Poland

Kisses from Polish women in the audience have become the norm, as evidenced by this stunning woman blowing one to one of her country’s players. She went to cheer for her country’s team, which was participating in the World Cup 2018 in Russia at the time.

Over the years, Poland has faced mixed results in the competition, and since 1982, it has only gone past the group stage once, but luckily, it was selected for the 2022 World Cup lineup in Qatar. Despite coming in second place to its main competitor England in European Qualification Group I, Poland overcame this setback to defeat Sweden 2-0 in the play-off match.

Russia

In the 2018 World Cup, many women rallied in the arena to cheer and support their teams. Aside from bringing more flair and fun to the game, these joyful fans motivate the players. Like this stunning woman, Natalya Nemchinova, who was photographed blowing a kiss to the Russian players during their match against Saudi Arabia, Russia won 5-0.

After attending a few matches, the blond beauty melted people’s hearts, caused a stir on the internet, and was dubbed “the World Cup’s sensual supporter.” The country gave a spirited performance and won two group matches thanks to their advanced knockouts. To qualify for the quarterfinals, they defeated Spain on penalties.

Colombia

Usually, when a team is performing on the pitch, there are always cameras rolling. This gorgeous Colombian woman attracted the media with her lovely smile and hit the headlines after her pretty looks landed her on top media websites like the Daily Mail and CBS.

She appears overjoyed to have attended a game, even though her team, Colombia, was not playing that day; she was carrying their flag anyway. The young fan added a celebratory vibe to the Group G match that was happening between Ghana and the United States, held in 2014 at the Estadio das Dunas Stadium in Natal, Brazil.

Russia

The year 2018 was a massive one for Russia as it hosted the 21st FIFA World Cup, and France went home with the tournament after defeating Croatia 4-2 in the finals. The competition took place in 11 locations and ended with the championship game in Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium. Approximately one billion people watched the game, and this cheerful woman was proudly one of them.

Russia began with a 5-0 thrashing of Saudi Arabia and finished with a 2-2 tie with Croatia. They fell against the country of Southeast Europe 4-3 on penalties. However, the country still showed its tenacity by advancing against all odds to the event’s quarterfinal round.

Poland

Poland made their first World Cup appearance in the 1939 series when Italy defeated Hungary 4-2 to win the tournament. Other countries that made their debuts that year were Norway, Cuba, and the Netherlands East Indies, and to much to everyone’s surprise, made it to the quarterfinals.

Even though Poland didn’t get past the group stage, fans turned out in full support of the team’s short run, like this one photographed at one of the Group H matches. To many soccer fans, this was the quintessential poster girl image for the 2018 Russian FIFA World Cup. Could she bag that honor twice at the Qatar World Cup in 2022?

Russia

The 2018 FIFA World Cup was one of a kind, as it attracted many spectators in Europe and worldwide. Remember, it was the first ever to be hosted in Eastern Europe. The previous one was in Germany in 2006.

So it’s no wonder this gorgeous woman couldn’t keep calm because who knows when the event will be held again in Russia. While she was in a celebratory mood, the Italians, on the other hand, were devastated since they had not qualified to compete in the tournament since 1958. This was also the year that Iceland and Panama competed for the first time in history.

Paraguay

Despite participating in the competition eight times, Paraguay has a lower soccer prowess than other South American countries on the international soccer scene. Its previous terrific performance was in the 2010 World Cup held in South Africa. That was where this joyful fan was captured, accompanied by others to show support for the country, and returned with a tinge of happiness.

During the competition, The Los Guaraníes team had one of its greatest games, eventually leaving the competition in the quarterfinals. Since then, it has fought its way back to the international tournament, even though Paraguay might not attend the Qatar 2022 grand finale.

 Portugal

In 1966, Portugal participated in its first World Cup competition and finished third, which has since remained their most remarkable performance. In 2006, the team surprised everyone by finishing fourth after losing to then-host Germany. Unfortunately, things turned south in the 2010 season after Spain beat the team in the round of 16.

