Congratulations to Jude Bellingham on his C1 Cup victory and securing a major deal.

Few locations in the world have as much World Cup passion as Lebanon, and the fact that this year’s event is happening so close to home makes it more memorable. There should be joy because this is the first time the well-known athletic mega event has taken place in the Middle East.

Surprisingly, this year’s tournament has been full of shocks; past champions Germany and Spain were both eliminated in the early stages of the game, while Morocco, the first country in Africa and the Arab world to reach the semi-finals, achieved a first in tournament history.
