FIFA WORLD CUP
The FIFA World Cup is definitely a very much anticipated period for fans all over the world. It takes places every four years and it is one of the largest events in the world, comparable to the Olympic Games.
Soon, and already this month (June 14) we will see the start of the next FIFA World Cup in Russia. It is an amazing fact that in 2010 we knew who would be the organizer of the event in 2018. Russia in 2010 began to prepare for the organization of this event. Fans from all the world are waiting for this moment.
At the FIFA World Cup, matches will be played in 11 cities in 12 stadiums. The smallest stadium is able to accommodate 35,000 people(Kaliningrad Stadium), and the largest stadium can accommodate up to 81,000 people(Luzhniki Stadium). There will be as many as 32 teams at the FIFA World Cup. Each team will play at least 3 matches. Only 2 best teams from each group (in the group there are 4 teams) will be promotedto the 1/8 finals. In the best case, the team will play 7 matches up to the final or the match for the 3rdplace. Fans of will definitely want their teams to play more than 3 matches. I personally believe in our national team - Poland will manage to play even 7 matches. I think the chance of achieving success is big. I will support them with all my heart and I will watch every match with Poland.
The most important match, the final will be at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow on 15 July. There will be 64 matches played duringthe tournament, so I hope this event is worth watching. The last winner, in 2014, was Germany thatthen won the 4th FIFA World Cuptitle, while Brazil has the most trophies - 5.
During the FIFA World Cup there will be 36 refereesand their two assistants. That is a total of 108 referees.
Poland participated in the world championships in 2006 and it was 7th performance in history. At this championship it will be already the 8thperformance. The greatest success is definitely 3rd place in 1974 and 1982. Unfortunately, since then, the Polish national team has had a crisis. In the current situation the team look very good and certainly has a chance to achieve similar success as in previous years. Everything is due to the best coach of recent years - Adam Nawałka. He rebuilt our team and now we are going to succeedin the FIFA World Cup (I hope).
At the very end I want topresent some interesting factsabout the upcoming event:
· Official Song - Live It Up (Nicky Jam song)
· Match ball - Telstar18 by Adidas
· Mascot – Zabivaka (The photo is underneath)

In my opinion, soccer is a team sport and a fascinating team that happens unpredictably and has a lot of excitement.My favorite team is Portugal.
The games will be held at a very high level, Qatar is the first country in the Middle East to host the tournament. In my opinion, it will be a big deal for a small country like Qatar.
I know for sure that countries that host such events have a lot of complication during organization process. For some countries, it's even not affordable to host such events. As I mentioned before I'm not interested in such event and cannot comment about the championship in Qatar in 2022.
I think it's not such a bad idea to organize sporting events in my country. In fact, similar football event took place in my country six years ago.
I will support team from my country so… POLAND will win! Generally I’ve heard that Russia is well prepared for this championships but of course we can’t be sure for 100%, it’s Russia. I don’t have much to say about next championship in Qatar, I don’t know enough details about it. I’d love to see world championships in my country but at least, six years ago in my country were organized Europe championships.
I don't have enough experience to be able to say something. Generally I would say that I support my country but I actually don't. I don't mind whether my country is going to win or not.
I think Russia has enough resources to be able to hold such an event. I would say that everything should be OK but as far as I know the russians may behave themself inadequate. That's why I consider that everying should be almost OK :)
As I said I am not a great football fan and I don't mind about the fact that oneday such championship will be organized in my country
I don'r really think that these games have a big impact on politics so it doesn't matter that much where they are held.
Being a host of such games is a big cost so I would not want my country to hold a worldcup championships.
No, I think it's waste of time and money of millions of people.
2. What do you think about these games? Do you think that the next championship in Qatar in 2022 is a good idea?
I don't care about such events. I think Qatar can afford an event of this scale.
3. Would you like the championships to be organized in your country someday? Or maybe it has already happened?
I think championships is a hilarious waste of money, so I hope this events would take place somewhere else.
