10 Things I learnt this world cup

10 Things I learnt this world cup (An Indian Perspective):
1. Netherlands is also called Dutch and Holland.
2. Paul octopus is not some Indian phenomenon created by Aaj Tak (like I initially thought him to be).
3. If you find the arguments of Netherland and Spain fans more amusing than the match you are not a football fan.
4. If you are not an ardent fan you can fall asleep in finals especially if it drags goes into extra time
5. If Sania Mirza and Maria Sharpova don’t make it to first Page during Wimbledon, the World cup is going on at the same time.
6. Footballers are not unknown to wrestling moves. I am sure I saw a Rock Bottom and a Karate Kick.
7. Even if you don’t support a team you should get your face painted it makes a nice profile picture…. Seriously.
8. It’s a good reason to stay from home late at night.
9. Shakira is as sticky as Himesh Reshamiya (Still can’t get the Waka Waka out of my head).
10. Shakira is still alive.
