It is officially World Cup Month

Absolutely no female supporters in the Qatar crowd.... not how a world cup should be. Surprised they let Alex Scott in .....

The Qatari rent-a-fans have earned their wages though. Non stop swaying and bouncing apparently. Shame they haven’t been briefed on which way to face, but you can’t win them all.
 
Where are all the women supporters?

Not seen one yet, normally the camera zooms in on the pretty ones, but thinking about it they would all probably have Hijab's on.

Due to segregation they are probably all huddled up in the top tier.
 
Feels very strange seeing the crowd with the majority of them wearing white. So used to seeing lots of colours in the stadium but either 2 main colours for the teams. Feels like there is 3 teams playing. One in yellow, one in red and one in white
 
I thought the rule was when the ball is played …not when it reaches you
I think there are 2 ecuador players there - one heads it (although it's not clear he actually does) and then the one whose leg is level plays the ball - so the above freeze is the header on
 
So Qatar have won something, they are the first World Cup host team EVER to loose their opening game,

Do the Qatar supporters realise the game is 90 minutes? Most of them looked like they left after 45 mins and did not return to their seats.
 
That 2nd half was dull wasn’t it? I wasn’t sure I’d watch, but I did. I’m not making a special effort to watch England though as it’s bang in the middle of my work day. USA vs Wales I’ll watch.
