FIFA 2022 world cup

[kamvreto]

I want to ask everyone. if you were given a free ticket to watch the world cup live in qatar, would you book a plane ticket and go to qatar to watch the fifa 2022 world cup live in qatar?... or would you choose to take the ticket and sell it back to anyone interested in going there?

because to be honest. I would probably choose the second one. not because I don't want to go there. but because of my condition, I have to struggle to make a living here for my family. and the best way for me is to just watch it on television and streaming video.

I would prefer watching the world cup at home or at a bar. They apparently will ban the sale of alcohol in Qatar, and other rules that are not common in the west, so it wouldn't be the same as how I usually watch football.

regulations are not allowed to consume alcohol and some other regulations such as prohibited from having free sex, same-sex relationships, because this is very contrary to the laws and customs of Qatar, we as spectators who want to come to qatar must also respect it, because they are the current hosts.
All rules are applied for mutual convenience.

I think Sunday is a good choice, but I think it's very wrong to have decided to move this forward with so little time left for the event to start.
I'm sure a lot of people had already programmed themselves for the beginning of the games and now they will have a big problem to readjust...
I'm not just talking about the players, but everyone who will be involved in some way with this event.

Well, I also believe that starting on Sunday can be something viable. But there is also this other point where some people/fans/tourists can be harmed with this change in a short period.

I could be wrong, but I believe this anticipation with 1 day occurred to keep the tradition, in which the first game is "always" from the host country (correct me if i'm wrong), and that's why it changed the time of the game between Senegal and Netherlands

You are absolutely right, all tourist needs to understand local rules about their culture and try to respect them as I was reading there is alcohol allowed but not on roads or in stadium you can use this in your rooms and hotel bars as well about sex their rules are very strict and these can put into jail as well because they will not be going to give any soft policy about this as well so better if someone can't do these things he stays at home and follow his team on TV because going into place where rules are strict, and you can't control yourself is never been ideal.
 
Going to Qatar for watching world cup is never been easy for all just few peoples can afford this because they are one of most developed country in this region and cost of living is also very high which is not affordable for all like us.

This very strict regulation is because the competition is in a predominantly Muslim country, so like it or not, you have to follow the existing rules because alcohol and sex are not freely circulated like other countries, watching on TV or other streaming platforms is indeed the best choice to provide comfort. because when at home you can see it while having sex or drinking alcohol with some of your friends.

The cost of living in Qatar is indeed quite expensive, because it is a developed country. The facilities provided are also many and of high quality. Moreover, the 2022 world cup will be held in Qatar, of course there will be some price increases starting from hotels and several other places.
For those who have bought tickets for the world cup in qatar, of course they are middle to upper economic class. For those who are reluctant to obey the rules set by Qatar, of course, it is better to watch it on television. These rules are made in accordance with the norms and customs that exist in Qatar.

South Korea is a good team, but they will not be able to compete with Portugal on equal terms, yet the level of the teams is different. And Ronaldo is not in the best shape right now, he missed almost all of the pre-season, but he can still recover by the start of the World Cup. Portugal should get out of the group without problems, but it will be very difficult for them to reach the quarterfinals, they play from defense, such tactics become obsolete and less and less often bring good results.

the quality of the Portugal squad is better than the South Korean squad. however, it does not mean that Portugal will advance smoothly in the next round. Likewise with South Korea, maybe they are able to provide fierce resistance and destroy Ronaldo dream, as happened in the 2018 World Cup, Germany was defeated by South Korea 2-0.

Maybe South Korea and Uruguay will advance to the next round or vice versa, all possibilities could occur. even for ghana though, they still have a chance to qualify for the next phase even though it is statistically very unlikely.

This is one of the toughest groups in this World Cup with all four teams are capable to advance into next round because right now all are improving quality and as we all know in 2018 South Korea already done the biggest upset and send back Germany early things can repeat and Uruguay and Ghana both are also having few very good players so predicting about any team for advance into next round is never been easy with Portugal is having some advantage but still any result can happen.

In last few years we have very good results from Asian and African results as they are developing good structure and now improving their quality as well which is good for the game and with next world cup is going to have more teams could be another big advantage for all.

Let's not forget that South Korea was fourth in the world at the 2002 World Cup, and that Uruguay and Ghana played a very dramatic quarter-final match at the 2010 World Cup. Ghana unfortunately lost that match and missed the chance to reach the semi-finals.
Portugal was not convincing in the qualifications for the world championship and they were only second in their group, behind Serbia, and had to play additional qualifications.
In this group, all the national teams are good and it will be a very uncertain fight for the first two places in the group.

Under -17 FIFA Women's World Cup is scheduled to take place in India. This is a big news for us, because being a cricket dominant country to host the football event will increase the fanbase of football in the country. The host team isn't a participant, still it boosts the young generation to become football players.

[rahmad2nd]

FIFA have advanced the opening by a day. According to the new schedule the opening is on November 20 at Al Bayt Stadium. Host country Qatar will play against Ecuador on the opening match. This is mentioned to be a rare change that isn't done in the past. 20th November falls on Sunday which seems like a good choice, so that everyone around the world can enjoy watching.

FIFA reasoned, this schedule change follows the old custom, where every home team is always the opening match. 
The change of the opening match will bring together Qatar and Ecuador on 20 November, other matches according to a predetermined schedule. 

If you refer to November 20 to coincide with Sunday, it seems that this change has been conditioned by FIFA and the host party so that the opening ceremony of the World Cup in Qatar can be witnessed by football lovers around the world.

