A British football fan was initially denied entry to a World Cup match in Qatar because he was wearing a T-shirt depicting a naked man.
Simon Sewell was attempting to get into the Education City Stadium for South Korea's match against Ghana on Monday when he was prevented from entering. The 33-year-old British expat, who lives in Dubai, says he was asked to remove his T-shirt, which had a picture of Michelangelo's David on it, otherwise he wouldn't be allowed in.
"They were all looking at my T-shirt," Sewell told inews. "They said, 'This isn't OK'’ They said we had to wait. I pointed out it's a statue!
