    1. If you want to really impress Trump, go for some taxes on Big Tech…boycotting the World Cup is just a decoy to quell the outrage of europeans.

      This is Trump’s plan for the US to win the world cup. Have all the European and South American countries boycott

      lmao can you imagine if half the teams dont show up haha

      and then England wins!

      and everyone tells them it doesn’t count and the English fans just cry to sleep

    4. I very much would support a boycott, but this article misses some crucial context. St Pauli might be the most explicitly left-wing top tier football club in the world. Of course they’d say this! Wake me up when Bayern joins the call…

      On the other hand, the Dutch football union has said that a boycott isn’t appropriate „yet“, but that Trump is making things complicated by „demanding a lot“. They seem to consider it more seriously than they ever even did for Qatar. I think if the Greenland story comes back in full we may indeed see a boycott and more.

      Hadn’t we all already agreed not to watch the swastika edition of the cup?

    6. A lot of fans and many players planning to head towards world cup matches aren’t going to get anywhere near a match. They’ll be grabbed by ICE and deported.

    7. I think almost nothing would have affected Trump more than a European boycott of the World Cup. And when this comes from the president of St. Pauli, it’s worth discussing. At the same time, such a boycott from Europe would be extremely difficult to implement. Much worse than a full boycott of a Summer Olympics. Trump would have made many provocative statements and threats about 3000% tariffs and the use of nuclear weapons. We had figured that out. We’re getting used to all his nonsense now. He’s full of shit, that’s just the way it is. But a European boycott would be difficult to implement because football is such an ingrained part of European culture. We have seen the problems for a long time. The major international sports organizations have become too corrupt. It is now at a point where it would be better to close them down completely and start new, clean organizations from scratch. Sports are the propaganda arena of dictatorships. But then it’s Saturday and the football match starts, your club and everything… It’s just a matter of realizing it. Europe is once again the last bastion of democracy and the free world. Our vulnerability is ourselves, our old culture and attachment to traditions. Catharsis, at first it feels cruel, but then something more sustainable, stronger and more intelligent comes in its place. Boycott the World Cup in the USA in 2026!

    8. USA could be the only country in the World Cup and still loose it. The President only wants the trophy for his collection of ill gotten gains. Don’t come to the USA for the cup, it’s a hellscape of idiots. We have freedoms as citizens that are being taken away, what makes you think they won’t do the same to noncitizens here for the cup.

      Germany is a big football federation, and they won’t pull out of the World Cup. I appreciate the sentiment from this football chief, but Germany would never consider pulling out of the most prestigious footballing tournament.

      I can’t see teams boycotting, even though they probably should. The best thing they can do is beat the yanks so they don’t get out of the group stages (Paraguay and Australia about to become the most supported teams in the world) and, as doubtful as this is, it would be nice to see players use their platform to call out America.

      Just move the games in the US to Canada and Mexico. No need to boycott those countries, they’re still reliable

    12. AstroSpoony on

      There should be a separate World Cup: the Peace World Cup, where the US wins directly. The whole world is invited: Russia, North Korea, Afghanistan, Iran, and any other regimes that want to take part.
      In the end, Trump is declared the inventor of football and is awarded a medal

      I would totally support a boycott, not going to watch any match or match summary.

    14. ResponsibleSea4444 on

      Even as a soccer fan I am definately for a boycott the World Cup. All the European and South American Countries should unite and not go. Sometimes our values are more important than playing soccer.
      The more our boycott would embarrass the mentally sick orange idiot in the white house the better.

      Fifa an DFB are almost as corrupt as trump … this will never happen. Not going to watch the Swastika-Cup.

    16. fifa bring corrupt AND complicit with their illustrious orange one won’t help.

    17. Tyrannosaurusblanch on

      Trump will just claim the US won the cup then.

      His plan all along. Just another trophy for his cabinet.

    18. PleasantWay7 on

      It is impossible to measure but I’m sure World Cup will be a lot lower than it would have been if the US wasn’t going full gestapo on everyone. Never go full gestapo.

      Yes, yes… back to the Cold War era of boycott in world athletic events…/s

    21. Visible_Goose_4116 on

      Just realise that europe has not boycotted Russia or Qatar. As a football fan, i hope we boycot this world up collectively as europe.

    22. Please avoid USA. You may just get shot by one of their ICE agents, especially if you’re not white
