It’s not easy putting into words the intense passion that soccer (or for the rest of the world, football) fans feel for their sport, so we put it into photos. As Visa heads into the FIFA Confederations Cup 2017 this month with new ways to pay for fans at the event, we captured the spectacular pride shown by the eight nations competing this year. May the best footballers win, sure, but for fans showing their true spirit for the game, victory is just part of the fun.
