In a viral celebration of digital passion and fan power, Bangladesh has clinched the Champion title in Facebook Followers Cup, organized by a renowned football platform Transfermarkt—defeating global football giant Argentina in the grand finale.
Unlike traditional sports tournaments, this global face-off was all about social media engagement, where 64 nations competed in a knockout format. Each "match" was decided by Facebook reaction counts—Bangladesh was represented by the ❤️ Love reaction, while Argentina by the 🧡 Care emoji.
Bangladesh powered through the rounds with overwhelming support, even toppling Brazil in the Round of 16. But it was the final held on Friday, April 4, that showcased the nation’s unmatched digital fandom.
Over 800,000 reactions for Bangladesh compared to just around 16,000 for Argentina, delivering a landslide win that left no room for doubt.
The win highlights the strength and unity of Bangladeshi fans online, proving once again that when it comes to passion—be it football or Facebook—Bangladesh never backs down.
