An intervention from the brother of Qatar's Emir, Sheikh Tamim has prevented beer from being sold inside World Cup stadiums.

The Gulf state does not allow drinking alcohol in public, but that was due to be relaxed for the tournament.

Whilst not allowed inside stadiums, beer will be sold at specially-designated fan zones.

It’s believed Manchester United are suing Cristiano Ronaldo for breach of contract.

The 37-year old made a string of claims against the club during a two-part television interview this week.

In a brief statement earlier today, United said they were taking "appropriate steps" following the interview.

The Guardian report that Ronaldo has been instructed not to return to United’s Carrington base after the World Cup.
