Doha: Qatar into controversy over hosting World Cup football The latest controversy is that at the 2006 World Cup, French legend Zinedine Zidane decided to restore the statue of Italy’s Marco Materassi being hit in the chest with his head.
The bronze statue, which was installed in the heart of Doha, was removed in 2013. The government’s move comes amid strong allegations that the statue promotes violence.
The bronze statue on the beach is five meters long. The statue will be housed in the International Sports Museum in Doha. Zidane is a close friend of Qatar and the Arab world. That is why Qatar has made it clear that it has decided to restore the statue of Sedan.
A spokesman for the International Museum of Sports said the statue would be on display from November 21, when the World Cup kicks off. The statue was made by the French sculptor Adel Abdesamad of Algerian descent. Conservatives protested against the statue.
