Doha. FIFA World Cup 2022 is being held in Qatar. Now only 13 days are left for this event. All the teams are ready for this great football tournament. Earlier, FIFA has warned all 32 teams in writing to stay away from unnecessary controversies and now focus only on football. The FIFA World Cup will start from November 20. Significantly, since handing over the hosting of the World Cup to Qatar, many players and former players have been against it. She has been criticized for her stance on human rights abuses and LGBTQ in Qatar. But now FIFA has advised players to stay away from these.
How will the teams protest in their own style?
England’s Harry Kane and nine other European team captains will wear ‘One Love’ armbands in support of the LGBTQ community.
The Danish team will wear a toned down T-shirt. The kit provider says that thousands of people have lost their lives there due to negligence in the construction works. So this is our way of protesting.
Australian football has released a video urging Qatar to repeal its laws on gay relationships.
– Despite being the defending winner, matches will not be shown on big screens in public areas in Paris and many other cities of France.
FIFA President said, ‘Don’t drag football into this fight’
Let us tell you that FIFA is very cautious about this matter, that is why recently FIFA, in a letter to the football associations of all 32 countries participating in the World Cup, said that football should not be dragged into ideological or political battles. The letter, signed by FIFA President Gianni Infantino and Secretary General Fatma Samoura, reads: “We know there are many challenges along the way, but please do not allow football to drag you into every ideological or political battle.”
