Thank you to YouTube subscriber Mae Flor Samson for asking me to provide ideas on this IELTS question:
‘How do you think international sports can affect relations between different countries?’
For some reason, IELTS loves this topic, and you may just see it in IELTS Writing Task 2 or Speaking Part 3.
In IELTS Speaking Part 3, you can pivot, and then provide interesting examples.
For this question, I would say, ‘Honestly, I do not think athletic events have any effect on politics or international relations. However, sports events do definitely impact the way different nationalities can get along.’

In Brussels, in 1985, before the European Cup Final, British fans rioted, leading to 39 deaths.
