Fan-centric pre-match ceremony to debut at @FIFAWorldCup 2026
FIFA has unveiled a bold new vision for pre-match ceremonies at the FIFA World Cup 2026 designed to deepen the connection between players and fans while elevating a moment already rich with anticipation:
We understand that the matter is still under investigation, and we will maintain close communication with the South African police on this issue.
The Chinese government has zero tolerance toward the production and sale of counterfeit goods, and we support the South African government in taking firm action against such illegal activities. At the same time, all actions must be conducted on the basis of the rule of law and due process. Should the suspect be found guilty, China will work with South Africa on law enforcement in this regard.
