This competition started in 1960…
It has roots going back older than the Football League with the World Club Championship between the English and Scottish FA Cup winners in 1876.
 
As a New Yorker who was directly affected by the September 11th attacks, the fact that Saudi Arabia is hosting the Club World Cup puts a stain on the entire event for me.
What?! That’s a very strange take.

It was a multi-National terrorist organisation that were the perpetrators of that, not Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is an ally of the UK and USA.

Seems odd that you’re a New Yorker yet don’t understand the finer details of it all. Just because some Saudi nationals were involved doesn’t have anything in relation to Saudi Arabia as a country.

Yeah, pisses me off every time Germany hosts a tournament. Oh England was at war with France at the battle of Waterloo too so the French hosting a tournament offends me.
Then there was the Spanish Armarda coming over to have a go at Sir Francis Drake, interrupting his game of bowls on Plymouth Hoe, so a Spanish tournament offends me.
Then there's the fucking Roman's and the Vikings.....

This is the US media narrative which began last week when LIV golf merged with the PGA.

They've now moved on to reporting other sports they are kicking off about being hosted there.