Surely big news for local fans because we all know recently India is doing amazing things for development of sports, and they are now in top five with medals tally in Commonwealth Games and this U-17 FIFA Women's World Cup could be a new step for sports loving peoples around the India because now their life is also changing and peoples can afford to go into stadium and watch these international matches.

They already have big fan base, but this could be brought some more intention and peoples will feel proud even host country is not involved but still a good time for them and their sports authorities those are working hard for cashing out this big sports industry which can bring billions of USD in investment.

However, it is strange what happened. They literally spent years preparing everything to set up a game schedule. And then a game schedule is set up (which I initially thought it was strange that the organizing country had not been assigned the opening game in the first place) and then you will be told 3 months before the tournament starts that 2 other countries will play the opening game . What can we say? Bad organization goes a long way to say but it is sloppy. And why suddenly Qatar the opening match?

[CLS63]

Having the World Cup in Qatar has changed everything for the teams and players indeed. Because they were always accustomed to having this tournament in summers so it didn't conflict with the leagues as well. They were able to handle their schedule easier but this is much harder now. Because the World Cup schedule just divides the season into half. We are going to see who will be the most beneficial side after the tournament ends. Maybe some teams can turn this into their advantage.

"HRW detailed in a report that women in Qatar must get permission from their male guardians to get married, study abroad on government scholarships, access many government jobs, travel abroad up to a certain age, and receive some forms of reproductive health care."

Reading that alone is a joke. I bet that even though the Qataris say women can go to the stadium, there will be pitfalls here and there. Getting tickets, or being held back by their husbands or whatever. You say we have to respect Qatar law and regulations. I fully agree with you, but there is nothing more important than human dignity, not even Qatar's law... Human dignity is also about equality between all different sexes. Everyone is the same, everyone should have the same rights.

I am really curious how this is all going to play out in Qatar. I hope for the best, but I am certainly not overly optimistic. Reports about people being taken into custody and so on will probably only pop up weeks after the event is finished. They will avoid bad press at all cost for as long as the tournament is going on.

At the end of the day it's their country and they can choose to do whatever they think is the best.

People visiting other cultures should follow their laws and customs. Yeah, some people might not agree with what they do over there, but they're just a different country.

That's why I mentioned that I would prefer going to a pub to watch it honestly.

I always think about Brazil,  since have been watching the world cup team like Brazil have never missed it out,  not participating in it. Brazil is a wonderful team that is good of talents,  no world cup without mentioning Brazil.

Brazil has a big name in the world cup event, they are the country that has won the most trophies, but football has come a long way, where other countries also have the same opportunities, young talent also appears quite a lot from various countries, when it comes to the world cup not only Brazil which has the discussion, England, Spain, Germany, France and Argentina are also very worthy of discussion, because these countries also have quality players.

The 2022 world cup will be very interesting, because we know that at Euro 2022 the Netherlands will not participate because they do not qualify,
but in this world cup the Netherlands will compete in group A, of course this will be interesting, everyone may underestimate the Netherlands and not many favor the Netherlands,
but the fact is that the Netherlands became an extraordinary team during 2022, only 2 draws and 4 wins, and don't forget, the Netherlands won 4-1 against Belgium,
I believe the Netherlands can reach the semi-finals in the world cup later, and can even become the champion.

Let's say the Netherlands will enter the semifinals, but what needs to be considered is that there are many countries that have more quality players than the Netherlands, meaning that it takes the country's hard work to reach that stage.

Brazil, France, Spain, Argentina, Germany and England are quite strong and have quality players, that's the reason the chances for Holland are very small, but football can give birth to surprises, but quality players and coaches are needed, surprises are only a small part of the preparations made by countries playing in the World Cup

yeah like that. I also choose to watch via streaming or watch together in cafes or hangout places. because every world cup, we always watch together the world cup match. even if I get a free ticket but I still won't go. because i believe in qatar we definitely need more money to spend. then I will prefer to watch with my family via streaming. or with friends in a place that provides joint viewing of the world cup.

Yeah, at the end of the day there's going to be many extra expenses so you still need some money to go there. And then there would be lots of restrictions, so you won't be able to fully celebrate it in the same way you would in other countries.

At the end of the day the whole world will watch it locally at their city with their friends, and only a tiny minority will be in the stadium.

I will always consider Brazil as the most favorite team to play in the final.  Then to count other teams, France, England, Argentina, Germany should be counted respectively.  However, in the last few months of activity, Belgium has also got a good performance and rating in the FIFA ranking.  Let's see who won the golden cup this time.

In my opinion, Brazil and France are the main favorites in this World Cup.
Likewise, I'm almost certain that between Argentina, Spain, England, Germany, Holland, Belgium and maybe Portugal and Croatia, we'll see another World Cup finalist in Qatar.
A very uncertain and dramatic world championship awaits us and in the end the winner will be decided by small details and luck, as always.
It will be interesting to see how the national teams will prepare for the very difficult conditions of playing football in Qatar due to the difficult weather conditions.

my list of champions, brazil, portugal and germany (who knows which one will win later but these 3 teams are my favorites)
but this is only a temporary prediction from me, because it hasn't started yet it's still difficult to predict but everyone has a superior team right?

brazil is always plying well and i am big fan of brazil . I think Brazil will have a great game future time like last year. Brazil's players always share the ball between themselves so they are always able to keep the ball in their possession. And they can champion themselves
