As World Cup fever swirls, war-torn Yemen gets its own football miracle
SANAA/ADEN: Thousands of miles from North America, where the World Cup is bringing together soccer fans from countries that are otherwise at odds, one of football’s least heralded nations is experiencing its own moment of unity. In a stadium in the ancient city of Sanaa, hundreds have turned out to watch a match between two teams from areas controlled by different factions in Yemen’s 12-year-old civil war. Since May, a truce signed in 2022 has seemed firm enough to allow a resumption of the professional Yemen National League for the first time since 2014. Photos are taken and pennants are exchanged between the captains of Wahda Sanaa, whose city is under the control of the Houthi militia, and Shaab Hadramout, whose province is controlled by a Saudi-backed regional coalition and by separatists. The referee starts the match. A Wahda Sanaa player grabs his head in frustration at missing a chance — and fans in garish wigs and face paint whistle their dismay.
