      When his older brother revealed to the international press that his parents lied about their country of origin so they’d be granted asylum rather than being sent back to Ghana- I wonder if his parents were like ‘we kept it a secret for 20 years, we tell you and you can’t keep your mouth shut for 5 minutes’

      My boyfriend who has no interest in futbol was rooting for Spain because of Williams. He said he was working hard and liked his hair.

      My paranoid ass would have waited till later so she doesn’t get mugged for it. Sweet gesture though and has to feel good to be able to do that for her!

      For people who didn’t watch the game, Williams came on as a sub and Spain immediately turned the pressure on. It was relentless after he came on. He even assisted in the game winner.

      With no shoes, mind you!!

      His story is incredible. I’m so happy he got to shine in the finals!

      Weird how the family of the winners are caged in unable to share the moment with them, but a multiple felon and sex offender is up there on the stage getting in the way of all the team celebrations like he won it himself