Actually I am watching the most surprising game right now, Argentina vs Iceland :)
2. What do you think about these games? Do you think that the next championship in Qatar in 2022 is a good idea?
I think that World Cup in Qatar is certainly going to be well organized from technical point of view, since we can count on a lot of funds invested from the money of the sheikhs. However, an interesting fact is that Qatar's area is really small as to be able to host 8 roster groups of 4 teams each playing matches. A good comparison is that 4 years later the same event will be hosted in three big countries jointly - USA, Mexico and Canada.
3. Would you like the championships to be organized in your country someday? Or maybe it has already happened ?
Well, we had Euro 2012 and it went so so. Some say that it has been a great boost for economy, others argue that maybe so, but not in line with the rules of sustainable development and a lot of investments and infrastructure developments have been not well organized financially.
near future.
We already had Euro in poland and it kinda make big impact on us. I cannot imagine another panorama of right side without national stadium like the one we got. Also i think we could be hosts of World Cup in 2026, sadly i think it wont happen.
Hmm championship in Qatar sounds awesome, but I guess it might be to expensive for common people to go there and watch matches in real. By the way I've heard that Qatar is pretty restricitve and wouldn't be hard to even get there?
We had Euro 2012, as long it was fun for us it was cool but then we had to face with problems like crowds, traffics, etc. So organising champiuonship is a huge thing for country economy but for regular people it's not that valuable.
I am not a big fan of football, usually I don’t watch matches. But Word Cup is a different case, of course I will watch matches witch Poland, also I think I watch the final game, maybe with Poland. I still wait for Poland matches and I also support Poland.
What do you think about these games? Do you think that the next championship in Qatar in 2022 is a good idea?
I think that is good tradition and we should support that. I think that every country had equal chances, and Qatar is good choice.
Would you like the championships to be organized in your country someday? Or maybe it has already happed ?
It already happened in 2012 and thats been good times.
I like more American football and rugby than soccer. But as everyone else - I support the Polish representation even if I'm not watching nor interested in this sport.
2. What do you think about these games? Do you think that the next championship in Qatar in 2022 is a good idea?
There will be hard to play for everyone... Most probably the temperatures would be high and make it hard for everyone living in the cooler countries.
3. Would you like the championships to be organized in your country someday? Or maybe it has already happed?
Why not? Good reason to improve transportation around cities and whole country, and after Euro 2012 it would be cheaper to reuse those stadiums we already have.
Championship in Qatar in 2022 is a good idea? Why not? I think that every country should be able to organize tournaments like this. Of course, now it is a big business and everybody thinks about money but Qatar is okay for me. Interesting place which I want to visit in the near feature.
I remember about European Championship which was organized by Poland and Ukraine. In my opinion it was very good because thanks for that we have a lot of new streets whose was created for that event.
I think organizing the world championships in Qatar is a good idea. It's not a poor country. It can definitely afford to organize the championships.
I think it's too big event to organize it in Poland. There are much more important things that we should spend money on.
2. It’s a lucrative business and a prestigious event and since FIFA has an absolute monopoly on this kind of events they are going to play out regardless of public opinion. Unless there is strong political conflict between major powers and hosting country.
3. Not really I don’t think that Poland at it’s current level has a economic capacity to gain anything from hosting such an event.
I'm totally not into sport so I'm not watching championships.
I don't know if it's good or bad idea but in my opinion Qatar will raise the challenge.
Organizing championships is a very good advertisment for country, bigger profits for local restaurants, hotels, gift shops ietc.
As I recall, We had a Euro Championships in 2012, as I said I am not into sport but it was great experience.
I have no opinion about next World Cup in Qatar. I know that there was many negative opinions abut this, but honestly I wasn't interested in this at all.
Similar tournament took place in Poland 6 years ago. It was a great challange for our country to meet all restrictions that had to be made and I think that this ended up with many positive aspects.
I'm not a big fan of football matches so i'm not that interested .
2. What do you think about these games? Do you think that the next championship in Qatar in 2022 is a good idea?
I have no idead because I don't know if its good or bad . why would it be a bad thing tho ?
3. Would you like the championships to be organized in your country someday? Or maybe it has already happed ?
It already happened I think in 2012 if I remember well and it was a biiiiig event.
I see enormous interest among my friends about current championships, so I believe doing next in Qatar is not something wrong.
Why not! It is a good time for my friends and Poland economic to host such event. We would even get some donations from other countries to help us prepare for such massive event.
