FILE - In this Sunday, June 26, 2016 file photo, Germany coach Joachim Loew gestures during the Euro 2016 round of 16 soccer match between Germany and Slovakia, at the Pierre Mauroy stadium in Villeneuve d'Ascq, near Lille, France. The Confederations Cup soccer tournament might have some fans around the world. If so, they should enjoy this one in Russia while they can. FIFA’s eight-nation World Cup rehearsal for the host country, six continental champions and World Cup title-holder is no sure thing to survive for another edition. "If there was no Confed Cup in 2021, I wouldn't be unhappy,” Germany coach Joachim Loew said last month, naming a squad for Russia with only three of his 2014 World Cup players. “I don't think those involved would be unhappy either."
