In terms of infrastructure and facilities, you maybe right. They were top class. What I don't like about Qatar 2022 is the fact that despite spending $250 billion on conducting the tournament, Qatar never compensated the families of 6,000 or so migrant workers who died during the construction of world cup stadiums. FIFA also went silent on this matter. And the fans were not happy about a lot of things. Although visa was not an issue, there was discrimination against LGBT people and unmarried couples, and then there was this last minute ban on alcoholic drinks including beer.

The 2022 World Cup in Qatar was fraught with tension. There were various limits and poor displays that did not match the expectations of those who traveled to see the competition live. The prohibition on alcoholic beverages was excessive; how can a country prohibit drinks, including beer, simply because they do not fit their tradition and practice? It is preposterous to witness a celebration without smoking and gushing drinks; that is the way of modern celebration, and everyone is acquainted with it. Finally, the deaths of migrant laborers were merely a disregarded problem by FIFA and Qater; they are simply concerned with the competition, which they view as more important than any other matter.
