point that the nations of the world can gather peacefully.”
This is another quote that shows how significant the World Cup is because it brings nations together.  As I said before, this is a huge event worldwide.  Statistics say that the World Cup is watched more than the Olympics and liked more.  Also, it is the sport that everyone can gather together and not have many problems at all.  Even if their team loses they are still celebrating; they let it go and enjoy the other soccer games.  I feel like this quote is very good, because I feel the same way about this.  I might not love to watch soccer because it gets boring sometime, but I love to watch the thousands of people interacting with each other when they all have something in common.
