No one doubts that the Qatar World Cup 2022 It has been a sporting and organizational success. The Championship also ended in one of the best finals in memory, if not the best.
The cost of the World Cup, as explained on other occasions, is a total of 200,000 million dollars. This is confirmed by American consultants such as Front Office Sports, or the organization itself, which recognizes that this money will be spent.
But beyond football, the Qatar World Cup and its incredible and obscene cost has not served to improve the image of a country where civil liberties and social rights are restricted. The persecution and punishment of homosexuals or the lack of freedom for women and the more than cruel punishments imposed on those who violate strict religious protocols make that country a veritable hell.
Unmindful of the protests and serious criticism that last year’s Spanish Super Cup sparked for playing in a country even more radical than Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the Royal Spanish Football Federation has retained that country as the stage and venue for super cup this year. Go back to Gulf it’s just a mistake.
The decision to keep the cup in that country can only be explained by a terrible management of the president of RFEF, Luis rubiales. Not forgetting the criticisms, the presidents of Real Madrid CF, Valencia, CF Real Betis Balompié and FC Barcelonacontributed to this madness of going to these official battles in Riyadh.
Money makes everything and nowhere is it more hypocritical than in the world of soccer, where a few dollars seems to buy everything. No one doubts that this is an amazing business, but some ethics would be good for many.
More than success Real Madrid he is new Valenciaand last night’s game in between Real Betis and the FC Barcelonathis competition lacks all logic and the exemplary nature that sport should be and the responsibility demanded by the representatives of the federative.
last year already International Amnesty complained about the holding of that competition and demanded that the RFEF who did not play the competition. Many also think that this competition is played out Spain will be a success in public, as well as on television, which does not happen in Riyadh.
A year after the first Spanish Supercup in Riyadh The criticisms are still valid, but the business of the universal sphere destroys everything. I have no doubt, either, that the three games will be played in the stadium King Fahad of Riyadh They will be a hit with the television audience. There we must also point out the incoherence of the general public. Hypocrisy, on the part of all, or almost all. And a wonderful phrase from Xavithe coach of boatas icing on the cake: “Certainly as a country Saudi Arabia It has things to improve, like us in Spain we have things to improve”. Speechless
