World Cup 2022: In A Late U-turn, FIFA, Organisers Ban Sale Of Beer, Alcohol In Stadiums Perimeter

By IANS News November 18, 2022 • 19:09 PM View: 383

FIFA and the organising committee for World Cup 2022, starting in Qatar on Sunday (November 20), have made a sudden U-turn and banned the sale of beer and alcohol in and around the seven match venues.

FIFA did not give any reason for the sudden change in rules as it had earlier negotiated for the sale of beer in and around the stadiums. FIFA has, however, managed to safeguard the interests of AB InBev, the company that owns major beer producer Budweiser, with which it has a long-term sponsorship deal.