Pictured here is a radiant Portuguese fan cheering at one of the mind-blowing matches between her country and Spain in the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Luckily, she went home happy after Cristiano Ronaldo, the country’s favorite, scored a hat-trick against the Spaniards, despite the latter team’s extensive experience in the game.

Croatia

Croatia has competed in five tournaments since playing their fast match during the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France, where they finished third after defeating the Netherlands 2-1. Since gaining independence in 1991, the country has grown into a soccer superpower. The freedom came with allowing such stunning fans to support the young men shining on the field.

The country eventually lost the competition to France in Russia in 2018, which is perhaps this young woman looks somewhat subdued. As Croatia prepares for Qatar 2022, its lead players are gearing up for the competition, one of them being the legendary Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modrić.

France

While France hopes to defend its title in Qatar in 2022 successfully, it made history by winning its second World Cup in Russia in 2018. It’s also among the six host nations to ever win the tournament at home, and luckily, it has one of its best squads, led by PSG’s fast-paced attacker and striker Kylian Mbappé.

Football fans can fully expect to see droves of chic French beauties flocking to Qatar in support of their national team. Meanwhile, we’re hoping that the on-field drama that unfolded between Marco Materazzi and French team captain Zinedine Zidane as it did in Italy in 2006, doesn’t replay.

France

The motivational message on the jersey reads “Rien n’est impossible,” which translates to “nothing is impossible.” This girl came with a clear target for her national team, France, to win the 2014 World Cup held in Brazil. Unfortunately for her, her homesquad left at the quarterfinals stage.

If she was in Russia in 2018, her message most likely worked wonders this time, as Les Blues went all the way to win the trophy. Her spirits must be sky high for the 2022 showpiece in Qatar, with most of the players and coaches who won the award still on the field to defend the country’s honor.

Spain

South Africa hosted one of the most historical World Cup events in 2010, which saw Spain stand tall with its golden team of talented stars. Four years later, “La Furia Roja,” meaning “the Red Fury,” failed to defend its trophy in a catastrophic and best-forgotten performance in Brazil.

This girl was lucky to see it lift the coveted diadem in 2010 before it bowed out at the group stage four years later. We expect the “tiki-taka” masters to bring their A-game in Qatar, having very comfortably qualified for the quadrennial event. The Spanish squad must be looking forward to winning the trophy for the second time.

Iceland

Despite ranking as one of the smallest countries in the world, Iceland is known for its soccer strength, which has led to its qualification for major tournament competitions four times. In the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the nation made its maiden appearance but didn’t pass past the group D stage after Croatia eliminated it 2-1.

This lovely fan appeared during the countries’ second qualifying group match, which ended in a 1-1 tie with Argentina. Though she seemed happy with that outcome, the next game was quite devastating as her team lost to Nigeria. Nonetheless, Iceland still qualified for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Argentina

In the entire World Cup history, only Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay have ever won the tournament in South America. So far, Albiceleste has participated in the quadrennial competition 18 times, while La Celeste has appeared 13 times.

Since the previous tournament was brought home by the legendary Diego Maradona in 1986, Lionel Messi may have to mobilize his team to drive him to win the cherished prize, as it might be his last chance to participate. Meanwhile, this stunning woman was one of the hundreds of fans who turned out for Argentina’s match, which ended in heartbreak when the team lost 1-0 in extra time to Germany in 2014.

Sweden

Football players value having their significant others cheer them on when they perform in big games. Usually, the FIFA World Cup matches get intense for both players and spectators, so people need their special someone to motivate them. Swedish midfielder Christian Wilhelmsson’s wife, Oksana Andersson, is pictured cheering on her husband throughout the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

Her efforts paid off because Sweden advanced to the quarterfinals before eventually bowing to England 2-0. Unfortunately, the Blågult was defeated by Poland and was eliminated from the Qatar 2022 World Cup. With no less than 12 chances at playing for the World Cup, they’ll have to wait for the next opportunity.

