I feel lucky because I got to watch the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. In 2022, Qatar hosted the best World Cup tournament in history. Those who say they didn't enjoy the World Cup in Qatar, then they dislike Qatar, not the beauty of football. Many people have spread various misinformation about this Middle Eastern country that how the World Cup will be hosted in a desert country but Qatar has taken all the channels and organized the World Cup in the most modern way in the world. Qatar has done more than what was required to host a World Cup tournament. I don't think any country will host the World Cup in the future like Qatar did in the 2022 World Cup.

Well.. this is strange. What sort of misinformation was spread about the tournament in Qatar? The concern from the fans was regarding the following topics:

1. 6,000 migrant workers died during the construction of stadiums and other infrastructural facilities and Qataris never bothered to compensate their families
First of all, those who lost their lives to build these big structures, may God grant their families the ability to cope with their grief. But this is not the first time that workers have died in the construction of such a large structure in Qatar. Starting from Burj Khalifa, many people have lost their lives in other large buildings, so Burj Khalifa is closed? A group of people spread such news to stop the World Cup in Qatar.
2. LGBT and unmarried couples were threatened with adultery laws
3. Hotel prices were spiked just before the tournament
4. Beer ban was announced just two days before the first game was played
5. Women fans were asked to wear covering attire

Which of these points look like misinformation for you?

Qatar is a Muslim country and they clearly stated that they cannot change their Muslim culture for this one month tournament. So in their country, drinking beer in the studio or homosexuality, like the European countries, they also put some restrictions on girls' clothing so that they can retain their Muslim culture. I don't see anything wrong with what they have done as a Muslim dominated country. How they will change their culture for one month which they have been following since ancient times.
