The USMNT might be light-years away from winning the actual World Cup, but, today, it was a crowned the champions of a much more prestigious World Cup.
Folks over at the School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine decided to see who would win the World Cup if it were based off average body mass index. The results?
A U.S. victory.
Unlike in the real World Cup, the U.S. emerges from the Group of Death in first place. This isn’t highly surprising, seeing that the U.S. has the highest BMI out of any nation at the World Cup. The U.S. flies by its competition, landing in the finals after knocking off South Korea, Ecuador, and Croatia to reach the finals.
On the other side of the bracket, American rivals Mexico barely edges its way into the Final. But there’s no contest in the last game. The U.S. team dominates from the start and finishes with a bang. Champions.
