that’s not quite right. all of the muslim countries have muslim players. but the not white brit players looked more african than muslim.
“but the not white brit players looked more african than muslim.”
To call these teams “national teams” is a joke.
The French starting team is all black except for one Algerian.
It’s more like foreign legion teams, or teams of mercenaries. They look nothing like the country’s population, nor do the names have any connection to the nation’s language.
Heck, even Switzerland has 3 or 4 blacks in its starting lineup, where there’s hardly any blacks in Switzerland.
