I exactly think the same way about allowing these countries to host great tournaments, that's simple they don't have enough facilities and that's not a wise move to let a country without enough facilities host the world cup because there will be consequences even after hosting the world cup, many people are unhappy about the time they spent in Qatar.

That never really mattered to them at all. Qatar is seen "fine" by the west because they can get love from them, Qatar may act as if they do like western people or at least the ones at the top could, but in theory there is really nothing that different fundamentally between Qatar and North Korea, sure the media will make you believe there is, but this is the same nation that thousands of people died to build these stadiums and other stuff so they can host World Cup.

The only thing Fifa cares about is money, if you pay them the bribe you should, then you are going to have the world cup. I am sure North Korea could pay a lot and still won't have it, but they do not really care about anything else, they just care about the money. Saudi Arabia is not democracy for example, they have nepotism and dictatorship, so one family rules it with iron fist, no elections, and if they pay the bribe, they can host it too.

Now Imagine some people think Saudi Arabia can be a good host for the next world cup after 2026, there we are going to see the same story we saw in Qatar and even worst than Qatar because they have more complicated rules.
That's why I think choosing America as the world cup host was a good move because there they have more freedom and people who visit this country will not have the same problems they had in Qatar.

That is one of the few reasons why the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia didn't win the bid and was not chosen by the FIFA congress to host the next world cup after 2026, there was some saying that Saudi Arabia will join forces with Egypt and Greece to host the 2030 WC but that wasn't pushed through because of what happened in the recent World Cup 2023 where people weren't that much happy because they are not that free to do what they wanted because there are rules that needed to be observed which is common in a Muslim country. But Saudi Arabia wasn't really disappointed because the FIFA gave them the right to host the 2027 Asian Cup.

Qatar - saudia and UAE are rich counties and they can be a very good host
but I think islamic values make things difficult for the non muslism

I always supported the idea that if you are going to do a world cup, then you do it in a nation filled with football history and culture. There is nothing else you need, it could be even a poor nation and they would still have everything you need.

Argentina is famously a poor nation, they had record breaking inflation after inflation and you could stay at a five star hotel literally for 10 bucks a day, that is the cheapness level and poverty level they have, and yet if you do a world cup there, between the amazing stadiums and the football culture and people who would love to watch it, you are going to end up with a lot of fans and a great world cup. Wealth doesn't equal a good world cup, love of football does equal it without a doubt though.

it's not easy to host the world cup, even a country like brazil ends up in a lot of debt for hosting the olympics, with huge inflation it will only kill argentina if it hosts the world cup

I see that the 2026 world cup is actually very unique because the 3 countries have different economic strengths and in the future it will be a great solution for other countries (to not host the world cup alone)

if that is correct - I think only the rich country should host the world cup
like for example Qatar has gifted and donated almost everything they have made for the world cup - from buses till the living space they have donated it

Does countries host worldcup without support from FIFA?, I am very curious to know, because I don't see why hosting the World cup should lead to debt for the country that hosted it, if this is true, then it means several countries will not be willing to host the tournament in the fear of accumulating debt, most especially, countries that are already in lots of debt already..

Hosting the world cup has always been a privilege for any country, atleast, this is what I think, if a country should host the world cup and end up in debt because of it, then I don't see how that is a privilege.

That is correct and it brings in so many people from around the globe .. and only the rich country would host world cup never would be a poor country

A country that has much love football, this love is not enough for the country to host world cup. For a country to host world cup their are many things that are required for a country to get opportunity of hosting world cup. Good facilities, security and other things , this must be available.

In fact sometimes when they let a country with a bad financial situation host the world cup they will allow the country to have visitors from all over the world these visitors will bring more demand to that country, and that's another reason when I say I think letting Qatar host the world cup was not a good experience but next time in America, Canada, and Mexico we will have a better experience and there will be a good chance or these countries.

If this is Lionel Messi's last World Cup, then this World Cup will be a remarkable achievement of his life. I think Lionel Messi's achievements are no longer lacking. But in the next World Cup, I think Brazil will be the favourite. Because the Brazil team has some young players who will take themselves to unique heights come the next World Cup.

Messi was under a lot of pressure from the public in Argentina for a long time because they compared him to Maradona and said that he cannot be the greatest Argentine footballer of all time without the title of world champion in football.
Now Messi has finally managed to bring the title of world champion to Argentina, but for many football fans, including me, Maradona will remain the greatest football player in the history of football. What Maradona showed at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico has never been repeated by anyone, it was football perfection.
As for Brazil, they have been the main favorites at every World Cup for the past 20 years, but they always lack something to go all the way and become world champions.

