Corruption is the cancer of the World.
We should built some Corruption Free Artificial Intelligence or some tech like that
However again, the builder might add bias
But with proper Investigation and proper procedures, We could end corruption with tech
Corruption is a by product of greed and selfishness.
Sarkozi , the French conman president is now in jail for other corruptions ...but he got USD $ 9 million to sway the Quatar decision...the. entire world cup is blatant bullying....it's at the wrong time ...post poned til now ....now look at the changes made in the groups ...never before any country faced another country they faced in the 1st round ...it is rigged but its games...nothing more to most but its a lot of money to a lot of people and there lies the reason for corruption.
STAGE 4 at that
NOBODY BECOMES A MILLIONAIRE OR A......BILLIONAIRE BY WORKING FOR OTHERS AND DEPENDING ON THEM, GOOD INVESTMENT BRING MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, AND CONSISTENCY BRING BILLIONS, THE MARKET IS ALL ABOUT BTC AT THE MOMENT NOW..............

As an American who is honored to host the 2026 tournament with Canada and Mexico, I still think Australia would be the perfect host for the world cup. Just imagine the final at the MCG.
What a racist perspective, so only western countries are allowed to host FIFA?
MCG is a cricket stadium.
Just imagine the finals at the state of the art stadium with latest technology at Lusail!!!!! 😊Come to Qatar and see the new change!!
@@ash_2022 Non of your stadiums can come even close to the Tottenham stadium. And it's freaking Tottenham.
You wouldn’t be able to see the ball at the MCG. AUS would have been a sick World Cup though.
I think having qualified for the World Cup at least ONE time sounds like a reasonable criterium to be allowed to host.
You also need to consider whether countries are actually capable (financially especially) to host the event
If there's no human rights violation I would agree with you men! But no honey, there's a lot!
Qatar took it in the name of whole middle east and north africa where no WC had taken place before ...
@@frontlinersaudi8076 doesn’t stop the 5 billion viewers from catching all the games
The Corrupt and Caught World Cup. They must've paid millions in backroom deals to get the WC. I mean to allow disruption of the season of major European football leagues all to give the WC to a country with a population of 2.5 million all in the name of the "development of the game." That is BS! FIFA liked the smell and feel of money and Qatar had lots of it. Along with lots of human rights violations. Hope they dedicate some of those games to the migrant workers that died.
They paid many many millions. They had to bribe a lot of delegates to get this over the line. These oil nations believe they can buy everything and have no moral issue with corruption. The corrupt Blatter was never going to get in the way of Qatar. Qatar even buys its players from other countries. They've set up a football school and scout for young talented players in mostly impoverished countries to bring them into that school to qualify playing for Qatar. They simply have no shame and couldn't care how many non-nationals pay the ultimate price, as long as they get what they want. There isn't one good reason why Qatar should have been awarded these World Cup finals, but here we are.
I agreed except the small correction is 2.8 millions not 2.5
Human rights. Hey, give me one European country that cares about human rights.
@@user-zl3xf8ki1m They are taking in refugees by the millions. How many Arab countries have taken in any refugees?
@@gustaaf1892 not one gulf nation took any fellow Arab refugees. Hypocrites. But they would offer money to build mosques in western nation.
The best media stunt I've seen in decades was when that guy threw all that money at Sepp Blatter. So apt, and I still smile whenever I think of it.

Corruption is nothing new in FIFA ! It"s an open secret.
I have mixed feelings about the 2022 World Cup. I believe FIFA needs to give chance to others. It can’t be Brazil, Germany, Argentina all the time.. So I’m happy they gave Qatar a chance.
However, Qatar’s abuse towards migrant workers will forever tarnish this FIFA edition. These stadiums will go down in the history books as modern-day pyramids/Taj Mahals, except that no royalties are buried here but laborers. I’m sad that it needs to come down to this & FIFA can’t do anything about it. The corruption of FIFA has been questionable since the 2018 edition in Russia. It seems that they leveled up on that mistake for 2022.