Mexico

The 2022 World Cup in Qatar will mark Mexico’s 17th participation at the event, hoping to better its results of 16 wins and 14 draws at the international competition. In fact, the nation may attempt to go beyond the quarterfinal stage, as it did in 1970 and 1986.

If it is to advance, Mexico must first break the competition’s unwelcome record of 27 losses by a single team. If the fan pictured here also travels to support the El Tri at the 2022 event, she should expect hotter weather in Qatar than she did in Brazil in 2014, when she attended the 0-0 draw against the host.

Egypt

Egypt has qualified for the World Cup tournament three times: in 1934, 1990, and 2018 competitions. Unfortunately, the team didn’t qualify for the 2022 Qatar edition, but when this lovely woman attended a previous match wearing the pharaoh’s outfit, she left everyone talking and wishing to see the Egyptians more. As candid moments from the cheering crowds go, this one will forever be memorable.

Despite making three significant contributions to the competition, the North African nation has yet to win a single game, tie two, or lose five. Surprisingly, the legendary Egyptian goalkeeper Essam El Hadary saved the penalty in the 2018 match against Saudi Arabia in Round 16.

Colombia

Experts predicted the FIFA World Cup 2022 to be a difficult one for Colombia, as they didn’t qualify to participate in the tournament. Previously, the country had taken part in six world cup competitions, and due to the intense nature of the game, it’s become a commendable soccer powerhouse in South America.

Unfortunately, the squad struggled to reach the quarterfinals and came out fifth after losing 1-0 to Brazil during the 2018 competition in Russia. Jessica Sterling, in the picture, is David Ospina’s wife, who was disappointed to see her goalie husband and his team lose to England in a penalty shootout after 16 rounds.

Mexico

Mexico has been doing commendable work in soccer, as out of the 21 World Cup editions, the country has participated in 16, including the Qatar 2022 tournament. Mexico’s also so far hosted two of the events, in 1970 and 1986, and in both, the North American country reached the quarterfinals.

Sadly, Mexico is ranked as one of the teams with the most losses (27) in World Cup history. This ecstatic girl was one of the spectators who cheered on the El Tri in the Russia 2018 competition. Luckily, the thrilling match against Germany, which the country won 1-0, left everyone with goosebumps and Mexican fans jubilant.

Poland

It’s heartwarming to see almost all Polish women captured cheering the athletes by blowing a kiss; could it be their unique way of showing their love for the game? Well, this fine woman’s picture was taken during a match at the Russia 2018 competition at Otkritie Arena, where everyone’s spirit was hitting the sky.

She attended the Group H opening match that featured Senegal and her country’s team. Although the team was defeated 2-1, we bet she must’ve still had a great time watching and may return to Qatar in 2022. Poland has been the second runner-up twice and might surprise people with a win this time.

Colombia

With only six World Cup appearances under its belt, Colombia just missed qualifying for the Qatar 2022 tournament by emerging at number six in the qualification of the 10-team CONMEBOL group. When the Los Cafeteros went for the intense competition in Russia in 2018, the team lost to England in the round of 16 on penalties after finishing in a tie of 1-1 full-time.

The woman in the picture was captured during a match between her country and Japan as she was proudly displaying her beloved country’s flag. Unfortunately, the game did not go as planned, with Colombia falling to Japan 2-1.

Russia

It’s heartwarming to see women becoming increasingly more enthusiastic soccer fans as time passes. This young fan had heads turning during the Russia 2018 competition when she arrived dressed as a queen to cheer her beloved Russian team. Lucky for her, she was among the lucky three million spectators who showed up for the entire World Cup tournament.

She seems clearly content with the ongoings as her country performed magnificently. Though Russia was one of the best-performing teams, their performance in the quarterfinals fell short of their usual standard, like in the 1966 World Cup, when Russia placed fourth overall in the competition.

