华人关注世界杯 波士顿有望主办2026年世界杯赛事

【波士顿双语网记者李强报道】俄罗斯世界杯足球赛今天(6月14日)开幕,将吸引波士顿地区众多的华人球迷通过电视观看直播。13日,国际足联(FIFA)宣布,2026年的世界杯将由美国、加拿大和墨西哥联合主办,而位于波士顿西南郊、著名的吉列体育场有望成为赛场之一。

据悉,由于申办2022年世界杯失利,美国联合了加拿大、墨西哥,于今年3月初向FIFA提交了申办方案。该方案包括了波士顿在内的23个可能主办城市。现在三国申办世界杯成功,波士顿很可能入选最终将主板世界杯赛事的16个城市。1994年美国世界杯期间,吉列体育场的前身福克斯宝路体育场就曾经主办过赛事。

目前,吉列体育场的东主克拉夫集团(Kraft Group)也是著名的职业橄榄球(NFL)新英格兰爱国者队和职业足球(MLS)革命队的老板。克拉夫集团的总裁克拉夫(Robert Kraft)先生是此次三国申办世界杯联合会的荣誉主席。

波士顿市长马丁华殊对申办委员会表示热烈的祝贺。他在推特上写道:「市政厅今晚将亮起红色,庆祝北美三国被选为2026年世界杯主办地。我很高兴将有机会向国际足联展示最棒的庆祝活动,向球员和球迷,并向全世界展示我们伟大的城市。」
波士顿曾想申办2024年夏季奥运会,由于民众反对和缺乏公众支持而不得不放弃。而主办2026世界杯则和主办2024奥运会不同,比赛将依赖于现有设施,不需要新建场馆,拥有66000个座位的吉列体育场将承担麻州地区的六场比赛。波士顿市政府官员相信,世界杯的收入会促进当地经济发展,也足够支付人员在内的所有开支。

市长马丁华殊刚刚作为东道主参加了在波士顿举行的全美市长大会。来自美国各地近千名市长出席了本次大会,部分加拿大城市的市长也列席了会议。市长们就枪支控制、毒品管制和气候变化等迫切问题展开了讨论并达成多项共识。 11日,大会通过的决议呼吁国会通过法案,禁止攻击性武器,并表示各个城市之间将加强合作,共同应对全球气候变化所带来的挑战。
