Good morning, America. It's March 22nd, 2016. Welcome to the VICE Sports World News Roundup. Be sure to stop every morning for more headlines from around the world.

The Belgian national team has canceled training in the wake of this morning's terrorist attacks in Brussels. The team is set to play Portugal in Brussels later this week. Players are tweeting their dismay at the violence.

Can't believe I'm reading these things again…

Neither can we, Jan.

Indian Wells CEO Raymond Moore has resigned in the wake of his stupid comments about how female tennis players should "get down on their knees" and thank male tennis stars for bringing attention to the sport.

ESPN is reporting that Joe Cole, one of my alltime favorite players and the man who once scored this goal (see below), will sign with the Tampa Bay Rowdies of the NASL. Knee injuries are a bitch.

Volkswagen has renewed its sponsorship of the German Cup. It was widely speculated that the company would cut back on its sports sponsorship in the wake of its emissions scandal, which will cost the company billions.

The week will also mark the first time France has played in the Stade de France since the November terror attacks in Paris.

Just a friendly reminder that Pep Guardiola has no "break clause" in his contract and will take over Manchester City even if (fingers crossed) the team fails to qualify for the Champions League.

You're going to have to jump a little higher than that, Ricky.
