2022 World Cup Will
Not Be In Qatar … FIFA
BLAMES WEATHER
BERLIN, Sept 22 (Reuters) – The 2022 World Cup will not be held in Qatar because of the scorching temperatures in the Middle East country, FIFA Executive Committee member Theo Zwanziger said on Monday. “I personally think that in the end the 2022 World Cup will not take place in Qatar,” the German told Sport Bild on Monday.
“They may be able to cool the stadiums but a World Cup does not take place only there,”Zwanziger said.”Fans from around the world will be coming and traveling in this heat and the first life-threatening case will trigger an investigation by a state prosecutor.
No mention was made of Qatar’s role as a major sponsor of ISIS.
