Mundial #33

Headlining this ‘Rebel’ issue of our favourite football mag are two players of note in outspoken ex-USWNT winger Megan Rapinoe and the fiery (Super) Mario Balotelli, part of a set of features exploring what it means to rebel in football today. They're joined by the likes of Hamburg's anti-establishment St. Pauli, the 2021 shutdown of a United-Liverpool match, and a profile of Abubaker Abed, a young football journalist-turned-war reporter in Gaza.  

Plus: a Cameroon kit banned by FIFA, Welsh women's Sunday League, 21 rebels with causes, and a load of ‘shithousery’. 

About Mundial:

MUNDIAL is the number one multi-platform choice for the intelligent football fan. Exploring the intersection between sport and culture, our work is sharp, funny, stylish, irreverent, and nostalgic — it speaks directly to its audience because it knows who they are and what they want. Rooted in authentic fan culture, it knows who they support, what they wear, where they drink, and where they want to go next. MUNDIAL celebrates their heroes, teaches them about wider issues, makes them laugh (and occasionally cry). It takes them around the world and ends up on their doorstep. It’s created for them, by them. It reminds them why they love football.
