I’ve never been much of a typical football fans, 

which is why I have yet to sacrifice any sleep time for the sake of the World Cup, 

however, I’m essentially surrounded by a whole entourage of soccer fanatics, 

and they have pretty much kept me updated on just how heated the matches have been. 

On the same token, some friends of mine are only into the English Football League 

with little to no interest towards the World Cup,
