🤩 Sleep optional: brutal kick-off time won't stop these fans

🤩 Sleep optional: brutal kick-off time won't stop these fans In Australia, it’s currently the afternoon, but things look very different here in Germany: on this Sunday, most people are probably not even awake yet, and in many places the beer for tonight likely isn’t even chilling yet. Things haven’t worked out quite so well with the classic kick-off time in Turkey today either, because the Turkish team is already battling for the first three group points of this World Cup — against Australia. These videos on ‘X’ prove it: the early-morning kick-off time — and in Turkey too, it’s really still the middle of the night on a Sunday — can’t put real football fans off. Instead of still lying comfortably in bed, countless supporters made their way to public viewing events to follow the action live on screen from Vancouver on Canada’s Pacific coast. Place your bets: how many of these fans did the responsible thing and go to bed nice and early last night, and how many simply stayed up all night and got themselves in the mood for kick-off with the earlier matches? Kick-off time in Canada was 9:00 p.m., so the Turkey fans on site had a much more classic schedule — assuming they weren’t still suffering from jet lag. Judging by the images from the fan march, that clearly wasn’t the case. That said, the Turkish supporters didn’t really have much to celebrate: despite being the better side in terms of play, Güler & Co. lost 0–2 to clinical Australians.  Public viewing at the crack of dawn — is that your thing too? Or do you prefer the slightly smaller screen in front of your cozy couch at home at that hour? Write it in the comments! This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
