By IANS News December 12, 2022 • 11:32 AM View: 372

FIFA World Cup: From here on, it becomes important to see how to evaluate the FIFA World Cup event held in an Arab country for the first time. Amid all the allegations and criticisms, should this event be considered a success or has it become a fight for money and prestige?

Supporters of the teams are the lifeblood of the football world cup. With Qatar estimating that 1.5 million foreign visitors will travel for the event, which runs until December 18, 2.89 million tickets have been sold and the number of overseas supporters after the first round has crossed almost 1 million.