France

When these beautiful women were photographed cheering on their team France during the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, many people were surprised that their two-goal predictions were correct. Despite being eliminated in the quarterfinals, the team defeated Switzerland 5-2, proving that they were right.

Many people called these ardent supporters the nation’s good luck charm, but sadly, four years later, the girls were nowhere to be seen in the Russia 2018 competition. Luckily, France made history by taking the tournament home, and since it made it to Qatar in 2022, French fans will be flocking to the Middle Eastern nation by the thousands to support their national team.

Brazil

Every spectator at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia tried their hardest to portray their teams as the best. These two Brazilian female supporters stood out when they attended the country’s match, resulting in a 1-1 tie with Switzerland.

Most fans are always looking forward to seeing the Brazil team play, and lucky for them, they’ll be performing in the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Brazil has five World Cup titles under its belt, making it one of the most successful teams in the World Cup’s history. The country is known for its prowess and terrific performances in soccer.

Croatia

Since it debuted at the 1998 World Cup in France, Croatia has continued to impress at the showpiece, making five appearances since, except for the 2010 edition in South Africa. The small European country of about four million people has some of the most passionate female fans ever seen.

This girl attended one of its matches in Russia in 2018, an event that also saw the country’s female leader, President Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic, attend to show solidarity with the team. After finishing second in Russia, the country with only two locally based players at the event would undoubtedly expect to win the competition.

Colombia

Colombia has a unique way of decorating the stands with passionate fans who travel the world to support them. This gorgeous girl forms that group, spotted here in 2018 in Russia, where her nation held its own up to the round of 16. England, unfortunately, later eliminated the team from the competition.

If she happens to travel to Qatar in 2022, she’ll have to support another nation, given that Los Cafeteros failed to qualify for the event. The coffee-producing country would need to re-strategize for the expanded 2026 showpiece. If it fails, the Columbian players will have been absent from the event for over a decade.

Poland

As everyone prepares for the FIFA World Cup 2022, the Polish people are more excited than most, ready to make their first appearance in the competition. Just like it happened during the previous 2018 Russian event, we expect to see more gorgeous women flooding in, just like this young woman seen during Senegal’s performance.

Unfortunately, Poland left disappointed but is ready to shine their way in Qatar, as they are also equipped with one of the finest attacking leaders, Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski. There is still a good chance that the Central European team will dominate the 2022 FIFA pitch, as they did in 1974 and 1982.

Brazil

Brazillian fans are always looking forward to the World Cup every four years, and for obvious reasons, Brazil’s name is usually on the lips of most soccer lovers. Because of its hugely popular soccer pedigree, the country has become a fan favorite over the years. This fan chose to travel all the way to snowy Russia to show her love for her home team.

She was attending the Brazil and Switzerland match that resulted in a 1-1 tie during the Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup competition. During the 1950 World Cup, the country made history by filling the arena to the rafters for the final match against Uruguay in Maracanã.

Poland

Although Poland seems to have had a rough time during the big events, it has been improving its skills to match up with other top European soccer powerhouses. In Russia 2018, the country made its seventh appearance in the competition and was pooled in Group H with countries like Colombia, Japan, and Senegal.

The lucky woman in this picture had the opportunity to cheer up her team during their Senegal match, which resulted in a 2-1 loss. Poland was eventually eliminated, but they bagged a spot in the Qatar 2022 tournament. So this fan has a second chance to cheer for her team, hoping to make waves this season.

Senegal

This lovely woman traveled to Russia for the 2018 World Cup together with her other compatriots. Usually, African soccer supporters are known for their love and passion for their country and the sport. It was unexpected for her to have waved politely, even though it seemed like she was watching an adrenaline-pumping session like a penalty.

The two-time World Cup contenders lost at the group stage of the 2018 competition in Russia but will always be grateful to have reached the quarterfinals in the 2002 season. The team has announced its determination to perform at its best with the aid of its leader, Bayern Munich’s Sadio Mané.

