Yes Luis Enrique It won’t take Real’s players to Qatar, it’s Real who have to go to the small country that’s hosting the World Cup. Faris al-Hathloul, known as ‘enhancing’ from Saudi Arabia, was commissioned to do this. With a txapela on his head, an ikurriña, the Euskal Selekzioa shirt and a flag of ‘his’ Real Sociedad, the Riyadh fan, accompanied by a friend, appeared at the Iconic Stadium in Lusail to see the World Cup match in situ in between Portugal and Uruguay, which resulted in victory for the Portuguese team thanks to the double Bruno Fernandes.
Away from the intimidation of Portuguese fans and Charrúa, Faris Basque and txuri urdin badges are proudly displayed. His message on Twitter confirmed this: “In the most important event in football I have to carry the flag of my second country, the country of the people who always support me. Thank you very much for all the things you have given me and Aupa Reala 💙”.
