American journalist Grant Wahl passed away in Doha while covering the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
According to reports, Grant passed away after collapsing at a press conference following the Argentina vs. Netherlands game.
After making news for donning a rainbow shirt and being denied admittance to the stadium for the USA-Wales Match, which resulted in his detention, the journalist passed away shortly after.
Security officer refused to let me into the stadium for USA-Wales, he tweeted at the time.
You must alter that. “You must alter your shirt. It is not permitted.
As the Friday game between Argentina and the Netherlands came to a close, 48-year-old Wahl passed out in the press box, according to NPR.
Before removing him from the scene on a stretcher, paramedics performed CPR. According to the Wall Street Journal, Wahl reportedly had a heart attack.
He had previously expressed a desire to see the hospital because his body was disintegrating, but the symptoms had been dismissed as bronchitis.
The dead stated in a message for subscribers: “And they said I probably have bronchitis. Finally, my body gave up on me. You can get that way after three weeks of little sleep, intense stress, and hard labor. I noticed a new level of pressure and soreness in my upper chest.
