Cristiano Ronaldo is a famous football star. He goes to a big dinner at the White House. US President Trump welcomes Prince Mohammed bin Salman from Saudi Arabia.

This meeting is important because the Prince does not visit the US for a long time. Ronaldo plays for a team in Saudi Arabia. Prince Mohammed’s group has money in this team. Trump says that his son, Barron, is a big fan of Ronaldo. Ronaldo helps Saudi Arabia get the 2034 World Cup. The Prince comes to the US because Saudi Arabia wants to change its economy. Trump says that Saudi Arabia will bring a lot of money to the US.

Ronaldo may not play in the first match of the 2026 World Cup. He gets a red card in the last match.

Difficult words: star (someone who is very good at something), economy (the country’s money and business).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

Why may Ronaldo not play in the first match of the 2026 World Cup?
