How are the country abbreviations for the score bugs determined for the World Cup? The broadcasters will call it el paises bajos but the abbreviation is NED, or Suecia and the abbreviation is SWE but they don't seem to be English (NET) or the primary language of the country playing either as best I can tell? #WorldCup

    @dougwade@mastodon.xyz I can't fully answer this, but I do know that the Netherlands (NED) is one of the Low Countries, and I think that's what "paises bajos " means, isn't it?
