The FIFA World Cup 2022 will be held in Qatar and feature Spain and Germany’s defending champions. Qatar’s hosts were drawn against the Netherlands and Senegal in the group round held in Doha. Hosts Qatar will take on Ecuador in the opening game of the tournament at Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor on November 21 before coming up against African champions Senegal and the Orange in Group A.
World Cup 2022 tournament format
The 2022 World Cup tournament will follow along the lines of past editions with a 32-team group stage which whittles the field down to 16 teams — only the top two teams from each group will advance.
Those 16 survivors will then begin a single-game knockout competition. The winner moves on, the loser goes home. There must be a winner on the day for every match, and extra time and penalty kicks will be used, if necessary.
