Until the World Cup began in mid-June, Caroline Corley had never watched a football match.
The 22-year-old graduate of Rutgers University says her interest piqued when she learned that both Brazil and Morocco, two powerhouses of football (or soccer in the US), would use her small hometown, Basking Ridge, as their base during the opening round of the tournament.
She could hardly believe that this quiet community in central New Jersey, was set to play a part in an event of such global significance.
She watched the USA vs Paraguay game on 12 June, then the Morocco vs Brazil game the next day, anMore...d has been a convert to the beautiful game ever since.
The Moroccan team, ranked sixth in the world and number one in Africa, set up residency at the Somerset Hotel and continue to train at the local Pingree School between games.
