About the World Cup
Competitions & Awards , Middle East/West Asia
Ends: Dec 18, 2022
DESCRIPTION:
The FIFA World Cup, a football/soccer tournament played by professional adult male athletes, is the most anticipated sporting event in the world. In 2022 the event will occur in Doha, Qatar, and will feature 32 teams playing in 64 matches over 28 days in eight stadiums. The event provides temporary employment for over 30,000 people and draws over one million fans.
The championship began in 1872, with a match between England and Scotland in Glasgow. In 1884 it was expanded to international teams, becoming the official championship in 1906 after the creation of FIFA in 1904. At the time, the World Cup was tied to the Olympics, which required amateur rather than professional athletes to compete. The year 1924 began the creation of football tournaments specifically for professional athletes. The first official World Cup was played in Uruguay on July 13, 1930, between Uruguay and Argentina, and Uruguay took the cup.
The game is played every four years, except in 1942 and 1946, both suspended due to World War II. Brazil currently leads with five World Cup titles. In 2026, the World Cup will expand to 48 teams and be held in three countries: The United States, Canada, and Mexico.