The quality of the stadiums and any other facilities should be obviously higher than the last world cup we saw because four years passed and we can have better technologies for stadiums and this can definitely help the hosts, while in some countries they don't have a good financial system like Qatar does, they can't provide good quality facilities if they don't already have enough facilities.

Well, 2 out of the 3 countries have already hosted the world cup in the past, Mexico and the US. So basically there's a big chance they would just be reusing their current infrastructure.

I don't think they're going to spend too much making new stadiums or renovating old ones.

Well, there is a tons of money in NFL, more than in any other sport and more than if we combine some European football leagues together. So, Americans have great stadiums because of NFL and since this sport is very popular and active in America, definitely the infrastructure doesn't feel that old and degraded. Yeah, definitely Qatar is a brand new country with brand new infrastructure but I don't think that we will feel bad experience in the USA.

Absolutely agreed.

We saw that in Qatar. Money just cannot buy football skills. They were the worst team by far, I don't think they should have been there as they lowered the whole average skill of the tournament.

There's no need to have a wealthy country as host, many others have already the infrastructure needed, so you can just reuse them. South America and Europe have countless of stadiums that can be used, and the football quality is the best of the world.

The World Cup held in Qatar will be the best in history, one of the reasons being the stadiums. Qatar really spent a lot of money behind the stadiums which are really nice to see. Besides, every stadium was modernized. The spectators got to enjoy the football game in full royal fashion.

Even for the 2026 World Cup, I don't think that alcoholic beverages other than beer will be available at the stadiums. And ever since I have started watching football, I have never witnessed any issue related to alcohol during the matches. In western nations, people know how to behave themselves after taking alcohol. And in the third world nations, there is a blanket ban on such beverages. Anyway, I am of the opinion that the authorities should not tell to ordinary people what they should eat or drink. Whether or not to consume alcohol should be a decision to be made by the fans themselves.

Never understood the pleasure of drinking beer in a stadium. As you know, it is processed very quickly and you have to run to the toilet (which is usually full) during the game. It is absolutely inconvenient and unfun in my opinion.
By the way, about the fact that beer is considered a "light" alcoholic drink, I also have a big misunderstanding - with a sufficient amount of alcohol drunk, it causes no less intoxicating effect than other drinks.
But in general, I agree that as long as a person does not interfere with others, he himself has the right to decide what to drink and eat.

Some people like to drink beer and some other people don't like it but the whole point of this story is about the rules and freedom because if a country is hosting the world cup they should give enough freedom to people who came to this country for watching the world cup games and since drinking alcoholic drinks is something many people do, I was expecting to see Qatar allows that, but I'm sure in 2026 that's not forbidden in America.

Do you all think that the FIFA authorities can organize the next World Cup like the World Cup in Qatar? In fact, although the FIFA authorities have made a great contribution to organizing this World Cup, the country where it will be hosted needs the most craftsmanship. From that point of view, I don't think any other country like Qatar can spend so much money on football world cup.

Sometimes it's not about spending too much money but it's all about respecting the people who come to the country to watch the world cup games and giving them some freedom, even if you spend millions of dollars still you can't provide all the visitors wants from your country, I think in the next cups we see we will never have another host like Qatar with these rules but because of the experience FIFA had in the past.

You have logic. But we have to remember that every country has its own rules, and we have to keep in mind that Qatar is a Muslim country. We as human beings consider it our moral duty to follow the rules and regulations of every country. We have to admit that Qatar has given football fans an amazing World Cup. We also want football fans to enjoy the next World Cup independently.

I don't think they're going to spend too much making new stadiums or renovating old ones.

Most of the time it's not about stadiums, it's about other stuff as well. Qatar didn't spent 200 billion on stadiums, not even close, that was just a few billion dollars and all the others went to many more airports (or renovation to the current ones) state of the art hospitals, with literally everything you could ever imagine and not just one, nearly a dozen, roads that would be not just regular roads, but bridges and sea tunnels and so forth as well. Basically they built the nation from ground up.

So, USA and Mexico and Canada could end up still spending billions on this. Russia had stadiums too, but spent nearly 20 billion on this, why? Because they needed to be ready for all those people coming in. You need to remember that in most of the time you do not expect tens of millions of people to come and go in a month period, that's extra and that requires getting ready.

