FIFA World Cup fever has officially hit the city of Inglewood.
Just before Bosnia suffered a 4–1 loss to Switzerland in a group B World Cup match at Los Angeles Stadium, hundreds of Bosnian soccer fans were seen marching down the streets of the LA County neighborhood.
The Bosnia fan base is the latest group to partake in the World Cup celebrations across the USA this summer.
The group of Bosnian fans was seen chanting “Bosnia” over the relentless beat of a drum and a chorus of claps while waving the country’s flag.
Making their way down to Los Angeles Stadium, another video emerged on X, showing the group proudly parading through Inglewood.
When kickoff began for Thursday’s game, the fans’ presence didn’t slow down as the respective Bosnian and Switzerland fans packed Los Angeles Stadium, which has been temporarily renamed from SoFi Stadium for the duration of the tournament.
The Bosnian fanbase has been on full display during the game as they have overtaken multiple sections of the stadium and have been seen waving yellow flags, while singing and cheering throughout the game.
Bosnia has been one of the most loud and proud fanbases throughout the World Cup. Before their first Group B game, where they tied Canada 1–1 at Toronto Stadium, the Balkan fans also took over the streets of the Canadian city.
Thousands gathered across downtown Toronto, making their way to the stadium while cheering, chanting, banging drums, and waving flags as they marched in unison.
While Thursday has been the first day Bosnian fans have been spotted celebrating across the streets of Los Angeles, it’s not the first time the City of Angels has felt the impact of the World Cup.
Last week, South Korean fans took over Little Tokyo where they enjoyed a watch party when they played South Africa.
