FIFA officials are firmly convinced that beer must be sold in all stadiums during the final stage of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
According to current laws, the sale of alcoholic beverages in stadiums is prohibited. The country's health minister continues to request compliance with these regulations, but FIFA Secretary General Jerome Valcke urges the Brazilian congress to make changes in a new law.
"Alcoholic beverages are part of the World Cup, so they will be. Forgive me if I seem arrogant, but we are not going to negotiate on this matter," said Valcke during his visit to Brazil. - The fact is that beer sales must be legalized."
It is said that this position is influenced by the fact that one of FIFA's largest sponsors is the US beer company "Budweiser."
