 | England international Wubben-Moy will not watch 2022 World Cup: We have clear values and many of them are not reflected in Qatar4-12-2022 |
The England international has said she won`t be watching the World Cup in Qatar.
As reported by Lotte Wubben-Moy, she will refuse to watch the World Cup games due to the fact that the tournament will be held in Qatar.
It`s complicated. We all have clear values in the England team. Many of them are not reflected in Qatar in the way we see them. I think this is a difficult conversation, there are a lot of discussions around this.
Personally, I will support the men`s team, but I will not watch matches. It`s hard to talk about it. But still, we are one team, we represent England, and we know that they have the opportunity to play in the World Cup. It`s hard to look at it more broadly.
Sport is a very powerful tool for change. I think it would be naive to underestimate him. I saw that many players have a strong point of view on all this. I salute them and wish them all the best in their efforts to express their position during this World Cup.
Many of these players may never get the opportunity to play in the World Cup again, so I can`t comment on their decision to go there. Many in their place would have made that choice.
But I see sport as a vehicle for change. It is important that they seize the opportunity to get them – in any way possible, ” said the Arsenal and England defender.