If they wanted to give it to a new country, Australia was bidding.
They wanted money. Damn logistics, human rights, or anything else.
These are just false studies that have no prof just because some western news anchor says so dose not means so and these workers have been paid and treated more than they will ever be in their countries so give us a break
Argentina hosted the World Cup in the 70s, what are you talking about..
Other countries want to improve their infrastructure & make money or break even doing so while Qatar are splashing the cash.
@@4laughz yes because other countries dose not have other income resources get out of here you and your weak argument because of the world cup Qatar developed it’s infrastructure and we also need to make money just like others Qatar is not as rich as the US but no one is talking lol
British people suddenly care about immigrants while a couple of months ago they were ready to ship their immigrents to Rwanda
To the guy that said Qatar was the best bid for the 2022 World Cup , what he really meant was Qatar had the biggest brown envelopes , and Blatter took them all

You can’t say that… you didn’t see their Bid nor anyone else’s bid for that matter.
Ha! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Besides, while the 'sour grapes' whining U S of A's conflict-of-interest laden( funny how nobody on the mainstream brought such a glaringly-obvious thing up - almost as if "jUsTiCe" is not what they're actually after!) indictment/prosecution of "small fishes" had no direct-relation to Qatar, nor they did beyond rumourmongering of copaganda-glorified Sherlock®-ian deduction of "we believe", but the US-dominated international press wasn't content with simply _that._
They exploited that ambiguity in the “we believe..” part and found an even-newer hatchet-job on the Qatarīs, "@@Faranzo14".
On the other hand..
As the tabloid papers( yes, them! Since there's no distinction between newsgathering for them and rest of newsgathering doctrine when it comes to practice across Africa & West Asia*, the most) originally reported that higher-ups linked to Qatar's bid were charged by the Swiss authorities - this was also immediately pounced-upon by the rest of mainstream media, let alone sports-journalism where standards are only notch above showbiz-journalism. But all of them finally got acquitted by the relevant Swiss court-of-law, there was not even a single-letter reporting on it by the press. Bet unless you read tabloids and then research, you must've never heard of it[ till this reply], eh?
*Excluding a certain self-declared State with somehow uniquely inalienable "Right to Exist," 'course.
Same as Russia handed out brown envelopes to Blatter, Don’t hear anyone moaning about that. You people just don’t want us Arabs to host a World Cup
Corruption through money is the only reason Qatar is hosting the world cup. No other reasons. The way this affects and continue to affect all leagues across the world is just terrible but then again money speaks and FIFA listen 🤣😂
As if corruption never was an issue before this
What about previous editions? Do you think it was a just and fair process for everyone to Vote Morocco but announce South Africa and later find out that South Africa bribed FIFA?
@@abderezaq309 Mehh...atleast no one died during other world cups
Bribes speak and the West listens
@David Razor Yes, this is a fact. But the West, the alleged "civilization" of this era, completes the lifecycle of that corruption.
Thank you for making this video. I was not aware of the number of voters who voted for qatar to host were found to have been bribed.

Honestly speaking the players getting injured before the world Cup due to the compactness of match schedules just to meet up with the world Cup, some players not engaging in duels to avoid injuries, some players not wanting to play has all made this world cup very odd
Who are those players who do not want to play ?
so, if a player is committed to his
foreign club and crowd more than his own country and own people makes the (WORLD CUP) is the one to blame here ?
that's what is odd.sir
that's life, full of twists and turns
In Qatar, government projects are awarded to big contractors - mostly managed by foreigners. They hire workers from overseas through agencies in south East Asian countries. The agency takes fees from the companies/contractors. As a result contractors expect the workers to not work elsewhere once the workers arrive in Qatar.
The government cannot control every single recruitment happening in the private sector - which is run by foreigners themselves.
