And yet something I do like about football is the way it can make public, certain tensions that governments and politicians try to hide or pretend aren't there - at least to the outside world. Like the way Spain is having to deal with a racism problem its government pretended it never had, largely because the world sees how it treats black players in football matches. Not saying football solves these problems, but it does a good job of bringing them out into the open.
