Billionaire Elon Musk was spotted at the World Cup final in Qatar with Trump White House senior adviser Jared Kushner.
Musk announced his presence in a tweet at the start of the highly anticipated match, which he then proceeded to live-tweet coverage of. The Tesla founder and new Twitter CEO was seated next to former President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Kushner. Musk did not say whether the two attended the match together. Several Arab spectators were seated around them.

Musk and Kushner’s relationship prior to the match is unknown. Musk famously had a social media spat with his father-in-law earlier this year.
Musk was also spotted interacting with people outside of his immediate vicinity. He reached down from his luxury box to greet other audience members in one video. In another, he was filmed shaking several people’s hands.
Musk seemed to have a good time at the final, giving enthusiastic reactions on Twitter to many of the game’s soon-to-be legendary plays.
“Duel in the Desert. Couldn’t ask for a better game. Incredible play by [Argentina] and [France]!!!!” he tweeted after the game’s conclusion.