For decades, workers have been coming to Qatar from south east Asia willingly (nobody forces them on planes). The workers know that conditions in their countries (and in Europe) are worse than in Qatar.
the fact that FIFA had to change the schedule of the world cup just because of qatari weather shouldve been the 1st sign not to host it there. it counteracts with continental leagues
With European leagues, yes.
That's why it's called 'World' cup.
So 'World Cup' must be scheduled around European leagues? These are the double standards which make me not take Western country complaining about Qatar seriously
❤Qatar❤
Because WorldCup is for Europeans?, you are the world?. Play your Euro' when you want, the World Cup is not all about you. Corruption or no corruption I think it's good to give other countries, cultures a chance to host the tournament because football is for everyone & respect their cultures & laws while at it just as we respect & tolerate yours when we come to your home.
In a world full of blatantly corrupt organisations ,FIFA are right up there . Every country is so-called appalled about the WC being held here and had the opportunity to withdraw, yet apart from token arm band wearing gestures did nothing . Everything and everyone sadly has a price and when it is so rife it’s frightening how blasé we all become about it .
I agree FIFA is a rich organization based in a supposedly Forward thinking county and we are sure they knew about all that problems of human rights but they just saw the money, why this corrupt organization that help wash images of dictators havent being investigated or judged by the international media?
I cant say that all about Qatar is bad or true but something that will be certain is that the current russia Ukraine war came in a perfect time for them, it has stop states from tackling the issue and shut up because they are in need of the gas and oil of this nation as its one of the only alternatives after Russia. The war will pay fully for this world cup and the money will come from the countries that are supposed to be against violation of human rights as they cant risk to lose a supplier.
Sad but an event that supposed to represent union and peace is getting stained by dodgy interests from various counties not only from Qatar.
❤Qatar❤
Such a great mini-documentary. Touched every point.
It was missing a few points like the facilities being built on stolen land from the al Ghufran tribe and also the weak laws on sexual assault.
It is white colonist propaganda. They do not give a sh** about human rights.
the comment section here is intriguing. But whatever you feel about corruption, values, deaths etc...the fact remains several of the worlds top leagues had to make huge changes just to accomodate it, meaning it shouldn't have been considered in the first place. They had to build 7 of the 8 stadiums exclusively for it. It has no football history, it has less than half the populatio of greater London, and no matter what they are trying to do the have a recent history of mysgony and intolerance. No major sporting event should touch this nation
Exactly Politics/religion aside
Qatar is simply not a suitable location for a *summer* World Cup it’s simply too hot not enough of a football culture there and doesn’t make sense sustainability wise
It doesn’t make sense to hold the WC there at all
❤Qatar❤
👍👍
Hope all the souls that died in the foreign land gets to rest in peace after this. They died just they could feed their family home. Qatar could have done better in that it's truly sad all our favourite stars will play on the cemetery of our brothers.
“Carbon neutral” and yet there’s gonna be more than 60 daily Fly Dubai flights for all the fans staying in Dubai because there’s no space in Qatar to host all the people flocking in
Damn, thanks a lot for this video. Very thoroughly made and detailed. All I needed to know to catch up with the controversy.
It is interesting to read about all these comments about abuse of workers in Qatar as if the West is holy in treating workers. Australia treated and continues to treat the Aboriginals inhumanely. As an American, I know White Americans continues to take away and/destroy the little land the Native Americans have with their corporations, and a lot of Americans are surviving paycheck to paycheck. Countries in Europe are better off because of colonialism/imperialism. I am not condoning what Qatar is doing. I am saying Social Justice needs to be pursued everywhere. Please pick up a sociology and an anthropology book and educate yourself, and then we can all have meaningful and honest conversation about improving as humans.
Yes, all people should not be treated inhumanely.
I agree
As someone who has lived in Kuwait as well as Qatar, both countries being quite similar, it does feel like people are hating on Qatar for the simple fact that it is a Middle Eastern country with 'regressive' ideals.
I understand the issue of poor treatment of migrant workers and that undoubtedly should be looked into, as well as whatever alleged corruption has being going on behind FIFA's closed doors.
