Watford FC has pulled off a surprise win against Liverpool with a final score of 3-0. While on the field, Watford FC players boasted a prominent Bitcoin logo on their jerseys.
Cryptocurrencies are taking the sports world by storm – and one team has just bested all odds while sporting the Bitcoin logo on their sleeves. Could it be a sign of good luck?
Watford FC Takes Victory
The previously undefeated Liverpool met their match yesterday with a stunning defeat at the hands of Watford FC. Watford FC managed to secure the victory in a blowout, winning 3-0. They are currently the only team to beat them this entire season. Could the sponsorship they were sporting have brought them good luck? That’s what many in the cryptocurrency community are saying: the team was rocking a bright Bitcoin logo on their sleeves. It is prominently seen in some photos shared by Nik (@nikcantmine) today.Bitcoin was confirmed as a sleeve partner for the team in December 2019, according to the team’s official website. The sponsorship is being done by sports betting brand Sportsbet.io. They called it an attempt to “challenge the accepted norms.” However, Watford FC is still a far way away from the leaders in their group. They are currently 17th out of 20 in the Premier League, with Liverpool leading the pack by far.Incase you weren’t paying attention today, @WatfordFC (the premier league team with the Bitcoin logo on their arm sleeve) beat undefeated Liverpool 3-0. The only team to beat them this season, with only 11 games left in the season.

The Cryptocurrency Craze in Sports
The sports world has been looking at the cryptocurrency industry with significant interest. From payments to digital collectibles, the collaboration has much to offer fans as well.[jnews_block_28 second_title=”Featured Stories” header_type=”heading_5″ number_post=”2″ boxed=”true” show_border=”true”]
Last year, we saw some major sponsorship deals between cryptocurrency companies and sports teams. In just the Premier League alone, both the Wolverhampton Wanderers and Newcastle United have collaborated with cryptocurrency projects for promotional purposes – and so many others have done the same. There’s no reason to believe this will stall in 2020. Cryptocurrency exchanges have even been jumping in on this trend, seeing it as a novel way to expand their visibility and user base.
