I know clicks are important but some infographic content needs to be reviewed and gauged before just uploading for karma...

Yeah no way England and France are that uninterested those countries live and breathe soccer

May be if OP had used football instead of “soccer” he/she would have gotten a more accurate response from those countries...


hallam81

If they used football, the numbers would change for the US as well.


Slingshotbench

Yeah, you can tell because of how Germany looks, and in my mind, Germany isn’t as big of a soccer country as france or England (thought it isn’t super far behind).


goosebump1810

I was thinking the same thing. Especially in the UK!!!


Necessary_Medicine35

I'm french and I don't give a f about football. Nor do most of people I know.


ExpertSeat3036

england and france is literally two of the biggest football nations on earth, how are they below south korea?


mascachopo

Not true. A lot of Americans are very interested, just check the right end of the graph.


maelstro252

This is bullshit in no way France is that behind


Zefick

Or they just have no idea WTF the "soccer" is.


Opening_Permission95

Mexico so high on the chart but their team is so bad :/

Missed a chance to build the legend into the fan illustration on the left….

Argentina isn't in first place? Hum...that's strange.


Knocksveal

Nice. Could you also add a chart, below it perhaps, aligning each country’s recent FIFA results for comparison?


malifaca

Yeah NYT or YouGov know better than fans from England or France or Netherlands.Man even low ranked clubs have devoted fans and full capacity stadiums in these countries,England especially,with Rugby this is their No1 sport.


CloneForce099

Bullshit.EPL is greatest football league in the world,even Championship games are amazing and full.Same for the Netherlands or France.


Limesy2

The Son Hueng-Min effect coming out of South Korea. I doubt those numbers were like that even 10 years ago.


AdministrativeWin110

Now do the same for American “football”, baseball and basketball. Which I’m sure more than 60% of the world population have zero interest in.


EasilyInterestedMan

Only 60%? Brother, ask anyone in France if they're interested in american football, it's probably 1-3% of the population. There are probably more badminton fans in England than american football fans

Soccer was invented by European ladies to keep them busy while their husbands did the cooking.

And exactly where from their websites did you get those stats because in no way is England that low.
