In November–December 2022, Qatar will host the FIFA World Cup, which will be the first time the competition is hosted in the Middle East. The competition has been rescheduled to the winter months, precisely November 21 to December 18, 2022, to avoid the scorching summer temperatures in Qatar. To safeguard the players' and spectators' security and welfare, this modification was implemented. Teams from all around the world compete in a variety of matches to determine the football world champion during the World Cup, which normally lasts a month.
