10 problems with World cup soccer in Qatar 2022
The heat
The temperature in June and July in Qatar is 40 degrees celsius, Sepp Blatter denied that the heat could be a safety risk, but Fifa is now openly with an idea to a winter world cup
Calendar problems
If the fifa world cup soccer 2022 is to be played in winter, All the major European leagues has to make a 2 months break and the relation between Fifa and the big European soccer clubs will become even worse.
A city that does not exist
Lusail city is going to be the host city of fifa world cup soccer 2022 and the opening match and final is planned to take place there.The problem is that the city does not exist yet. Lusali city has to host 250000 people, but yet it is nothing that a minor construction place and the architechts drawings. Qatar does not have the hotel capacity, soccer stadiums or and efficient transport system to host Fifa world cup soccer 2022 and the price it costs to build it is an enormous amount of money.
Fantasy stadiums
The original 12 stadiums have been downgraded to only 10, but could end up as few as 8 stadiums. Qatar won the right to host fifa world cup soccer 2022 against USA because of the visionary stadium plans, but now a lot of the "sci-fi" stadiums is not possible to build
Corruption allegations
2 weeks before the election of Qatar as fifa world cup soccer host in 2022, a company owned by Mohammed Bin Haman,Qatar transfered 1,2 million dollars to the Trinidad and Tobago citizen Jack Warner, former CONCACAF president and 750000 dollars to Jack Warners son. One of Jack Warners employees also recieved 400000 dollars.
Jack Warner resigned from his posts in FIFA and CONCACAF in 2011
Lack of human rights
Qatar follows the islamic sharia law, there is lack of freedom of speech and Qatar does not recognize Israel as a state, but has said that Israel is welcome as parcipant. The Kafala system demands that all foreign employees must deliver their passport to their sponsor, and if the sponsor choses to put you in bad standing, the only way you can get your passport back is if you deny all your rights.
Qatar has never played in a World cup tournament
Qatar is just a small nation, with absolutely no remarkable trophys and also the nations in Middle east never had any remarkable results in the entire tournaments history.
A mysterious reason why Qatar got fifa world cup soccer 2022
Sepp Blatter claimed that direct political pressure had played a large influence in the election at 2010, where Russia won 2018 and Qatar 2022
Dead construction workers
44 Nepalese construction workers died during the building of Lusali city between June and August 2013 as a result of poor working conditions and bad safety
The American market
An important market because of television rights and advertising. The summer months are the only period where soccer matchs are watched by a large american tv crowd. January month would be bad because of NFL matches, Fifa has already sold the rights to FOX for World cup 2018 and 2022, but FOX has demanded that the tournament should be held in the summer.
