Nasser Al-Khelaïfi ignites for the 2022 World Cup

In a long interview with RMC, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi spoke about the 2022 World Cup. Widely criticized, in particular for its organization, the World Cup will deliver its verdict this Sunday on the occasion of the final between France and Argentina. Before seeing his two proteges Kylian Mbappé and Lionel Messi do battle, the Parisian president delivered his pride. “We talked before this World Cup, we wanted to organize the best World Cup in history. I’m Qatari too and I’m very proud when I see the stadiums, the matches, the quality of the game too, for the supporters, the media too. It’s something wonderful for us. And we too are sad because there are only two games left. But it was an experience”declared NAK before returning to the discussed image of this World Cup.

“Before the World Cup, all the media was criticizing Qatar, the bad World Cup… And after people came and now what I hear from all the media is very positive. We see that the Qataris are not bad people. We offered our heart, our country for everyone. It is our culture. A media said to me “Are you like this all the time or just for the World Cup? But no, before the World Cup, after, we stay the same. And that was very special to me. We are only 350,000 Qataris, we are not many but we are proud of our country and of what we have done. I think it was a perfect World Cup. There are still two games left and I hope everything will go well but it was a very high level World Cup. The message got through!