Saudi Arabia

Indeed, times are changing, and women can now watch men’s soccer matches in Saudi Arabia. Clearly, the country boasts gorgeous women to light up the game’s intense moments. The Qatar 2022 World Cup became their sixth time participating in the tournament.

When the oil-reach state met with the host country in the opening match of the competition, it lost to Russia with a 5-0 result, but regardless, the young woman still cheered for her beloved nation. One of Saudi Arabia’s most outstanding performances was in the 1994 World Cup when it made it to the Round of 16 after Egypt’s goalkeeper, Essam El Hadary, saved the penalty.

Russia

Russian citizens were all excited when they hosted the 2018 World Cup competition. Women were also not far behind, as thousands of them rushed to the arena to watch their boys shine. This jubilant fan proudly hoisted her nation’s flag as the country’s team made it to the tournament for the eleventh time.

She stood out because of her lovely looks, and with the flag, she lifted its high for everyone to see that they were in control. That year, the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow, Russia’s capital, hosted a live-from-space transmission of a delightful and fascinating logo unveiling ceremony that was in tune with the competition’s ”outer space exploration” theme.

France

France blazed the field on its way to lifting its second World Cup trophy in 2018 in Russia in a contest that served up an extremely creative side of the team to spectators. One of the fans who stood out was this beautiful, queen-looking French supporter who attended the nation’s match against Australia in Kazan Arena.

Her traditional Russian headdress stood out among the crowd in a match where the eventual competition champion won a hard-fought 2-1 win. We hope to see her in Qatar, where the Les Blues will be looking forward to retaining the trophy after having kept most of its winning team.

Colombia

Colombia is the world’s second-most biodiverse nation and is known to be often voted one of the happiest countries worldwide. With such infectiously cheerful fans in the crowds, it’s clear to see why Columbians are a happy lot. With that said, it’s unfortunate that she’s unlikely to appear in Qatar in 2022 as her country failed to qualify for the quadrennial event.

She might just be tuning in to watch the event on her TV. But at least here, she enjoyed herself thoroughly at the 2018 Russia World Cup. This image is from the nation’s unfortunate loss to the Japanese team.

Japan

Japan is known for its multiple colorful cultural traditions, something many have been looking forward to seeing in its seventh World Cup participation in Qatar in 2022. This cheering crowd member shows a glimpse of what to expect from the nation’s female fans, pictured at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

The land of the rising sun would expect to improve on its three rounds of 16 exits at the 2022 competition. Although the nation lost 3-2 to Belgium to exit the showpiece, the Blue Samurai fans warmed hearts when they cleaned up after themselves in a Group H match; it beat Colombia 2-1.

Poland

These were the scenes in Russia in 2018 when Poland took to the field. These girls passionately blew kisses to show their support for the players at a match played at the Spartak Stadium in Moscow. It didn’t go well for the nation, leaving the competition on the group stage.

Although their resolve wasn’t thawed in any way, these women may look forward to blowing more kisses in Qatar in 2022. The Polish have been drawn in Group C against Mexico, Saudi Arabia, and Argentina. It should expect a tough outing against the South American giants led by the inspirational seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi.

Iran

Iran’s appearance at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar will mark its sixth participation in the four-year competition. It hasn’t had much luck, departing the showpiece at the group stage in each of its past five appearances. In 2018, in Russia, the nation’s female fans were a sight to behold with their contrasting beauty and outfits.

This girl let it loose at the match featuring her nation and Spain, unlike most Muslim women, who kept it downright conservative with hijabs on. Team Melli lost the match 1-0, but her fans had their full enjoyment, much like they can look forward to the same in Qatar.

Brazil

Don’t be confused about the name Brasil as it’s the Portuguese version of Brazil, a South American football powerhouse that hosted the 20th edition of the FIFA World Cup in 2014. During that time, these were the scenes of elated girls and women rallying behind their nation.

Their enthusiasm was, however, dampened by the country’s failure to procure the trophy on home soil, finishing fourth after its 3-0 loss to the Netherlands. The worst result they lived to see in that tournament was a 7-1 semi-final mauling by Germany, which went on to lift the trophy. Argentina was the unfortunate 1-0 loser in the final.

