At Kindred, our 1,350 employees represent 52 nationalities across more than 10 locations. In Team Kindred 7 by 7, we asked seven questions to some of our players representing the seven offices in this year's tournament: Australia, Belgium, Denmark, England, France, Spain and Sweden.
The World Cup is a big happening for Kindred, but in this series we had a chat with our players off-side, kicking it with personal memories, experiences and predictions. In this blog post, we are introducing one of our players from the London, England office: Deni from France. Deni has been with Kindred for almost three years, where she works as an Account Manager for the Belgian market. Three years in London, yet no love for England in the semi-finals against Croatia. For Deni, it's Allez les Bleus all the way!
1. Who are you cheering for and why?
F.R.A.N.C.E. Easy, it’s the best team and we have young and talented players.
2. What’s your favourite World Cup moment?
When France won the World Cup 20 years ago. I was young, but I remember running around and dancing in the street.
3. If Deni was a famous footballer, what would your position be?
Excellent question! After a lot of reflection, I would say that I'm a left-back because I have athletic skills and I’m resistant. And as Napoleon said: «La meilleure attaque c’est la défense».
4. What’s the most legendary World Cup kit?
Cameroon 1990, thanks to Roger Milla and his awesome Makossa move!
5. Who’s the all-time greatest World Cup player?
Zinédine Zidane, of course.
6. Russian Vodka or English Ale?
Well none, I'm French so I’d rather go for Champagne!
7. World Cup 2018, who will take home the trophy?
Really? France
