Again with the fresh impact of the death of the famous American journalist Grant Wahlanother press officer who attended the Qatar 2022 World Cup died on Saturday afternoon. It concerns Khalid Al Misslama 43-year-old Qatari photographer who was part of the coverage of Al Kass TV channel, a member of Bein Sports.

Al Misslam has sent photographs to the Creativity Department and in one of the latest images to be shared he was seen very close to Cristiano Ronaldo, portraying him singing the Portuguese national anthem on the substitutes’ bench.

The reasons for Al Misslam’s death have not come to light, only that it happened on Saturday, hours after the duel disputed between England Y Francefor the quarterfinals.

“Al-Kass channels mourn the death of Khalid al-Misslam, a photographer in the Department of Creativity”, posted the chain on their social networks. In addition, he dedicated a brief mention to their employee’s death in one of their latest live broadcasts on one of the eight channels they have, but they also didn’t offer more details on how his death happened.

The shocking case of Grant Wahl

When news of Al Misslam came, the death of Grant Wahl. The well-known 49-year-old American journalist died during the end of extra time between the Argentine national team and the Netherlands, in the press box of the Lusail stadium. He would have suffered a cardiac arrest, but the brother denounced that it was a homicide.

As reported by the New York Post, Grant passed out in Lusail Stadium and was taken to a nearby hospital, but they have not confirmed whether he died in transit or if he died at the medical center.

American colleagues sitting next to him said Wahl slumped in his seat in the press box during overtime and immediately called for assistance.

His brother shared a video on his Instagram account and assured that it was a murder: “My name is Eric Wahl. I live in Seattle, Washington. I’m Grant Wahl’s brother. My brother was healthy. He told me he received death threats. I don’t think my brother just died, I think he was murdered. And I’m just asking for help”.

His latest tweets

Few details about Wahl’s death are known yet. Among the many doubts, however, one certainty stands out: at least he came to see the heartbreaking draw for those led by Louis Van Gaal in the last of the ten minutes added in the second half. You can certify this thanks to a series of appreciations he wrote on his Twitter account while the Argentines and the Dutch were battling for the hope of progressing to the semifinals.

Lionel Messi – who else? -was the footballer Grant believed deserved his first assessment. It happened after 34 minutes, when Leo came up with one of those millimeter assists we’re already used to and allowed Nahuel Molina, the lane that defined nine from the area, to sanction the 1-0.

“My God, what a ball Messi,” expressed Grant, precise and concise. And he has not forgotten his role as an informant: “Argentina leads.”

The second time he took his eyes off the game to upload a tweet with his mobile phone was after the penalty committed against Marcos Acuña, 25 minutes into the plug-in. Between the two posts he spent exactly one hour and one minute.

“I haven’t been a fan of Acuña at this World Cup, but that was an inspired dribble to get a penalty, when he could have given the ball to Messi,” he remarked.

His third tweet was not long in coming. “We are doing typical Dutch Luuk de Jong/Wout Weghorst crime film to wrap up this film,” she wrote as Weghorst turned his head to add suspense to the final minutes. By then, the Dutch were starting to take control of the game and turn any ball that went through their feet into a cross into the box.

For the first time he made a publication that had nothing to do with a goal. It was the vehement play of Leandro Paredes that closed the game. The PSG midfielder first rallied without a foul, then came on late and hit Nathan Aké violently and finally, after questioning referee Mateu Lahoz called for the foul, lobbed a ball from close range against substitutes Orange . There were pushes, insults and tags.

“Leandro Paredes is always the opposite of a calming influence. I have no idea how he is still on the pitch,” said the American reporter, who considered Paredes’ action red.

When the 2-2 draw came, Grant reacted like the vast majority of Argentines. Astonishment and incomprehension. “What just happened?” he tweeted. A phrase that thousands of fans have rumored, certainly with some whore involved. Three minutes later, when he found the right words, he answered his own question: “Just a perfectly designed free-kick goal for the Netherlands.”