But to those who pretend that Qatar is a terrible choice simply because it forced the committee to conduct a winter world cup, let me tell you, summers in these countries are intolerable and consistently record the highest temperatures on earth every year. It will be a human rights violation to even let people play in that heat. Besides, it's the world cup, and the western world should realise that other countries should be accommodated into that title as well.
Secondly, I disagree with these claims of Qatar's poor treatment of women. Qatar is not Saudi Arabia. Women have a lot of freedom and privilege that for some reason the west chooses to ignore simply because these women also wear abayas and headscarfs. It's a community with strong familial and spiritual values. People of the East look at the West and wonder how entire countries can condone young children undergoing sex change surgeries and parents undergoing abortion simply because they are not ready to have children. These don't sound like progressive values to us. So instead of making this bigger than what it actually is, I think everyone should think twice to what their own cultures and own countries truly partake in before pointing fingers at others. You can have the next world cup. Cheers.
The award of the World Cup 2022 to Qatar is not only right but a significant recognition of DIFFERENCE. For the World Cup to live up to its name, it must not be determined by Europe and the so-called footballing nations. Qatar has not done anything outside what past hosts had done to secure their hosting rights. Sorry ABC, the World does not begin and end with Europe and its affiliates.Appreciate, recognise, and accept DIFFERENCE!
... especially phenomenally wealthy "DIFFERENCE" that can buy whatever and whoever it wants, eh?
Qatar hosting is a joke, the team is trash and this year shows how corrupt FIFA is
Beckham never fails to disappoint.
It is only because of his ethnicity that he has received all the publicity....He is rated way above his real value.
His son is an absolute thicko....and the publicity surrounding him is part of the rediculous media attention.
So Beckheim is of a certain ethnicity like the owners of the giant media organisations.....this explains HOW Beckheim has got to this position....after all it is common knowledge he is highly unintelligent....
@@bertplank8011 I think it has more to do with his looks which has given him a name recognition bar none among footballers.
I really wanted him to use air quotes when talking about Qatar’s “winter”.
I just hate the fact that we have to change an entire football calender just so that one country should host the world cup. Unpopular idea, maybe countries which have unsuitable weather climate to host a tournament in the summer, shouldnt be hosting the world cup.
Other leagues should change their calendar. World cup is the biggest event and no league can match it.
@@SachiraBhanuworld cup ain't paying all the players wages are they? World Cup is an honour to be a part of, but it's FIFAs job to find a suitable host given the climate and schedule to European leagues and others.

Australia is going to get it in the next 20 years after World Cup 2030 (FIFA will most likely hold it first in South America for the 100 year anniversary). I can see Oceania (Australia/New Zealand) hosting the mens World Cup (depending on how the womens World Cup goes) and also China hosting it with then next 20 years (starting in 2030).

@@youtubeexpert2441it's not that the game is going to be bad it is not that other countries are perfect it's literally because they have modern day slavery currently going on. That's literally the only reason.

It’s ridiculous statement. If u talk about pay, Brazil and South African workers never got paid enough as well. As for as international platform and west is concerned, no one cares unless there is benefit for them.

Disappointing to see a major news organization do such a terrible job. I'm an expat living in Qatar, and see quite a different perspective. They seem to have done no research, just recycled numbers from various different organizations. For instance, on cost: they briefly mention the 6 bn or so for the stadia, which is probably about right. Pretty much everything else they discuss are projects that already needed to happen in the country (Metro, etc.). Falsely state the Lusail is "only built for the World Cup." I'm sure the WC was an impetus, but it is a vibrant city full of real businesses and people living there, hardly just built for the WC. Also, fail to mention that Qatar was always committed to doing the WC during the usual schedule in the summer, promising to bring in air conditioned stadia. The stadia have indeed incorporated this technology, though I've not doubt it will be a more pleasant experience for players and visitors to be here in the winter. The numbers on migrant deaths are also massively inflated (assuming every expat who dies in the country was due to working on WC projects).
