World Cup 2022 is about to wrap up this weekend, and one of the emerging storylines has been the growing solidarity between fans from different Arab nations.
The success of Morocco, the first African and largely Arabic-speaking country to enter the semi-finals, is a big contributing factor to this, but many fans have also been united in their support of the Palestinian cause during the tournament.
This week on Nothing is Foreign, we unpack these moments of solidarity happening between nations, and how the World Cup has provided a venue for both people to celebrate but also speak out about tensions in the region.
