Popular events like the football World Cup and other international sporting occasions are essential in easing international tensions and releasing patriotic emotions in a safe way. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Global sports

events

are considered to be the catalyst between the worldwide nations to build relationships. Games like the Olympics and

world

cups that are organised by the respective governing bodies would bring in positive harmony and eradicate tensions. I completely agree with

this

notion and provide necessary examples to support my opinion in

this

essay.

First

and foremost, international

events

like cricket and football

world

cup's are the most liked sports across the globe. International Cricket council conducts a Cricket event every four years which invites

players

from all over the

world

to take part irrespective of their political barriers. Statistics show that

this

is a highly adopted one,

for example

, by all regions of the

world

which are viewed and respected by 43 per cent of the global population. Adding to

this

, football is another game that has the accepted audience spread across. On many ,occasions

players

don't consider their respective nations political barriers while playing with the utmost sportive nature.

On the other hand

, there are certain situations where

players

lost their temperament, which lead to a quarrel between countries. The rivalry between regions because of their cultural differences makes some of the participants lose their cool behaviours at times. India and Pakistan,

for example

, are the neighbouring nations who always shows rivalry during their participation to win the game for their nation,

consequently

sometimes leads to bullying and eventually to fights between

players

.

Although

there some exceptional situations like these, these

events

are catalysts to bring peace between countries. To conclude, international sports

events

acts as a bridge between regions to build positive relationships and ease their tensions. I strongly agree with

this

thought and suggest more and more

such

events

to be planned going forward, even though there are negligible situations that lead to fights between

players

.
