The Soccer World Cup by Ellen Martinsson
Usually the World Cup is in the summer, but because of the warm weather in Qatar they moved it to the winter instead. On November 21, 2022 the first soccer games will take place. The groups are drawn and the game schedule has been made.The cup is held in Qatar between November 21 and December 18.
The World Cup is held in 5 different cities; the capital, Doha, will be the center of the tournament, where 4 arenas will be used. This is the first time the Soccer World Cup is being held in the Middle East. In total, 8 arenas will be used.
Qatar’s timezone is 7 hours before Michigan’s. The games will be played from lunch to late night in Qatar.
The weather in Qatar will make it hard for the players. Right now the weather in Qatar is 70 degrees fahrenheit at the lowest at night, and 90 degrees during the day. In December, the weather is going to be really warm as well; between 70 and 84 is the guess. Imagine playing a soccer game in that heat. Exhausting.
The final is being played on December 18. If the U.S goes to the final, everyone should watch it. Even if you don't like soccer that much, watching it and supporting your country is important. Most likely, the U.S won’t go to the final, and then you don’t have to watch it if you don't want to. But if they make it, they need all the support they can get to win that last important game.
