Yasser Al-Misehal was the president of Saudi football. He left his job because the national team played poorly in the 2026 World Cup.

Yasser Al-Misehal 曾任沙烏地足球會長。由於國家隊在 2026 年世界盃表現不佳，他決定離職。

The Saudi team lost to Spain. They tied with Uruguay and Cape Verde. They finished last in their group. The team changed coaches very late before the tournament.

沙烏地隊輸給了西班牙。他們與烏拉圭和維 aperta 佛德（Cape Verde）打成平手。他們在分組賽中排名最後。該隊在賽事前不久才更換總教練。

Saudi Arabia spent 2 billion dollars on football. They bought famous players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar. They want to make their league better.

沙烏地在足球上投入了 20 億美元。他們簽下了如克里斯蒂亞諾·羅納度（Cristiano Ronaldo）和內馬爾（Neymar）等名將。他們希望提升聯賽水平。

Saudi Arabia will host the 2034 World Cup. The government wants to make money from things other than oil. Football is part of this plan.

沙烏地將舉辦 2034 年世界盃。政府希望開發石油以外的經濟來源。足球正是該計劃的一部分。

The football federation now needs a new leader.

足球協會現在需要一位新領袖。

Yasser Al-Misehal has stepped down as president of the Saudi Arabian Football Federation after the national team failed to move past the group stage of the 2026 World Cup.

由於國家隊在2026年世界盃未能闖過小組賽，Yasser Al-Misehal 已辭去沙烏地阿拉伯足球協會會長一職。

The Saudi Arabian national team finished last in Group H, earning only two points from draws against Uruguay and Cape Verde and a loss to Spain. This result continues a long-term trend, as the team has not reached the knockout rounds since 1994. Furthermore, the team suffered from instability before the tournament, as coach Herve Renard was replaced by Georgios Donis less than two months before the event started due to poor results in friendly matches.

沙烏地阿拉伯國家隊在H組排名墊底，對陣烏拉圭與佛得角平手，輸給西班牙，僅獲得兩分。這個結果延續了一項長期趨勢，因為該隊自1994年以來就未曾進入淘汰賽。此外，球隊在賽前便陷入不穩定的狀態，由於熱身賽成績不佳，教練 Herve Renard 在賽事開始前不到兩個月被 Georgios Donis 取代。

This failure happened despite the government spending about $2 billion over three years to improve the Saudi Pro League. This investment allowed the league to sign world-class stars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar Junior. Additionally, Al-Misehal played a key role during his seven years in power to secure the rights to host the 2034 World Cup. This plan is part of a larger strategy to diversify the economy and reduce the country's dependence on oil exports.

儘管政府在三年內投入約20億美元以提升沙烏地職業聯賽，但仍未能成功。這筆投資讓聯賽得以簽下如 Cristiano Ronaldo 與 Neymar Junior 等世界級球星。此外，Al-Misehal 在執政七年期間，為爭取2034年世界盃主辦權扮演了關鍵角色。此計劃是一個更大戰略的一部分，旨在實現經濟多元化並減少國家對石油出口的依賴。

The Saudi Arabian Football Federation is now starting a transition period following the president's decision to resign.

在會長決定辭職後，沙烏地阿拉伯足球協會現在開始進入過渡期。

Yasser Al-Misehal has vacated his position as president of the Saudi Arabian Football Federation following the national team's failure to advance beyond the group stage of the 2026 World Cup.

由於國家隊未能晉級 2026 年世界盃的小組賽，Yasser Al-Misehal 已卸任沙烏地阿拉伯足協主席一職。

The Saudi Arabian national team concluded its participation in Group H in the bottom position, having accrued two points from draws against Uruguay and Cape Verde, and a defeat to Spain. This outcome represents a continuation of a historical trend, as the squad has not progressed to the knockout phase since 1994. The team's performance was preceded by institutional instability, characterized by the replacement of coach Herve Renard with Georgios Donis less than two months prior to the tournament's commencement, following suboptimal results in preparatory matches.

沙烏地阿拉伯國家隊在 H 組排名墊底，在與烏拉圭和佛得角的平局中獲得兩分，並負於西班牙。這一結果延續了歷史趨勢，因為該隊自 1994 年以來就未能晉級淘汰賽。在賽前，球隊面臨體制不穩定的狀況，由於熱身賽結果不理想，在賽前不足兩個月內便將總教練 Herve Renard 更換為 Georgios Donis。

This sporting failure occurs despite significant capital injections into the domestic game. The Saudi government has allocated approximately $2 billion over a three-year period to enhance the Saudi Pro League, facilitating the acquisition of elite international athletes such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar Junior. Furthermore, the federation's leadership, specifically Al-Misehal during his seven-year tenure, was instrumental in securing the hosting rights for the 2034 World Cup. This bid is situated within a broader strategic framework intended to facilitate economic diversification and reduce national reliance on petroleum exports.

儘管國內足球注入了大量資金，但仍出現了這次體育上的失敗。沙烏地政府在三年期間撥款約 20 億美元以提升沙烏地職業聯賽，促成了如 Cristiano Ronaldo 和 Neymar Junior 等頂級國際運動員的加盟。此外，足協領導層，特別是 Al-Misehal 在其七年的任期內，對於爭取 2034 年世界盃主辦權起到了關鍵作用。此次申辦屬於一個更廣泛的戰略框架，旨在促進經濟多元化並減少國家對石油出口的依賴。

The Saudi Arabian Football Federation is now entering a transitional phase following the voluntary resignation of its leadership.

隨著領導層自願辭職，沙烏地阿拉伯足協目前正進入過渡階段。
