Flagmakers in Bangladesh are doing a roaring trade weeks ahead of the World Cup, but no-one is interested in the home nation's colours, the money is all on pennants for Lionel Messi's Argentina and Neymar's Brazil. Fans across Bangladesh hold flag-waving processions to honour their favourite team. Last week, a video of supporters marching with a 200 metre-long Argentina flag in the northwestern town of Madarganj went viral on social media. The impoverished country first saw live World Cup matches in 1982.
