The 2022 FIFA World Cup is set to be hosted by Qatar, making it the first Muslim-majority nation to host the event. The decision has been met with controversy due to the country's human rights record and allegations of corruption in the bidding process. Despite this, Qatar has promised to spend billions of dollars on infrastructure, stadiums, and other facilities in preparation for the tournament. Qatar has also pledged to invest in its own football development, hoping to use the tournament to grow the game in the region. The tournament will also be the first to be held in the winter months, due to the extreme heat in Qatar during the summer.
