Anger in the United States

The article discusses criticism directed at celebrities attending the FIFA World Cup matches, particularly focusing on their presence during the game between the United States and Turkey. Celebrities such as Jessica Alba, Brad Pitt, and Paris Hilton were spotted on the sidelines, drawing attention away from the football itself.

However, others believe this trend highlights the lack of deep cultural roots for football in America compared to other countries.
