Fans advised to keep shirts on and not be visibly ‘under influence of alcohol’ at World Cup

Football fans must not be “visibly under the influence of alcohol” or be shirtless at World Cup stadiums in Qatar, according to organisers. Fifa has prepared a “stadium code of conduct” applying to all 64 matches at the tournament in the Gulf state.

A section advises ticket holders about their behaviour at the stadium and runs through a list of things they must not do unless “expressly authorised by the event organisers, where appropriate”.

They include: “Remove items of clothing or otherwise remain in a state of undress (including being shirtless) or reveal intimate body parts. For the avoidance of doubt, body tattoos and body paint do not constitute clothing.”
