“Very sad to see this behavior from Mitchell Marsh with the World Cup Trophy, which has a great deal of respect,” someone tweeted. Another person on X wrote, “Shame on you, Mitchell Marsh, for doing this with the World Cup trophy.”
On the microblogging site, a third person shared a photo of Marsh along with the caption, “Australia Mitchell Marsh sitting on a sofa with his feet on the World Cup trophy.” This conduct seems discourteous. Show some consideration for the WC trophy. Values are significantly impacted by culture and civilization. A fourth posted a photo of Marsh holding the trophy and said, “In our country, even buying a bicycle is worshipped; they consider it an honor to set foot on the priceless World Cup trophy.”
