Suspiliny journalist Yevgeny Karanov spoke about the fans at the 2022 World Cup.

There are a lot of fans who have been invited or paid to simply create extras. Cool atmosphere at the matches of Saudi Arabia - the country is nearby, and a lot of fans came from there. The same can be said about Morocco,” Karanov said.
