Money solves everything
Money has dominated the coverage of the proposed Qatar Cup in 2022. It is common knowledge that the emirate nation is oil-rich and as a result, per capita is the most wealthy nation in the world.
The knock-on effect of this means that fans, players and in fact anyone associated with the month long festival of football can bank on no stone being left unturned as the nation of Qatar try to deliver a truly spectacular showpiece. It has already led to the employment of luminaries such as Zinedine Zidane and Pep Guardiola to endorse the event.
The 2014 Brazil World Cup came under questioning due to the lack of transport infrastructure in the country to host a major tournament and was criticised for ‘not being ready’, there is little to no chance of this happening in Qatar.