Am i the only one wondering how was David Beckham wearing a leather jacket in such scorching heat weather?? 🤣

Being a middle eastren living next to Qatar ( UAE ) I would agree that Australia should be the host of fifa 2022. Qatar football history does not support it so I would understand additionally human rights breaches against labor workers and I would say that with a heavy heart not only in Qatar but even in my country is devastating and not fair .. I am an advocate for human right and I really love how my country is actively enhancing policies around worker rights .. Fifa is corrupted full of bribery this is a fact so well informative video hoping Australia will host the next Fifa world cup
اتحدى انك اماراتي كل تبن بس
You’re absolutely right, the problem is so many people are spreading hate against Qatar now /aka the Middle East…..because of differences in culture And ignoring the fact that other countries also didn’t have the best interest of heart for migrant workers.
It is called the WORLD CUP not the certain nations get to host it cup, countries other then the logical choices should get a chance to host the tournament if they say they can host it.
Not when they bribe for it
Can you proof it?
It's not good for the players to be in that country if they happen to be homosexual. They can actually be locked up unless they're under contract that they promised they do not lock them up
Just a minor correction here. U said that no country has refused to go out of protest but that''s not true. Scotland has refused to go. Yes Scotland does compete separate from England Wales and North Ireland when it comes to Soccer world cup and I've heard mumblings that there may be an option in the Olympics that Scottish or Welsh born Olympians will be allowed to choose whether they want to rep their birth place (Scotland or Wales) or the UK.

I don't blame Qatar because I'm not shocked at all, I knew l this was gonna happen. If anything I blame FIFA for even thinking that Qatar would honor a promise that is in direct opposition to their religion. Should've had a different country host the cup.
But I have a question about how it will be placed in America when they have problems because of weapons and racism against blacks
@@m.a4961 So, because I had an understanding of Qatar's current political/religious state, along with an understanding of how integrated the LGBTQ+ movement had become in football, that makes me have a phobia of Islam? Your reaching my friend, unless you support the idea oppressing gay people and your are just trying to make me out to be a bad guy?
@@m.a4961 Well, there actually would not be any problems at all for two reason.
1. I don't know if you have ever been to a World Cup but that event is guarded better than national leaders. There is no chance someone could sneak a pocket knife into that event, let alone a gun.
2. The entire population of America is not made up of racist people, if anything racist people are a minority group. The only reason why it seems like they are a bigger issue than they really are is for the same reason why the loudest person in a room gets the most attention, they say things that get peoples attention. If you think that Racism is a huge problem in America that you probably have never gone and visited it. Or if you do live in America than you for sure have never stepped outside once in your life
@@sabola1274 So the speech is also addressed to you. Have you ever visited Qatar or lived in it so that you can judge our customs, traditions and religion? I judge America from your media, which says that most Americans are racists, and it is the same media that says about us that we are barbarians. So you believe what they tell you, about us but we don't have to believe what is told about your country?
@@m.a4961 I have never once listened to any of the statements made by my countries media when it comes to matters of other countries. I have always fact checked the statements made by my country through sources outside my countries influence to verify if the statements are true or false. When I learned that Qatar would be the host I immediately began to look into the country to see if any problems would come up, just like how problems have come up before during past World Cups in other countries. Did not take me long to find about Penal Code 2004 and Sharia Law. After a little more research I made a prediction.
There was going to be mistreatment of LGBTQ+ people and supporters.
And guess what, I was correct, more so than I could have predicted. So sure, I've never been to Qatar, but I did plenty of research to compensate for that fact. And in doing so, ending up having a better understanding of what was going to happen in your country than even FIFA did.
After the 1 month football event, all the stadiums over there in the end are majority being semi abandoned. 🤷🏻♂️⚽️
great narrator , very well explained .
