Football is one of the sports that is loved by people all over the world. Football does not only function as a sport activity, but also as entertainment that influences various sectors, starting from the economic, political, social and cultural fields. On top of this, football is a sport full of interests that influence how a country's politics runs. This research uses the case study method of the cancellation of Indonesia to host the 2023 U-20 World Cup. The results show that religion and political interests have an influence on the occurrence of this case. Although there was no official statement from FIFA regarding this decision, the public considers that Indonesia's rejection of Israel was the main factor for FIFA to announce the relocation of the location for this prestigious competition event.
