There is a big event in the international community in 2018, that is, the Russian World Cup. For fans, staying up late to watch the ball is a common thing. How to stay up late during the world cup? Let's follow Xiaobian.
In 2018, the world cup will be held in 11 cities in Russia, including Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kaliningrad, Volgograd, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, Samara, Saransk, Rostov, Sochi and Yekaterinburg. The opening ceremony, a semi-final and a finals will be held at Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow.
Compared with 14 years of Brazil, 10 years of South Africa and 06 years of Germany, this is the closest venue to China since the world cup between South Korea and Japan. That means we don't have to stay up until three or four in the middle of the night to watch the ball.
