To prevent any outbreak of covid-19, FIFA will have Tigers and other teams participating in the Club World Cup in a ‘bubble’ in Qatar; in addition, as a precautionary measure, cats will also make their own ‘bubble’ before taking the plane en route to the international tournament.
It was the president of the university, Alejandro Rodríguez, who revealed in a virtual press conference, the measures that will be used, so that there is no contagion before, during or on his return from this competition.
“FIFA is asking us for tests of the 55 people who can travel from Tigres as a maximum, it is a test today and three days before leaving, 10:25 we leave on the 29th, it’s 2pm and we arrived on Saturday at 09: 25. On arrival they take us a test, they take us to the hotel in individual rooms, we can not leave until we have test results, having results we will be free to leave the room, we will have an assigned floor, “explained Inge.
“There will be no guests in this hotel, there will only be two teams with exclusive floor, here will be the meals, the activity, the rest, the distraction, from here from the hotel to the training will be ground transport controlled by FIFA , no one can go on their own, so all the time. so all the time it will be the concentration hotel bubble, “he added.
While before leaving, the ‘bubble’ for Tigres will begin prior to the match of Day 4 against Necaxa, a team that is measured at the UANL in the Volcano on 28 January.
“We have been fortunate that our players understand the responsibilities they have with them, with the team and their families, no one wants to entrust anyone. Next week, when we concentrate before the game against Necaxa, we will make a try a day before the rally, the 26th, and from there concentrate on having that little bubble before we get on the plane. “
No fear of forced quarantine
On his return from Qatar, Inge is convinced that there will be no problem, as only those who test negative will be allowed to travel to Monterrey.
“We hope to arrive and sleep in our homes, if there is any contagion FIFA will not let you board the plane in Doha. If there is any contagion in the concentration hotel in Doha, it is immediately isolated from the group, “No one can accompany him. We are going to organize people who can follow up on any contagion in Doha, and that when we get on the plane we are all negative,” he said.
