Abstrak
After a long qualifying process packed with surprises (Italy missing out as the reigning European champions) and last minute drama (both Egypt and Peru missed out on penalties), the FIFA World Cup 2022 kicked off on the 20th of November in Qatar. With 32 countries and over 800 players representing nearly 300 clubs globally, it measured up to more than 12 billion EUR in the players' current estimated market value total. In this short piece, we explore what the small and interconnected world of football stars looks like and even make a few efforts and compare success in soccer to social networks.
