2023 World Cup Final India vs Australia
I was not there in 2003. My parents were.
Today as we switched on the TV to see a stadium filled with blue, I noticed the small smile on their faces. I will never understand that feeling of loss from 2003 but I do understand 2023.
World Cup is not about those 6 hours in that 22 yard pitch with 22 men fighting over a title. It never was. It's always about those hundreds of people supporting them. From coaches, physicians to that miniscule person finishing the seams of the ball. It's about those screams, whichever team it may be. It's about the adrenaline of the crowd, the smell of sweat in the air and the glimmer of hope in their eyes. It's about the sheer happiness. For once people forget about the problems to see some boys play with a bat and a ball and escape the real world.
I don't know about australia. I haven't been there nor have seen their reaction to this World Cup final. I can only presume it's not much different from those sights in Ahmedabad. But I do know my people. It unites them and there's nothing that makes me more happy than to see everyone on the same side.
Today the Indian team will not play for a title for which they have waited 12 years. They will play for that rickshaw driver saving up his whole weeks earnings to buy a good meal on the day of the finals. For that person standing outside a retail shop because they don't have TV at home. For that associate who has taken a leave even after the HR did not grant it. For that student who has looked up from their books towards the TV which had not been switched on for months.
And I think they know that. And I think they also know that even if they lost, they will have succeeded in providing a 6 hr escape to a country of millions. And I think it's wonderful.
Go team India! We are proud of you!
okay, so I haven't said anything about this until now frankly because I have been processing it, because the situation is downright insane and i have been seething with rage.
but what the spanish federation is doing to jenni hermoso is some of the most infuriating, disgusting, vile, behaviour I have seen in football.
jenni hermoso was sexually assaulted by luis rubiales, president of the spanish football federation (RFEF). he kissed her without her consent, which is sexual assault. period.
and then rubiales and the RFEF have the unmitigated gall to say that not only was it "consensual", but that hermoso is lying for saying that she was assaulted.
they are saying that a victim of sexual assault, AN ASSAULT THAT WAS CAUGHT ON INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION, WITH MILLIONS OF WITNESSES, is lying.
luis rubiales and the RFEF want to sue jenni for standing up for herself and for daring to fight back. the people on twitter (mostly men, and that doesn't surprise me) are analysing her body language to justify it and say that she wanted it.
why is the victim's word not enough? why is her integrity the one under scrutiny, rather than the attacker? if a woman whose assault was caught in full view on camera with millions of witnesses will not be believed, what does that say about us?
"why didn't she fight back?"
"she should have said something."
"she could have spoken up right after."
"we believe victims, they should speak up."
"well no one saw it."
"don't you see that she wanted it?"
we always, ALWAYS, say shit like this, and we are doing it now, when the evidence is literally staring us in our faces.
fuck the RFEF, and fuck everyone who refuses to believe jenni hermoso.
te creemos jenni, y estamos contigo.
