Qatar ends World Cup campaign

 Qatar ends World Cup campaign

Qatar was the first World Cup host country to be eliminated in two games after

losing 1-3 to Senegal on the 28th and the worst performance ever by the host

country on the 22nd.


On Friday, the 2022 World Cup hosts became one of the top two teams in

Group A, making it mathematically impossible to advance to the next round.

The Netherlands and Ecuador each won the first match of the tournament.

Ecuador beat Qatar 2-0 to draw 1-1 on Friday.


Qatar lost 0-2 to the Netherlands on Tuesday and finished the World Cup by

three losses and six goals. Qatar led 7-1.


Qatar's chances of advancing to the tournament were slim, but its elimination

in two matches is nothing more than a huge disappointment for a country that

has been preparing for the World Cup for more than a decade. Qatar's

national football team's infrastructure was built for the tournament and the

national team played at events such as the North American Gold Cup to

prepare for the World Cup.


Qatar will join South Africa as the only host country to be eliminated from the

World Cup in the group stage. South Africa held the opening ceremony of the

World Cup in a draw with Mexico, but beating France in the final group stage

was not enough for Mexico to lead by goal difference.  스포츠토토


And while South Africa was an easy team to cheer for 12 years ago, millions

of people around the world are undoubtedly delighted that Qatar's World Cup

has ended in the group stage, given the myriad controversies surrounding the

tournament. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, a number of FIFA

officials took bribes to vote for Qatar as the host country of the tournament.

And after Qatar succeeded in hosting the World Cup, poor treatment of

thousands of migrant workers who helped build the stadium became a black

mark of the tournament, along with the country's poor human rights record.
