Dissappointment at AFCup Fina
I am shamed to report that with valid tickets purchased several weeks ago and going to the stadium well before the kickoff, we were denied entrance to the stadium stating that the stadium was full. We could clearly see that the seats were empty even from outside (see picture below). The dissappointment in the children accompanying us were tremendous. I am also sorry that most of the leading dailies failed to report the plight of thousands of fans. I do not see any statement from Qatar Football Association or any authourity about the compensation to this wrong. I am very dissappointed and now have serious doubts about Qatar's capability for hosting the World Cup! Shame on the organizers of AFC-Qatar!

I also went with a bunch of mates to watch the game, I had 3 mates come all the way from Australia the day before just to see the game and this is what happened. Qatar if you do this then nobody will come for the work cup, it's a joke and theft taking peoples money giving then dedicated seats then reselling them. I spoke with a bunch of people that came from japan as well just to see the game and was denied entry who is going to reimburse their travel expenses???
The whole game was so unorganized the parking was no existent there were no officials to explain on where to go once you go there and no entry to full paying fans. I'm sending a petition to FIFA to change the decision of the world cup for 2022 as it will be an absolute flop. With the media coverage this is getting back in Australia and how badly organised it was I can be sure you won't have support from them. Sad qatar sad
I also went to the stadium with my family of 4 but denied entry. it was total nasty surprise for our family.
i dont understand how ticket holders denied entry. how stadium full without ticket holders. Organiser must come forward and answer all those questions.
i dont know how they will manage 2022 worldcup.
