FIFA警告特朗普 别用政治干预世界杯申办!
U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted a threat to countries opposing North America's bid to host the 2026 World Cup -- and the global soccer organization FIFA promptly pointed to ethics rules prohibiting any nation from wielding "undue influence."

上周四,特朗普扬言美国“誓要”主办此项赛事,并且威胁称,美国可能会向那些反对它的国家撤回“支持”。Several European nations -- including Russia, France and Belgium -- have already announced their support for Morocco. The country will also be backed by other African nations, which hold a significant percentage of FIFA votes, according to ESPN.
