Experts Opinion

This FIFA World Cup created quite a stir from day one of initiation, which happened to be overwhelming for various football fans. Besides, the exit of their favorite teams also did not go well with the fans. That could be the reason for seeing football dreams.”
She further adds, “Apart from this, football happens to be a competitive sport, and if you are competitive in nature, then there are chances of you seeing this dream.”
The study was conducted by ThePleasantDream, one of the leading websites on dream interpretation. The team undertook the evaluation to monitor what people dream about during the “football season.”
