God this is awful
It’s like a 1st round in the FA Cup between a lge 2 team and a non league team - Qatar will be dumped out of the cup without even scoring

Those Qatar fans in red behind the goal. They looked like staged fans to me. Similar age, sex, etc. The other Qatari fans looked to have left the stadium

Just look at the games they've played lately. Mostly friendlies against the likes of Bangladesh I think.

You mean the ones where 90% of them had Burgundy t-shirts saying "QATAR" instead of replica football shirts? Very suspect, that.

I was bored so stopped watching.
Seems like a few in the crowd felt the same.

Manager or the players ?
Rent a crowd - many have come from Saudi Arabia to help fill the stands

I’m guessing the stance isn’t that strong when a threat of a yellow card makes you think about backing down

I know the game was pretty much a non contest, but I think what made it dull was the atmosphere. I could hear a crowd, although it seemed hollow, passionless. As if the microphones had been turned up beside a group of 50 people asked to make a bit of noise.
I suppose Qatar probably doesn't contain a load of passionate football fans, and maybe Ecuador didn't bring a huge following with them. Hopefully the atmospheres will become much better when some of the big footballing nations play, who might have brought a lot of support with them. Won't hold my breath though.

Strange but they seem to be very similar to the Argentinian fans shown recently ?

You know that for sure do you?
I’m all for a bit of doubting Thomas now and again but this thread hasn’t started on the most positive of notes ?

There was an interview with a Welsh guy who lives in Qatar on BBC breakfast (IIRC), said how he had gone to the team hotel to welcome them, but it was fenced off and he couldn’t get very close but within the fenced off area was a “rent a crowd” applauding them in.