All the dead under the pitch and the guys in chains ⛓
Im not a soccer fan and know little about the game. I understand global its #1. With that said and the fact that Europe, South America have the greatest talented teams. Yes perhaps Australia and Africa deserve mention. Regardless Qatar certainly isn’t an ideal location for games that traditionally occur in June/July. To change that in my view shows that our world is money driven and everything and everyone comes after that. I would have encouraged the major teams to stay home in protest. Unfortunately money guided them too.
Great documentary on the FIFA world cup. Some interesting insights..
The world cup should go round the globe people should see different cultures
Boycott this world cup, Human right abuses in the name of these games is appalling
Too late darlin everything sold out and fast
You believe everything you see on the news.
Tbf you don't need to be a "powerhouse" of football to host the world cup. In 2002, neither South Korea nor Japan were powerhouses.
Yeah but Qatar never even qualified before 2022
@@Artemi099 And neither had Japan when they won the bid. First WC for them was in 98.
Great job making the video.
Professional critics criticize your work after it is completed, and the enemies of success distort your achievements before they begin.
This is full of "one sided" propaganda. Take a chill pill guys.
Australia should get the World Cup in 2030.
“Two tventy two vorld cup” 😂😂
Imagine what you could do with 220 billion dollars for the world. Apparently ending poverty takes about 50 billion
If west is so much concern about human rights in Qatar than why don't they stop buying Oil and Gas from Qatar and other Middle East Arab countries. A day without Hypocrisy is a day wasted - ft. West and Europe
Ahahaha what a great comment bro 🔥
The reason they don’t really care about human rights, they just want the world to flow their agenda
And you believe individual people have that right? Because regular people on the internet do not have that right we don't go to the Middle East and buy oil that's our government and we cannot control that. But people can't control whether or not they attend these games.
Slavery modern day😊
hypocrisy 🙄
This is the first world cup where the stadiums were built on poor Indian, Bangladeshi worker's blood, literally. That is different from all other WCs. Congrats FIFA, Beckham!
workers from Nepal, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Africa as well. Congrats UEFA president Platini and French pres.Sarkozy.
Within ten years, the total number of accidents for workers in Qatar is not less than what happens in any European country, but the Western media exaggerates the numbers, as it took the total number of deaths, including those unrelated to work in the facilities. This is all the hatred and jealousy of a small Arab Muslim country that organizes an event like this
I wonder how aware of things in Qatar Beckham really was. I agree with what he's saying about the importance of having different hosts, but I wonder if it was a case of the wool being pulled over his eyes, or him selling out. As the games start and more and more publicity surrounds the human rights issues, it will be interested to see if Beckham changes his tune. Also... it's a shame that Fifa is what it is... I'm surprised that teams or individuals are not boycotting the games... I feel like there's enough personal star power among some of these players that if they decided to put up a stink and try to fight the corruption, something would actually get done. I'm also wondering if we are beginning to see the social downfall of Ronaldo and if he in turn will act as a spokesman against all the corruption.
Money talks and talks and talks and if you don't talk I'll make you talk.💰
The FA of the qualified nations are NOT doing nearly enough! Imagine if half the countries didn't show up for the world cup?
Excellent information and reporting
Respect the culture applies both ways. All immigrants in Europe should also respect the local culture and not revolt when countries make rules to save their values and culture.
Values of oppression, worker abuse and money laundering 🤔🤔
Not respecting human rights CAN´T be label as "culture".
Its easy to respect an culture that is developed and in the frames of 2022. Qatars culture is in the frames of last century Europe. As long as I dont see many people waiting to work for Qatar while our EU embassyies are full in line I cant say that the respect of cultural values can work. In Europe an foreginer can be almost everything even president of the sate, Qatar, an LGBTQ couble cant be in the same hotel room, and if you tell me that in Qatar there is no homosexuals, wtf. So yea, ritch people from Qatar love to come to Europe, they can do whatever they want, rich folks from Europe, what can they do in Qatar? Begg for a beer... Football is an sport for the 21. century, Qatar has no tradition in the sport, and thats why we see them not understanding why no beer on stadium is so horrible. I could noot book a hotel room in Qatar, cus me and mine GF are not married, so when u people say respect the culture, please first try to book something for the World cup.
