Soccer Fever

Everywhere, with the exception of North America, soccer is a national sport and pastime.
Bosnia and Herzegovina is no different than the rest of Europe.
When their team played Turkey last Wednesday night, it felt like the whole country was gathered in front of the television or packed the stadium in Sarajevo.
We joined a group at a local bar in Mostar that was projecting the game on the wall outside.
Everyone moved as a group.
A team member got a break away everyone was on their feet cheering.
A collective Boo, when he missed.
In the end they tied, which was worthy of a celebration!
Bosnia and Herzegovina faired much better than Croatia, who was loosing five to one to England, when I got disgruntled and turned off the TV.
