A video from the ongoing FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar is swiftly going viral on social media and is leaving Indian football fans amused. Reason? It shows a woman from Argentina with the Indian flag around her while an Indian man can be seen donning Argentina's flag. The video was posted on Instagram with the caption, "Divided by nation, united by football. Thank you @leticiaestevez for loving our nation."
In the video, one can see an Indian man named Yadil M Iqbal standing next to an Argentinian woman named Leti Estévez. The clip starts with Iqbal saying in Malayalam that he spotted Leti during Argentina's game and that she is wearing the tricolour in response to the love and support that the Argentina team is receiving from the Indians. He adds that whenever he spots a football fan from Brazil, Portugal or any other nation, he shows them photographs from Kerala as proof of the state's love for football. He further hopes that one day Messi, Neymar Jr or Ronaldo will notice the craze and play for the leagues in the Indian state of Kerala.
