Trending News: We are less than a week away from the start of the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar. But before the 32 teams start their campaign, they will play a couple of warm-up matches just to get used to the conditions. The football showpiece event, the first to be held in the Middle East, will kick off on November 20, in which 32 teams will compete. The final will be held on December 18 at Lusail Stadium.
India’s leading dairy supplier Amul has tied up with the Portugal’s national football team as a regional partner for the FIFA World Cup 2022. This comes after the brand tying up with the Argentina national team as a regional partner for the tournament. With these tie-ups, Amul now has rights to the two best footballers of this generation – Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
After becoming the first Indian regional sponsor for Portugal in the FIFA World Cup 2022, Amul tweeted a doodle ad featuring its mascot having buttered bread with Ronaldo. “Portu-goal. Amul Ronal-ko-do,” the text over the doodle said. Cristiano Ronaldo has played in four World Cups and is about to make it to a record-tying fifth this month in Qatar.
