World Cup 2022 : FIFA charges Ecuador for fan chants during the opening match..Discipline has been taken as a result of the national team of Ecuador’s supporters’ chants during the World Cup’s opening game.Many people have labelled the chanting as discriminatory. The allegation, according to FIFA authorities, occurred during the match against the host nation Qatar on Sunday “as a result of chanting.”
FIFA noted the disciplinary code’s prohibition against discrimination.
The player in question, Ecuador’s Byron Castillo, who is Chilean, was allegedly never qualified to represent Ecuador, according to documentation Chile claimed to hold. Chile’s attractiveness eventually faded.FIFA’s handling of the complaints against the Ecuadorian soccer federation, which is held accountable for supporter conduct at games, is currently unknown.
On Sunday, November 20, 2022, Karim Boudiaf of the Qatar national soccer team, standing in the centre right, heads the ball during the FIFA World Cup match between the host nation and Ecuador at Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor, Qatar.
The chants of “We want beer” by Ecuador supporters following the team’s 2-0 victory at Al Bayt Stadium also attracted notice.Days before the event was about to begin, organisers prohibited the selling of alcoholic beverages at the eight stadiums hosting the competition.
FIFA said in a statement that “Following discussions between host country authorities and FIFA, a decision has been made to focus the sale of alcoholic beverages on the FIFA Fan Festival, other fan destinations and licensed venues, removing sales points of beer from … stadium perimeters.”
