Qatar World Cup night out sees England fan playing with lion cub at 'Sheikh palace'

Alex Sullivan, in the Middle East to support his country, was asked what his experience had been like in Qatar.

He answered: "We were just out having a good time, having a mooch, getting our bearings right.

"The set up is spot on, you know. We've been enjoying ourselves."

But then the interview took a turn when his friend said: "Last night we met one of the Sheik's sons and he took us back to the palace and showed us the lions and everything.
