Beckham mania to hit Doha
By Mattias Krug
The midweek arrival in Doha of AC Milan, arguably the team in world football that has in its ranks the most stars past, present and future on virtually every position, has caused a flutter amongst Qatar’s sports fans.
It may well be the last time that David Beckham dons the colors of a top European side, and tickets have been selling accordingly.
With the English star midfielder all set to return to Major League Soccer after a high publicity loan stint in Italy, the Beckham effect has hit Doha. Club sources said they expected tickets for veteran Al Sadd captain Jaffal Rashid al-Kuwari’s farewell game against AC Milan to sell out today (Sunday).
That is despite high ticket prices which have caused some to grumble in times of economic turmoil. The price of seeing David Beckham and his team-mates playing football in Doha comes at a price of up to 10,000 QR, if you book a four person VIP lounge that includes a buffet and parking. The minimum amount spectators will have to pay will be 250 QR, but it seems that there have been enough people willing to do so. An Al Sadd source also added that English nationals and local companies have been snapping up tickets in great numbers.
And former FC Barcelona star Ronald de Boer said he saw no cause to complain, telling Gulf Times: “I think the stadium is going to be full. It’s not cheap, the equivalent of 45 Euros in Europe, but a lot of people want to have a look and see these top players in action.”
De Boer also added that it was a privilege to see stars including Beckham, former World Player of the Year Ronaldinho, compatriot Kaka, and coming star Pato in action at the Al Sadd Club on Wednesday.
“I think it is a great game for Qatar. We can see these top players in action. This opportunity to see players of this quality doesn’t come very often. We should be proud that they are willing to come here and enjoy the match,” de Boer said.
AC Milan will play a match in the Italian league on Sunday and are said to be arriving in Doha on a special Qatar Airways flight from Milan on Tuesday.
A training session later that day is open to all ticket holders, giving Doha fans a pricey double opportunity to see David Beckham in action in the red and black of Milan for a last time.
