The 2022 FIFA World Cup organizing committee chairman, Nasser Al Khater, says drunk fans will be taken to “a place” where they can sober up safely.
Nasser Al Khater said that alcohol which is typically restricted to hotel bars, will be sold outside stadiums and in fan zones during the tournament.
Speaking to Sky News, Al Khater said: “There are plans in place for people to sober up if they’ve been drinking excessively.
“It’s a place to make sure that they keep themselves safe, they’re not harmful to anybody else.”
He added: “All we ask is for people to be respectful of the culture.
“At the end of the day, as long as you don’t do anything that harms other people, if you’re not destroying public property, as long as you’re behaving in a way that’s not harmful, then everybody’s welcome and you have nothing to worry about.”
