Didn’t watch Qatar either. Neither did majority of football fans. The problem is, that is not why fifa chooses these fucked up nations to host football. If it was about tickets, then it would always be in Europe. This is about power and money.
This is unfortunately not true. Qatar had record numbers for attendance and viewership - average attendance was 96.3% of stadium capacity, with 5 billion total viewers worldwide.
There was a tiny dip in numbers for 2018 compared with 2014, but they were still very high.
I don’t think there’s much chance of it being any different next year sadly.
Did you not see the attendances?? 80% of the stadiums in Qatar 90% of the time were fucking white-skirtet saudis… Non of which gave a shit about ball. You can’t rely on those numbers. I am not Saying there wasn’t a lot of tourists. I am pretty sure there was. But I also know they didn’t sell much for danish football fans atleast. Which would had been sold out, if the event was en Europe. Even south Afrika, were sold out by fans.
