I upgraded my article about the world cup history just before the kick off in Qatar.
Qatar 2022 (politics and boycott) They did not change the format and the number of teams participating. So we still get eight groups of four teams. Controversy or not, for the first time the World cup is hosted by an Islamic country. Beside the election process, many people talked about corruption and the violating of human rights. Reading this document, people understand that corruption is not new. The difficulty is to decide what corruption is and what forms it takes.
