Euro2016 – Many people are rooting for the Hungarian national football team in Uganda

The amazing performance of the Hungarian national football team at EURO2016 is well appreciated in Uganda! The news of the guys’ successes spread rapidly everywhere, especially as many people follow the events of the Euros and pay attention to other teams as well as their nations’ footballers. And Uganda in Africa, not even participating in the game, greatly supports the team and congratulates on their performance, reports globoport.hu.

Football seems to play such a significant role in people’s lives that, when it comes to the European Championship, nations are brought together, and Hungary is no exception of that. The Hungarian footballers trigger more and more attention with their surprisingly astonishing performance, and the people of Hungary are getting really proud, sentimental and patriotic! While the players keep fighting with courage and determination, together, as a team.

Yet, not only Hungarians are happy about the team going forward: people in Kampala, Uganda are sending many messages and they also call the “Hungarian house”, congratulate on scored goals. That is why the Hungarians in Kampala decided to hold a Hungarian EURO2016 day on Wednesday (June 22), when the Dzsudzsák-led team played against Portugal. The Koreans, Ugandans, Kenyans, Rwandans and of course, all of the few Hungarians in Kampala had a fantastic time rooting for the team together.

Their hearts beat as one when they are watching the team of Hungary fighting on the field for the country. The locals of Kampala mentioned that the team seemed to be a big family: the coach was watching closely what his sons were doing, while the audience greatly supported the boys, who would always run over to them, to embrace the happiness together after scoring a goal, instead of playing the somewhat usual self-centred and self-admiring show off that illustrates how awesome they think themselves.
