Friendly football fans just hope everyone has fun

We hope football is the winner...

Remember those ‘everyone gets a medal’ events you had at school sports days? Well here’s the closest we’ll get to a real-life equivalent.

With Canada hosting the Women’s World Cup, football fans in the city of Moncton might have hoped to see their home nation in action.

However they have been left with a variety of other games, including four from the group containing England, France, Colombia and Mexico.

In these circumstances some might choose an adopted favourite, but one group of supporters made it clear they want football to be the winner.

The makers of half-and-half scarves must be kicking themselves after missing this opportunity.

And someone might need to give this guy a call to tell him he’s been out-neutralled.
