They won't enforce it too much for sure but that doesn't mean that there will not be fines or jail at all. There is safe zones to drink if we could call them that way. For those who have money, they will stay on a cruise ships to avoid the control and live as they used to be. I assume people there will find alternatives to do whatever they want without exposing themselves to the authorities.

One of the sponsors of the World Cup is Budweiser. They make an enormous amount of money by selling low cost yet high priced beer at the stadiums in every single World Cup.

I think they will somehow get to an agreement where they will sell beer at the stadiums. When the World Cup was in Brazil, FIFA literally had to talk to the politicians so that they change a law that banned the sale of alcohol in stadiums. My guess is that the same will happen here. They probably don't want to make this too public, but it will happen. There's just too much money involved.

Budweiser is a beer brand that is produced by Anheuser-Busch. I don't think that they are very concerned about the sales inside the stadiums. They spent a huge amount to become one of the official sponsors, and in return they want their brand name to be flashed everywhere in the media and the venues. Now this is a concern. I don't know whether the Qatari authorities would allow alcohol brands to be advertised inside the stadiums. If that is not allowed, then Anheuser-Busch should pull out of the sponsorship and sue FIFA for the damages.

They definitely want to be able to sell beer inside the stadiums... that's a huge amount of money.

Discussions already started:

Qatari officials are weighing whether to relax the country’s ban on alcohol at sporting events ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, sources say

It will be a matter of time I think, eventually they will allow it. The same happens everywhere that has some kind of ban for alcohol. FIFA ends up talking with the local politicians and the rules and laws get changed to allow it.

Argentina have improved their game a lot in the recent times indeed. Messi is still a big help for the team of course but they have many really skilled players in their squad right now. Their performance in the qualification round for the World Cup has also been mesmerizing. They made Brazil big difficulties in their game there. When it comes to a finale between Argentina and Brazil I must indicate that it would be great. But this would feel like a Copa America finale at the same time.    So I think it would be better to have one of these teams playing against a European team in the finale.

Argentina did appear extraordinary in the world cup qualifying event for the Latin America zone, not only that they also managed to lift the Copa America as well as become Lionel Messi's first trophy for Argentina, but the world cup was not only represented by CONMEBOL but consisted of several continents in the world. , and we have seen the previous edition of the world cup where many CONMEBOL representatives often struggled against teams from the European continent and I firmly believe that the European zone will again dominate the Qatar world cup this year

The world cup always gives birth to new surprises for the development of a player, this is a barometer for the success of a star player, if a star player is so successful in their respective clubs, but has not succeeded in bringing their country as a champion in the world cup, then the player is not considered to have the highest level of success. great success, just look at how many successful players in the club, but they have not been able to bring their country as champions, there are things at stake in this highest trophy, career, success and the glory of the country and in fact this is more difficult to achieve by some of the world's star players

[lizarder]

The World Cup is always discussed and the discussion is identical about Brazil, Germany, Italy, France, England, Spain and the Netherlands, even though there are still many other countries that have the same quality as them, although it has not been proven that they can win the Cup, strangely every World Cup is held , many people put their hope and gamble with the countries that I mentioned above, of course we understand that people do that, because history has recorded the country's records and achievements, but it is also undeniable, players from other countries have also developed so much for now

While I am one of Messi's biggest fans in South American team, I believe the current team will need luck to win the world cup. The last time a South American team won the FIFA World Cup was Brazil. As a result, Argentina's chances are stacked against them. It doesn't matter what, European countries always dominate. Yes, it would be incredible to see Messi or Ronaldo lift the FIFA World Cup trophy in 2022.

I doubt Portugal will reach the final, although I would like to see it. Portugal has the players to get there, it remains to be seen if they will be focused enough for that.
But it would be very nice to see an Argentina vs Portugal final, because they are two teams that have never played against each other.

I think based on the group where Argentina is it has all the chances to go really far in this tournament,why not reaching the final and winning it.If they happen to play against Brazil I don't know how that game would end,most probably with penalties but whenever these two teams have played against each other in the Conmebol qualifiers Argentina has won when playing at home and Brazil has won when playing at home,in a neutral field I don't know but hopefully Argentina will not face at all Brazil except maybe at the final.The players of Argentina are some of the best in the world in whatever league they play and I think it is finally time for them to win a big trophy.

Somehow, basically Argentina always has great players, but they always seem to find it difficult to go further in any tournament. This world cup may be the last chance for Messi to be able to take Argentina a step further, although not to win the title but at least Messi gave his all for the team before retiring. I personally am still not sure if Argentina gets to the final, because in a world cup tournament or a national team with star players it is not a guarantee that the national team will be able to win trophies.

If Argentina met Portugal in the final it would be incredible. How the two countries that have two star players meet at the biggest football party in the world. Moreover, this is likely to be the last World Cup for them (Messi and Ronaldo). If this really happens this will be the most favorite match during the Qatar World Cup in my opinion.

The world cup this year will be featuring some underdogs like Senegal,  Cameron etc many nations are coming prepared and ready to fight for the trophy. When it comes to the world cup, football predictions are usually bias because everyone is patriotic to their country and want to win the trophy. I can't wait for the world cup to kick off in September cause Qatar will be bringing a whole different thriller.

I can't wait to see the world cup competition, because those potential teams are well prepared to demonstrate their tactics to achieve victory from all the matches. Its very easy for me to make a huge amount of money from world cup prediction, which we are about to enter the seasons in the month of September. I believe, Senegal will definitely demonstrate well in their first leg because some of their talented players will be coming to be   part of the competition to help their team to perform well through out the tournament.

Without a doubt it would be a historic game, as they never faced each other for the national teams. And it would certainly be the main game at the World Cup. But they can even meet in semi-finals, so if both teams are doing well, the probability of playing against each other is great. We'll see how things go in December, as the club season is halfway through.

Either the final or nothing.

Here's the diagram, top row on one side and bottom row on another side of the second stage:

It will be a dream match. Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi. I don't have much concerns about Argentina. They are one of the best teams right now. But the big question is about Portugal, as they are basically a one man army led by Ronaldo. If Ronaldo is properly marked by the opponent team, then Portugal will lose the match for sure. Hardly anyone else in their team has the capability to win matches. I am a big fan of Ronaldo, but I am being realistic here. In this tournament, I don't think that Portugal's chances are very bright.

I disagree. Lionel Messi performance in the national team does not come close to his brilliance when he plays for Barcelona. I don't think he has won a trophy with his national team. Argentina is strong without Messi, having Messi in the game may be unfavorable for them. Portugal doesn't have the best squad but they have Christiano Ronaldo. He makes all the difference. I don't think Portugal will win the world cup, but I believe they can beat a Messi Argentina anytime.

I would be happy if Portugal made it to the final (and by the way I don't consider it a one man team) but I wouldn't want Portugal to play against Argentina at any point in the tournament. After every achievement by Ronaldo or Messi, the fanboy wars flare up with renewed vigor and I'm afraid to imagine what will happen if these two teams meet at the World Cup. I would like to avoid this.

It will be incredible to see Christiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi lifting the FIFA world cup before they retire but as we all know it takes more than just individual effort to win the world cup. Though Portugal and Argentina have good squads to compete at all levels of the competition and would be nice having both of them play in the finals but some teams tend to be favourites to lift the trophy every year.

Either the final or nothing.

But the fact that they are on the opposite side of the groups, they can face each other in the semi finals. And there are two possibilities for this to happen:

- Argentina pass in first place of the group, and Portugal pass in second place.
- Argentina pass in second place in the group, and Portugal pass in first place.

Note the strings:
