The Vice President of the United States, JD Vance, participated in the match between Dortmund's "Borussia" and South Korea's "Ulsan Hyundai" as part of the group stage of the FIFA Club World Cup. This was reported by www.euro-football.ru.
The politician appeared in the stands of the stadium, which was half-filled as usual. The number of spectators for this tournament is typically low.
During the opening ceremony of the championship, U.S. President Donald Trump participated and held meetings with FIFA President Gianni Infantino. Starting from 2025, the Club World Cup will be held in a new format: a total of 32 clubs will be divided into 8 groups, and the top 16 teams will advance to the next stage.
In 2026, it will be one of the three host countries, along with the United States, Canada, and Mexico, to host the World Cup. These changes are significant in the international football arena and will enhance the level and interest of the competition.
