the in the world corrupted. you need to this end. ah, so join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah ah football in the middle east. ever since the tiny gold nation wanted the right to house, the people world cup it football, national team been done as a dark horse or a campbell, if you will. one of the persian gulf wealthiest country as has spend billions of dollars unstated with the ard stadiums. but is it really possible to play football when it's 30 degrees celsius outside? well, i mean i can feel it. yeah. what the temperature temperature 19. why has guitar build a stadium out of shipping containers like a stadium kit?

you can carry it around the world. whenever you're finished. with the visiting fans suffer from culture shock when they arrive in a muslim country. certain areas will have. you won't be able to walk the streets and drink in youth, especially if you've never tried alcohol in your life. no, i haven't. to tarry football is making a huge, thrice with a little help from coffee. european professionals, of course, did money play any role in your decision to move here. the to is it into, to me is not the 1st and there with, for me to go to the, our local player is up to the job of giving top football nations that get run for their money. several years we've been following katara and in preparation for the world's main football tournament. and while making this film were visited the country twice in 2019 and in 2021. so what should we expect from the very 1st people world cup in the middle east?

the me the robin does it get done where the temperature can pick at 45 in 50 degrees celsius. skeptics have said this is an unsuitable setting for a major football tournament. about the tiny gulf nation lacks football tradition. maybe it's time to find out more about the ho station and it's a business plan to stage. the best football tournaments come what may. but 1st, we need to cool off before the scorching sun kills us. from day 11 of the biggest concerns about guitar hosting, the world cup was whether it's so hot here in the summer there is absolutely no way you can stay outside, let alone play football due to this,

the tournament was rescheduled to winter for the 1st time ever it will be held in november, december 2020 to what you have to keep in mind that even if the weather is okay for spectators, it can still be challenged for the players who have to keep running back and forth throughout the game at top speed and it's a well known fact that football players can perform at peak levels. if it's too hot, it's just simple biology. so the major concern right now is that guitar climate is gonna kill the show. and that's why engineers came to the stadiums here to assure that this won't happen. ah, do you know what they call you in the media? no, you tell me, dr. cool. do you like that? i like it. i don't like it. so the portrait, you must have mind behind all these sophisticated cooling system in i don't like it

because it's a group effort. it's a team effort. there's not only my, my, my has the stadium looks a lot like those built in europe and america. but there is something different about it too. if you take a closer look, you'll see vents beneath each seat that blow cold air into the stance. basically this is an individual ac system that every spectator can enjoy similar nozzles, but bigger. it will be installed along the pitch and directed at the players. well, i mean, i can feel it. yeah. what's the temperature? i mean today because it's modulator, we have control system temperature 19. and it's a completely objective device, right? yeah, yes and, and if you go where people playing, it's close to the van. but what you go in the middle of the page. never because we didn't put the whole stadium on for you. we put only only the sector, but we have, we had met with law is 90 degrees celsius during a game. yes,

i can make even lower. ah, even building just one stadium will cost you a pretty penny to house the world cop to dar had to build $87.00 of which had to be built from scratch. and all of these stadiums had to be with, with expensive air conditioning systems. and that's not to mention all the cost for infrastructure road interchanges, hotels, and even a new state of the art subway system would tunnel is running right under the san ah. so we have done a trade metro frame to see what the city public transport is like. the network has 3 lines, 37 stations and is 76 kilometers long. you would expect that this is the place where the train driver would sit by all the trains and computerized me the

the guitars world cub could be the most expensive ever. but for what it's worth, this country doesn't seem to see that as a problem. because guitar has the world's 3rd largest gas reserves, this tiny middle eastern state is deemed the wealthiest country on the planet by per capita income. you are lucky enough to be born here, like a leaf al, how rude. you will most likely never be me. i've read all your instagram that you'll be shirt in top 30 most influential people. so yeah, i mean, it was really an honor to be to be featured and listed. but of course, everything that we do isn't so that we get listed somewhere ah, leaf is an enter printer and a local instagram celebrity. he's 37, he's estimated. net worth is $1000000.00. and he was kind enough to give us a ride in his white lexus. this ass tv seems to be the most popular car in guitar.

