By now, we all know that France is the champion of the 2018 FIFA World Cup Final, besting Croatia by 4 goals to 2. But what helped cinch that win for France were seven Muslim football players — Adil Rami, Djibril Sidibé, Benjamin Mendy, Paul Pogba , N’Golo Kanté, Nabil Fekir and Ousmane Dembélé. That means that one-third of the team were Muslim.
As Raza Rehman (Pakistani scholar) wrote on tweeter: The team that included players from Angola, Algeria, Congo, Cameroon, Mali, Morocco, Senegal, Nigeria with Muslims and Christians won the football World Cup 2018 carrying the team motto,” Our Differences Unite Us.” Congratulations France!
