FIFA had a new award. It was called the Peace Prize. This award made many people talk. It showed sports and politics are linked. The FIFA boss, Gianni Infantino, gave the prize. Donald Trump, an ex-U.S. President, won it. The event was in Washington D.C. It was before the World Cup draw.

Some people did not like this. They asked why a politician got a sports award. Mr. Infantino said the prize is for peace work. He said winners help bring people together. The event was in the U.S. capital. The next World Cup will be in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Leaders from these countries came.

Mr. Trump got a trophy. He gave a speech. He said his work saved lives. The event seemed happy. FIFA also said many tickets were sold. People want to watch the World Cup.

But some people were worried. They think FIFA should not mix with politics. They felt giving the prize to Mr. Trump was not right. Critics think FIFA is now supporting politics. This could harm FIFA. It might make it harder for FIFA to unite people. The award itself had problems. Mr. Infantino said it was for peace. But it made the award political. We wonder about future prizes. Will they be for peace or for politics? The World Cup is coming soon. We will see what people think about this first prize.
