Some people think that global sports, such as The Football World Cup and The Olympics are a good way to bring different nations together. However, others believe that these games create more competition instead of friendship. I agree with former view and believe that these events largely foster internationally unity.
On the one hand, some advocates believe that international sports bring nations closer and promote unity among nations. In other words, when players represent their country abroad, it is not only beneficial for the country global profile but it also strengthens the bond between nations. For example, the international events such as FIFA world cup which was held in Canada, brought people from different nations at one place for over a months, providing a platform for cultural exchange and mutual understanding.
On the other hand, a group of individuals argue that these events create competition, not friendship between countries. It creates rivalry among nations as countries compete against each other to prove their superiority. To elaborate, this competition often create conflict between the countries. For example, when India and Pakistan participated in Cricket world Cup matches the players often exchange heated word against each other and atmosphere becomes tense. Thus, it will create more conflict between nations.
In conclusion, although that international sport events sometimes lead to rivalry and conflict between nations, I believe that they predominantly promote unity and strengthen the bond between nations.
