King joins football fans to watch FIFA game

04 July 2006

His Majesty King Abdullah on Tuesday shakes hands with football fans who were watching the World Cup game between Germany and Italy on a large screen installed in Amman's Al Hussein Park. Before the tournament began, His Majesty donated 23 large screens to display the matches after a satellite channel acquired the exclusive broadcasting rights of the games. The screens were primarily installed in underprivileged areas all over the country.
