Millions of views of the video “World Cup Banquet”.. What is the truth?

Social media users have circulated a photo of a woman taking off her shirt in the stands, claiming to be an Ecuadorian football fan celebrating during a match for her country’s national team at the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

The post includes three snaps of a female fan in the stands of what appears to be a football pitch as she is about to take off her shirt. The accompanying comment read, “The shot of the Ecuadorian cheerleader everyone is looking for in the Qatar 2022 World Cup.”

However, the picture actually belongs to a female fan during a match in Mexico a month before the start of the World Cup, and has nothing to do with the actual World Cup in Qatar.

The image has received dozens of posts from various Facebook pages since it began to spread on November 25, 2022, after the Dutch and Ecuadorian national teams drew 1-1 at the Khalifa Stadium in the second round of Group A of the World Cup.

A search for the image indicated it was posted on several Mexican sites in October 2022.

It was taken from a video that showed a Mexican fan taking off her shirt to celebrate Tigres’ winning goal against Pachuca in the Mexican Football League.

The elements shown in the video correspond to the University Stadium, where the match was played on October 14th.
