Footballer's Mom Excited To See Son Play

As the FIFA World Cup 2022 is currently underway in Qatar, the excitement of football fans around the globe increases with every game. Imagine the excitement of parents, whose children are playing at the world cup, one of the world's most significant sporting tournaments.

When 27-year-old Sam Adekugbe left for Qatar, his mother couldn't be more proud. From posting his picture on her social media to share the latest updates about the team's travel to sharing her's journey, she has been participating in every way she can to level up the excitement.

Why wouldn't she? Not every aspiring footballer makes it to the national team and not every footballer makes it to the world cup. Her son did, and she is leaving no stone unturned to support him, even if it is from her home thousands of miles away from Qatar.

Football player Sam Adekugbe's mother Dee's happiness knew no bounds as she watched her son play for the Canadian football team at the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar.