Tunisia

Tunisia’s appearance at the FIFA World Cup has never resulted in success, with all five appearances ending in the group stage. In fact, it has been so poor that it has only won two matches: against Mexico in 1978 and Panama, which debuted in the competition in 2018 in Russia.

This bright-eyed hopeful fan was among the many spectators who flocked to watch their nation come away with a 2-0 win. The nation has shared high hopes of improving its performance in Qatar in 2022. That is if FIFA shelves its impending threat to ban it from the competition due to government interference in sports management.

Brazil

In 2014, Brazil hosted the World Cup with great aplomb. The “Canarinho,” or simply “Little Canary,” as the teammates are popularly known for their distinctive bright yellow jerseys, had elated crowds attending matches, including this happy woman. She was present at the England vs. Italy match; Italy won 2-1.

Even though she wasn’t able to attend all the playoffs involving her country, she took time out in her hometown of Manaus at the Arena da Amazônia to watch this game. The stadium, built on the former Vivaldão stadium site, hosted four games and was one of the seven venues constructed from scratch for the competition.

Germany

Although nicknamed “Die Mannschaft,” meaning “the team,” Germany has yet to prove its teamwork mettle to match Brazil in World Cup trophies, standing at four. In 2014, the Germans graced the quadrennial event, ranking as one of the favorites to win the entire event.

The team didn’t disappoint its fans, including these devoted female supporters who painted their faces with the nation’s flag. Their allegiance to their boys was richly rewarded when the country went all the way to win the trophy. Unfortunately, Germany performed dismally in its defense of the diadem in Russia in 2018, something it hopes to rectify in Qatar in 2022.

Brazil

Brazil keeps appearing on this list due to its rich football history and unrivaled World Cup success. In 2014, while hosting the four-year event, this woman, Marcella Guevara, was spotted following its 3-1 Group A win over Croatia on TV at Miami’s Kukaramakara cafe block.

The staunch Samba Boys supporter was unfortunate to witness her country become the sixth host nation never to win the trophy at home. Out of 21 World Cup editions, only six have been won by host countries. South Africa remains the only unfortunate host nation to fail to go past the competition’s group stage, although it’s the first African nation to host the competition.

Italy

Italy has four World Cup trophies, level with Germany and only one behind Brazil, but unlike its European counterparts, it has no chance of matching that feat in 2022. The Gli Azzurri were eliminated during the competition’s qualification stage and did not advance to the showpiece in Qatar.

In fact, Italy’s last World Cup appearance came in 2014 in Brazil, where it also failed to make it past the group stage. So much to bear for this lovely lady who traveled the world to support them in their dreadful games. It’s heartbreaking that the team had nothing to rely on, not even the newly introduced goal-line technology.

Iran

Expect similar scenes to those seen in Brazil in 2014, as Iran is approximately 510 miles by air from the FIFA 2022 World Cup host country, Qatar. With the state granting women the right to watch stadium matches in 2022, many are likely to travel to support their country.

This brightly-painted fan was pictured outside Baixada Arena in Curitiba, Brazil, on her way to watch her nation eke out a 0-0 draw with African soccer giants Nigeria. In Iran, female spectators are expected to dress more formally, according to Muslim women’s standards, unlike how many did in Russia during the 2018 event.

Saudi Arabia

In 2018, Saudi Arabia allowed its women to travel abroad and watch the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia as part of an entire slew of changes geared towards fostering inclusivity. This fan was among the lucky few to make the journey. The state’s first inclusive all-fans-welcome event occurred in a UAE stadium in January of the same year.

Contrary to her bemused looks, her national team was on the receiving end, losing 2-1 to Egypt after a valiant effort. The Middle Eastern country didn’t fare any better at its fifth appearance at the four-year event, leaving at the group stage after losses to Russia and Uruguay.
