But this year's World Cup has also given us reminders of kindness, courage, family and connection.

Sometimes, the best assists happen off the field. ❤️

So firefighters sifted through the ashes for the family, hoping to find anything worth saving.

After hours of searching, they found this: a lost family wedding ring buried in the rubble.

Kindness wins. 💗
