Sputnik is live as local and international fans gather at the Doha fan zone for Qatar's second match at the World Cup. On Friday, Qatar is going head to head with Senegal.
The host country lost its first game against Ecuador (0-2).
As expected, the World Cup in Qatar is the most expensive in the history of football competitions. The Qatari authorities have previously reported that hosting the World Cup will cost the country about $200 billion, taking into account the construction of stadiums, subways, new roads, hotels, and large-scale reconstruction of the entire infrastructure in the country.
