The Mexican government has issued various requirements for its people to participate in World Cup events in Qatar in November.
With their broad Sharo caps, the chant “Celito Lindo,” which is a well-known traditional Mexican song that means (the beautiful sky), and their colourful “Lucha Lieber” masks—a distinguishing characteristic of the players Free wrestling in that large Latin nation—the Mexican fans stand out during the World Cup celebrations in each version.
However, the organizing committee of the World Cup in Qatar 2022 does not agree with this tradition, as it announced last Monday that it will not allow the fans to wear masks inside the stadiums, according to the Spanish newspaper “Marca”.
According to Alfonso Zagby, Executive Director of General Strategy and Diplomacy at the Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the World Cup organising committee made the announcement about the mask ban.
“We had previously asked about the idea of wearing these masks and at the beginning, and the answer came that there is no problem with it,” he stated in an interview with ESPN.
Don’t forget that the Middle East is a complicated region with many restrictions, he continued.

The Mexican official issued a warning that the security guards would fight any supporters who attempted to smuggle individuals who were wearing them into Mexico’s group stage matches against Saudi Arabia, Poland, and Argentina.
Despite the fact that this decision was made late, he emphasised that it is still important to inform the fans of these issues, emphasising that there are still some limitations, such as those that forbid the importation of alcoholic beverages into Qatar.
The newspaper noted that Qatar issued a list of restrictions imposed on the fans who wish to visit the country, including avoiding forming relationships with people outside of one’s own country or drinking in public.
