Marca Poll: 82% of Asian Users Support Spain in World Cup Final
On July 18, Spanish newspaper Marca published a poll involving over 20,000 users worldwide, asking which team they support in the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina. Users were required to state their continent of origin, and Marca claimed to have verified IP addresses to confirm geographic locations. The results show strong global support for Spain, with Asia at 82% for Spain and 18% for Argentina, Africa at 88% for Spain, Oceania at 86%, North America at 72%, South America at 59%, and Europe at 53%. The article notes that Marca's Spanish origin may affect the poll's credibility. The data was republished by Hupu, a Chinese sports community.
