A Beats & Rhymes FC message from Germany midfielder Julia Simic

Beyond just the dance celebrations and headphone-clad emergences from a team bus on match day, there is a whole world more connecting football and music. Beats & Rhymes FC tells the stories of how a song lights the fuse for a player, how bands and artists colourise their lives outside the game, and how music itself can bond an entire team.
