Charity events like Soccer Aid added to football's entertainment value with spontaneous moments. Kasi Flava, a South African football offshoot, prioritizes showboating and enjoyment in matches, featuring teams like Covid-19 FC.

Senior academic Tarminder Kaur describes Kasi football as an art form rooted in human drama, highlighting its cultural significance in local communities.
