Budweiser tents are pictured outside the stadium ahead of the FIFA World Cup Qatar.

For years, Qatar’s tournament organisers have said that alcohol would be widely accessible to fans at the tournament. “Some of the planned stadium activations cannot move forward due to circumstances beyond our control,” AB InBev said in a statement.

“The thinking was that, for many fans, the presence of alcohol would not create an enjoyable experience.”

It is a football world Cup not a beer fest cup. Just respect other people's laws. If you want to do your nonsense go do it in countries. Try bring a pig in a ZCC church & see.

Bravo! SABreweries will only feed their children ( only Azanias). It will be Christmas as usual this festive season. No starvation!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Taking world cup to Qatar was a big mistake

They have their country laws. People know that. Why make a fuss about something that's not going to be changed just for the sake of a tournament.