It is that the Construction to comply with the FIFA protocols currently must be more demanding than those that were for Qatar, and yet they still demanded, however they complied and that is what is sought, that the coming World Cup has to overcome the previous one, because otherwise it does not make sense to ask for a World Cup to be held in their countries, then when Seeing all these things the expense that these 3 countries have to make is very large, and they should not skimp on doing so to comply and be the better,that's why I'm curious to see if the integration of these three countries is fulfilled.

I think in the USA there is no problem with this, at least in various funny videos (which I sometimes watch) from their stadiums, beer appears very often. The only thing that can lead to certain incidents is the age at which you can legally drink alcohol - if I remember correctly, in some states it is 21 years old and for example, some tourist from Europe aged 19-20 years old can be very surprised.

Even for the 2026 World Cup, I don't think that alcoholic beverages other than beer will be available at the stadiums. And ever since I have started watching football, I have never witnessed any issue related to alcohol during the matches. In western nations, people know how to behave themselves after taking alcohol. And in the third world nations, there is a blanket ban on such beverages. Anyway, I am of the opinion that the authorities should not tell to ordinary people what they should eat or drink. Whether or not to consume alcohol should be a decision to be made by the fans themselves.

Never understood the pleasure of drinking beer in a stadium. As you know, it is processed very quickly and you have to run to the toilet (which is usually full) during the game. It is absolutely inconvenient and unfun in my opinion.
By the way, about the fact that beer is considered a "light" alcoholic drink, I also have a big misunderstanding - with a sufficient amount of alcohol drunk, it causes no less intoxicating effect than other drinks.
But in general, I agree that as long as a person does not interfere with others, he himself has the right to decide what to drink and eat.

Some people like to drink beer and some other people don't like it but the whole point of this story is about the rules and freedom because if a country is hosting the world cup they should give enough freedom to people who came to this country for watching the world cup games and since drinking alcoholic drinks is something many people do, I was expecting to see Qatar allows that, but I'm sure in 2026 that's not forbidden in America.

Do you all think that the FIFA authorities can organize the next World Cup like the World Cup in Qatar? In fact, although the FIFA authorities have made a great contribution to organizing this World Cup, the country where it will be hosted needs the most craftsmanship. From that point of view, I don't think any other country like Qatar can spend so much money on football world cup.

I am sure that the answer is yes and that soon, maybe already in 7 years, we could see that the world championship is organized by an even richer country than Qatar.
In fact, this is not an assumption but a very real possibility because Saudi Arabia has already expressed its interest in organizing the 2030 World Cup.
It seems that in the future, rich Arab countries may perceive the organization of the world football cups as a matter of prestige and great international promotion, just as it is now a matter of prestige for them to buy English clubs. Grin

Football today is more than ever linked to profit.

It was perhaps the most unexpected result during Qatar 2022. No one expected Argentina to go down against Saudi Arabia, and that too in their first match. But to their credit, Argentina recovered well, and never lost another match in the tournament. Saudi Arabia on the other hand failed to qualify for the round of 16. But then, the edition of 2022 was full of surprises. Brazil lost to Cameroon, France lost to Tunisia, Germany lost to Japan and so on. I just hope that in 2026 also we will be able to witness similar upsets.

That's the luck of Qatar when they had one of the best games in any world cup we have seen. I mean surely there must have been some other world cup with great results as well, but for example this final has been one of the best finals we have ever seen.

A 2-2 ending with 2 goals from France coming in the last 12 minutes, then 1-1 on overtime when both teams scored, a last minute near impossible save by Martinez on the very last seconds of the game, and then penalties that were amazing to watch as well. All in all it felt like it was the best game I have seen in a long time, not just in a world cup but I haven't seen a game that hyped for a long time, everyone felt joy when watching it, if you are a football fan, you loved that game without a doubt, no matter who you rooted for.

I guess that made a lot of people watch it and have more fun, but nobody knew that would happen before the game though, so just because the game ended that way doesn't mean they were better, it just means they were not ready for it. Sure the final got a lot of views afterwards, from youtube and repeats and all that, but I would guess that whoever watched it at the time, would have watched it whatever the result was, so it shouldn't be a shocking result.

In the end, we are talking about Qatar facing so many troubles due to the fact that thousands of people died building everything, so they got some attention like they wanted to, but the attention they got wasn't really for things that they would want to be known for, it was all bad media and to be fair if what is told is true, then I am afraid they deserved it as well.
