The Argentine national team is located in the suburbs of Doha.
Not in a five star hotel, but on a student campus.
Our team is the best in the world and deserves the best beef, says a person from the Argentine Football Association to the Daily Mail.
For many countries participating in the WC, it goes without saying that a five-star hotel provides the best conditions for winning the tournament.
Not for Argentina.
High on the priority list is the opportunity to cook beef in the traditional Argentine way. Asado is a special technique for cooking meat, on the grill or on an open fire, that will be used by the Argentine national team during the World Cup.
He lives at the university
When the opponents arrived at their luxury hotels they were screened Lionel Messi and colleagues on the campus of Doha University on Thursday.
“We’ve visited the campus many times and chose it not only because it has great facilities, but also because there’s room for Asado outside,” someone from the Argentine Football Association tells the Daily Mail.
There will be a chef to make sure players get their favorite food from the private barbecue area set up on the university grounds.
– We want to make them feel at home when they are in Qatar, and the best way to do that is to make sure they get a taste of home while focusing on football, says a person from Al-Ittihad.
“Focus on winning the World Cup”
The part of the university’s campus where Argentina lives has 90 rooms, modern sports facilities, an Olympic-sized swimming pool and a football stadium with a capacity of 10,000, the Daily Mail reports.
– Other teams have chosen more luxurious accommodations, but ours is the best in the world and deserves the best beef. Our focus is on winning the toilet, not on the quality of the hotel.
Argentina opened the World Cup with a match against Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.
