Lines surveyed 3,000 US soccer fans to find out which soccer fans, team, USMNT player, and manager were the most attractive and which home kit was considered the best looking.

Christian Pulisic – the biggest thing to come out of Hershey, Pennsylvania, since the Reese’s Cup – was named the most attractive player on the USMNT roster, and the US kit was named the best of the team.
But, as far as the fans are concerned, the 2022 World Cup hosts have come out on top.
That’s right. If you’re looking for the best looking soccer fans, you’ll need to head south of the border… and then south a few more borders to Argentina.

“The sexiest fan in the world” Ivana Knoll will not want to be investigated for this survey.
Brazil came in second, and the US came home in third place (which is good, because we’re all cute as hell).
Mexico came home in fourth place – capping off a strong performance from football-mad Latin America – while France finished fifth, marking Europe’s all-time favorite fan base, with Knoll’s Croatia trailing behind in sixth.
A lot of times when you see surveys like this, it feels like they’re designed to make you go, “What?!?!” and start clicking-clacking your frustrations on social media.

But this one? No, I could see everything. It followed. I mean, you can argue about the schedule, but it’s not like when the New York Times comes out and says, “No, really, guys; we don’t believe Billy Joel is one of the 30 greatest American songwriters,” like rage-bait.
As for the most attractive team, that honor went to Brazil, and Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni is considered the biggest boss among bench managers.
