Soccer or Football, to any Chinese it is an (ancient) game known as "足球" that everyone loves....
Even Xi can't help sharing his World Cup enthusiasm with the Qatari as the finals approach, be there Chinese team or not.

Singapore is watching closely at how the Saudis are gradually but surely "de-risking" away from their decades long "alliance" with the Americans without triggering negative reactions from the Yanks.
Closer ties between China and the Middle East have raised concerns in Washington DC and European capitals. The Saudi oil minister went so far as to say he would “ignore” Western suspicions over the warming ties between the two countries. “I actually ignore it because … as a business person . you go where opportunity comes your way,” Saudi Arabia’s Minister of Energy Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman said, according to Reuters. “We don’t have to be facing any choice which has to do with (saying) either with us or with the others.”

It is a foregone conclusion. The US is not able to provide what Saudi is aiming for.

Once in a hundred year change - when falling value of US$ has lesser potential than a giant Chinese tech company can offer for Saudi's future.
