Qatar has been crystal clear about how seriously they want the rules to be taken by the FIFA World Cup fans. One such rule is keeping in mind the dress code of the supporters that are visiting the Islamic country.

The organizers of the FIFA World Cup have been imminent on some policies. For example, no men or women should be wearing revealing clothes. Their knees and shoulders should always be hidden in public. This was a rule set for the visiting supporters from around the world by Qatar itself.

After attending Croatia’s first match of the tournament in a sultry flag-inspired outfit, Ivana Knoll came to the Khalifa International stadium wearing another revealing dress that was found offensive and disrespectful to many people. Various fans expressed their anger and asked the model to respect different cultures.

Canada looked sharp in the early minutes of the game as Alphonso Davies scored the tournament’s fastest opening goal after only 67 seconds. Although, the Canadian players could not find the right moment throughout the game and ended up losing 4-1 to the last World Cup finalists.

After a long battle in World Cup qualifiers, the Canada national team somehow managed to play in their first World Cup after 1986 but were knocked out just after their second game in the tournament. Canada had a promising start to the World Cup after they gave Belgium a tough time but weren’t able to produce the same attacking threat against Croatia.
