FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar has seen plenty of controversies in only a week since the tournament kicked off, but the human rights record, and similar issues have seen the nation come under the scanner. There was also the decision to ban beer sales at the stadiums, while female fans have been urged to not wear decent clothes.
However, a Croatian fan has taken the internet by storm due to her outfits, and she may also have risked facing jail time in Qatar. The superfan called Ivana Knoll who is also dubbed the 'World Cup hottest fan' and Croatia's 'sexiest cheerleader' has quickly become a major talking point on social media.
Ivana came into the spotlight after she called the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar a 'disaster' since many of her entourage didn't receive their 'Hayya' cards, the identification document needed to attend World Cup games.
