Qatar is currently making a pretty significant push to host the World Cup in 2022. The organizing committee recently unveiled a video showcasing its proposed plans to build five (5) world-class stadiums to host the world's greatest tournament. The five (5) proposed venues would be named Al-Wakrah, Al-Shamal, Al-Gharafa, Al-Khor, and Al-Rayyan.
Check out the video below - a very unique and interesting look at how countries are positioning themselves to host a tournament 12 years away!
To launch their bid, Qatar featured a pretty amazing booth display at Soccerex to demonstrate their commitment to bringing the World Cup to their country for the first time!

Hi Brian,
Great article. I have not seen the stadiums videos yet. They are absolutely mindblowing! It ties back to our discussion about football in the UAE.
