The process of international sports events as a tool of diplomacy continues. As a tool of diplomacy, sports are used to achieve political goals outside of sports, starting with efforts to demonstrate stability, political progress to achieve economic benefits. According to Joseph S. Nye, the method of sports diplomacy or diplomacy through sports media is a type of soft power strategy of the state, including football.

Football in the name of anything can appear in the political arena. In some cases, football has become a good example of international relations, conflicts between countries and national aspirations. For example, the newly independent countries immediately want to get the right by applying the requirements to be a member of FIFA, which is more than the United Nations (United Nations).Â
According to the latest FIFA Congress report of 25 May 2012, South Sudan became the 209th member (FIFA.com). This shows that football has accepted all countries in the world, regardless of the power of the state, both in terms of economy, politics, social relations and culture, and every country wants to get support international and international sports competitions.
Sometimes, football is used as a tool for political campaigns, rallies and propaganda.

FIFA stands for Fédération International de Football Association or Fédération International de Football is an international governing body of football based in Zurich, Switzerland and established on May 21, 1904 in Paris, France. FIFA was founded by representatives of Belgium, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.Â
The idea of creating an international football federation started in Europe, because at that time England already had its first football association in 1863. At that time, the submission of the proposal for the creation of FIFA was delayed due to fear view of the idea of the association of England , Scotland, Wales and Ireland with the idea of creating a parent association for this international football. However, because they did not want to wait, the secretary of the French Football Association (USFSA) contacted the European Football Association in writing to consider the possibility of creating a broad umbrella.Â
When he received information that the English Football Association, led by its chairman at the time, Lord Kinnaird, did not want to participate in the creation of an international football team, the secretary of the French national team took the opportunity to send an invitation to those meetings. which agreed to create an international team in football. And finally began the process of creating FIFA.
FIFA calls on its members to uphold the FIFA principles. This means that this FIFA law does not directly affect the members because this law is only a guideline, but the result of compliance with the organizational rules will still receive FIFA's approval so as not to contradict the basic principles of the FIFA rules. It can be concluded that the FIFA regulations are a type of multilateral agreement and that in the process of becoming a PSSI regulation, the main national law applies.