Migrants are only 2% of Europe yet everyday Europeans cry about an invasion. Qataris are already minorities in their own country and they have no problem with it.
@@Jopa955 bro wrote a paragraph complaining about a country he will never afford to visit
The US and European countries and South American countries are in no position to critise Qatar 🇶🇦 they should look at there history of slavery
But are they doing it right now? And are women in Western countries treated as slaves? Exactly
The worst possible decision ever. FIFA cares about human rights, racism etc until the big bags of money sit in the locker room.
For Starters its in the winter. No World Cup has ever not been in the summer.
South Africa 2010 was held in the South African winter
despite all the controversy going about corruptions and all that happened in Qatar i really cant judge. but Qatar should be a nice location to add to my must visit bucket list, traveling is just so much fun and wish to go for this world cup but it all balls down to finance 😔 , I am really happy I was introduced to Mr. Robert David, I must say, financially he turned my story around now i can afford the luxury of traveling to beautiful and enchanting locations like Qatar
You're totally right friend, if only I knew him sooner, my life would have been filled with adventures, well the important thing is that I am benefiting and making profit with his help and I am very happy I know him
A similar documentary about clashing Quatar was also made to clash Brazil 🇧🇷 on hosting 2014 WC but still the Tournament was held in a normal spectacular way . Good luck to All teams ⚽️🏆
Even south they did the same
❤Qatar❤
Yeah, always these journalists trying to demoralize societies, they s*cks.
How come when the World cup was hosted by Brazil, South Africa, Russia or any other country people didn't criticise FIFA, the people who were evolved, and many other issues. How come people are only criticising Qatar etc. Its not fair.
There’s plenty of obvious reasons for Qatar to be so criticized
Who's to be held responsible for any mishaps in case something happens during the world cup?
good question
Sepp (Leaky) Blatter *_pissed_* all over the sport!
Sepp was corrupt asf
What a world we live in.
Nothing says carbon neutral more than air conditioned stadions in a petrol state! Brilliant
Australia are going after the Qataris making every effort to give bad view because they lost the bid.. what about how they treat indigenous people
Good reporting
the last line sums it all
I would love to bring my family to australia to watch a world cup, but definitely not to qatar
Because there's no alcohol,no nudity, no homosexualities, no prostitutions that's why.
@@doctorstrange3551 And also no wine, swine, and dine AG wHAT A SHAME
@@doctorstrange3551art of the reason why. But there's also no human rights women can't go out by themselves
Qatar lah dibanding Australia hahahhaa
The world cup in November for Aussie fans is perfect. There isn't a lot of other sport here that time of year and people have more time off work to stay up late and watch it.
❤Qatar❤
All those rumours is because the world cup Will be Arabic nation, but if it was Europe we could not here those none sense
Simple rules: Dont drink alcohol, dont commit same sex act. That's it, dont like it ? Don't go. Just respect other people rules & culture
Exactly, just stay away if you dont like it.
But yet they don't respect our culture when they come to our countries but we got to respect theirs? I refuse to respect any person's culture that are basically in work of modern-day slavery. And those players are forced to go and they could be in danger.
Australia would've been a great host. Some stadiums would need extending but it's far more feasible than Qatar.
Keep being salty. Hahaha 😂😂😂
10:35 Hey that's Michael Platini everyone!
When and where there is alot of money involved there will always be curruption! Especially if there is alot of people involved!
I’m not even gonna lie, I reckon Qatars national team would beat Australia 😂
Yes, they are about the same level now. I think they'll beat the socceroos. They defeated japan to win the asia cup.
You may be right they did win the Asian Cup in 2019
It isn't Qatar national team. It is World national team. Check Qatar players nationalities. lol
Qatar bought players from all around the world.
So excited for the Qatar World Cup to start 🙌
