During his narrator appearance, the black actor who has played the role of the US president the most times, told the crowd that society can be brought together through soccer: “We come together here as one great tribe and the Earth is the tent we all live in. Soccer spans the globe, uniting nations in their love of the beautiful game. What unites nations also brings communities together.”

Morgan is also recognized worldwide for having represented God in numerous productions. The memes in the networks have not waited to award him that role again.

In addition, he seemed to represent it perfectly again when in the middle of the ceremony he sat on the ground to accompany Ghanim al Muftaha young man with Caudal Regression Syndrome (a rare disease that prevents him from moving the lower part of the spine), known for creating content on social networks under the motto Nothing is impossible.

However, the allusions to his “deity” are fewer than those that criticize him for having offered to appear, for money, at the opening ceremony of a championship reviled for not respecting the human rights of workers, immigrants, women and of homosexuals.
