Soccer fans are amazed.
Although TV broadcasts from Qatar often show empty seats in the stadiums, the official attendance statistics tell a different story.
The latest twist was recorded in the match between the teams of Senegal and the Netherlands.
According to the statistics, 41,721 spectators managed to enter the "Al Thumama" arena, which can accommodate up to 40,000 viewers.
On the other hand, photographers captured empty seats just before the start and during the match.
