🎥 Multicoloured party, a 'Figo' and top marketing: World Cup laughs 🤣

Another day of the World Cup, another day of celebration in the host cities. They all experienced an afternoon full of emotion and color. Here are some moments.

Houston, we have a color

The usual at this World Cup. The 'Oranje tide' painting the streets of wherever they play orange. This time, Houston. The NASA host city watched the Dutch national team blast off toward the top, propelled by its fans.

German party in Toronto

From Houston to Toronto. If Houston was an orange tide, Toronto was a place where Germany almost felt at home.

Here is Curaçao

It was the World Cup’s big question. Where the hell is Curaçao? Well, here it is. And it’s making a big-time statement, earning its first-ever World Cup point in the best way possible. The country erupted in jubilation after its first draw against Ecuador was confirmed.

The royal congratulations after a real feat

Curaçao’s achievement was such a big deal that even the King and Queen of the Netherlands came down to congratulate the team from their former colony. Willem-Alexander and Máxima stopped by Curaçao’s dressing room to celebrate something historic: this country’s first-ever World Cup point.

Boston has won over the Scots

The images of the Tartan Army have been some of the best of this World Cup. Some Scottish fans have fallen so in love with Boston that they even want to stay forever. Just ask this guy, who is determined to change his life.

Gary Lineker returned... pulling a Figo

In England, this was one of the night’s big surprises. Gary Lineker returned to a TV studio to comment on Germany–Ivory Coast. But he did it on the rival channel to the one where he had worked until a year ago. In football terms, it was a textbook Figo move.

Banned brand? No problem

FIFA is being very restrictive when it comes to allowing brands other than its sponsors to have a presence in stadiums. It already happened at a venue named after a denim brand... and now at this one. What do you do if FIFA won’t allow a razor and shaving products brand to appear in the stadium? Cover it with what covers skin that’s about to be shaved: a big blob of foam. The best a man can get.
