    South Korea was the other (I think better) option.

    Qatar got this because Saudi wants it in 2027 so they did a little behind the scenes "scratch my back, I scratch yours" type deal.

      It's crazy how much lobbying and "persuasion" is used for event hosting, especially in FIFA
      reminds me of how popes are chosen within the vatican

        I definetly like our chances of winning the tournament more by playing in Qatar than Korea.

          I preferred summer AC in korea. First of all, new environment. I remember how great the vibe in australia was, I feel like we play over half our games in qatar. Koreans would attend the games a lot and create good atmosphere.

          Second, it would be quickly after WC which could keep our momentum going. In the summer, we would not deal with having to rip legionarres away from their respective leagues either, and in general more eyes would be on the tournament than if it is going on simultaneous to the rest of the footballing worlds activities.

            That’s some b$ Right there ! 😒😠
            Didn’t gutteries just host the last AC & now WC & another freaking AC..!! :/

            Why did the Chinese punked out anyhow ..!? Covid?

            Why not SK.!?
            I suppose SK woulda made for a tougher hosting environment for us to succeed or for better viewership timings out west ..!

            On paper it should be our or japans cup to loose ..!? But in tourneys as such u also need a bit of luck & refereeing favors in order to carry you to the title, especially so past the groups stage.!

            We are way freaking past due for an Asian accolades ..!

              So dumb. Having everything in Qatar feels stale at this point

                  I honestly would've preferred Saudi over Qatar at this point.. It's boring having every tournament in Qatar.
