The USA have withdrawn from the Under-17 World Cup in Qatar because of the risk of armed conflict.
In a letter sent to players and seen by news agency Reuters, US Soccer said it made the decision "in light of current circumstances".
It cited advice from the US Department of State, which issued a level three travel advisory, external for Qatar last month.
