His organization is dominated by discord on many fronts. FIFA World Cup in Qatarstarting tomorrow Dohaabout Qatar’s match against Ecuador.

In the British Daily Mail, Amjad Taha’s claim that eight Ecuadorian footballers were bribed to beat Qatar 1-0 in the first leg of the tournament, a claim that was not confirmed by any other source, and remained until yesterday (President of Ecuador , Guillermo Lasso nevertheless made sure to announce in time last week that he would not attend the match after all, citing internal obligations…), a ban on drinking alcohol in stadiums before, during and shortly after the matches was also added.

The excitement comes from the fact that the main sponsor of FIFA ($75 million) of this event is the American beer Budweiser, and everyone thought that alcohol would be allowed in exceptional cases. However, as the Organizing Committee announced yesterday, alcohol will be banned on the perimeter and inside of each stadium where a match takes place, from three hours before the start to one hour after the end of each match. This is a 180-degree turn on the part of the organizers, who initially indicated that they would tolerate alcohol in the stadiums.

We were also alarmed by the new claims by Cristiano Ronaldo, who said on English television (Talk TV) that if Portugal lifted a trophy in Qatar, he would immediately stop playing football – and not only with the national team. At the same time, Manchester United said that they are now taking appropriate action to respond to his statements, which means his immediate dismissal from the club.

In addition to this clash, Monday’s schedule includes England’s first leg against Iran, as well as the US’s clash with Wales.
