If Qatar gets it, among many other factors, FIFA would be putting at risk the players’ and fans’ health!
You can air-condition stadiums and fan zones but you can't air-condition the entire country.
What to do in Qatar in the summer, if not inside an air-conditioned bubble?!
No fan wants to be restricted to “fan zones” and air conditioned areas, when they travel to a country, besides attending the games, they also want to visit vibrant and interesting sites of those countries.