ah, how much time it will take to get from one end of the country to another to drive this into a question. i've never tried doing that, but i imagine just a few hours you can do. you can definitely do that ah, are driving to around doha capital. and actually the only large seating the kingdom takes 30 minutes tops and other distinctive feature of the upcoming world campaign news is compactness. it will take less than an hour to travel to any stadium in to tar. well, that is if you don't fancy making stops to just marbella, the cities landmarks is. we did a very fencing area. right? yes. i mean, if you want to be seen somewhere, you want to be seen, you know, yeah, a lot of fancy cars. i mean this is now the image of the tar that people have in

mind. right. very rich nation, lot of fancy, expensive restaurants, not a very wealthy people. just like what countries in the worlds you're going to find beautiful, exotic, super cars. and you're gonna find, you know, the average normal car, right? or what i can tell you is that the country has definitely prioritize people. and so that means that, you know, providing us, you know, with education encouraging, you know, the use to take higher education as well so that they can get, you know, the best possible job opportunities. and i think that's what i would love more people, you know, to know. i mean, you can have a rich country, but if the country's putting all of that richness just in its pocket, then there is, there is no benefit for the people, right? that's true when it comes to its people could tar spurs, no expenses, but in the country with a population of just 2800000, only about 350000 are considered citizens. the rest were talking 87 percent of the population. our labor migrants and many of them work at the world comp construction

site. almost from day one of the preparations for the tournament. western media and human rights activists have come down on pets. heart criticize the need for the reportedly deplorable conditions for workers to living. just like russia before, the 2014 olympics and so she guitar has been subjected to constant media pressure from the west. every nation, when the whole story has to look at this criticism and realize what is true, what is constructive, what can i take to improve myself and what is coming out of my motivations today there's a significant improvement and development on labor reform. we're very proud of the work that we've done. there's still a lot more work to be done. and we're still engaged with the critics that we believe. have genuine interest for development and improvement on board christ donald to want to use the secretary general of the supreme committee for hosting the world cup and guitar. and he's one of the most influential people. inca tardy. football guitar has invested heavily in putting this new state of the rad stadiums,

and we've been to one this morning. so how would they be used when the fans and players have all gone? i mean, after all, you just don't have enough population to fill them. so all are stadiums have margin receipts that will reduce the capacity after the tournament. the capacity of the stadium will go down. so 440000 cedar stadium, some of the state has become 415000 seat stadiums that will fulfill the need of our local needs. and one particular stadium. it's been inspired by shipping containers after the tournament. you're disassemble the entire stadium. ah, me, you heard him right for the 1st time in world cup, hey street, the stadium will be billed from shipping containers and what's more, it will be completely dismantled after the tournament. ah, ah, wow. look at this. i mean, the stadium is really taking shape. you can see the bowl and most of the stands now,

when we were here a little bit over a year ago, at the same construction site, it was just the foundation and a few metal structures. so it seems that time wise, this idea to use shipping containers, this building block has definitely paid off. i mean, they're easy to assemble and easy to dismantle, just like playing with lego. mm. this part of the container is use of the thought it says use as he gets called and said minority loc, minnesota, before the stadium slowed bearing structures, are made of metal for strength. but all the facilities inside from public restrooms to locker rooms have basically been carved inside the containers. we have the flexibility in rebuilding the whole thing as opposed to a different location even and go home on the country like

a stadium kid. you can carry it around the world whenever you're finished. take it with you and then build another one, a different place. it's in, it's in the cars. so many specialists from russia have been involved in building this particular stadium. and then the preparation for the tournament in general. after all, they gained considerable experience during the 2018 world cup show carpet ocean floors. and i didn't know why he was near shame senior your wishes show mister duties to me. jan at the mirror would wish me to do her through. would you to do this with the new carpet or even that you specifically say well, no. going to just go into a go for it. i bought the, which is a parson. and up the steve seen the debris a just keep worth mitchell in your stomach.

receiving an entire army and visiting football fans is also going to be challenged . culturally speaking. guitar is a muslim country, but its own laws and customs, many of which made the 1st from what fans are used to at home. we came to dough high and 2019 when the city was hosting the club world cup final. it was interesting to see how locals got along with the foreigners there, having from so many so, so much different social and cultural background. doesn't that going to make you uncomfortable known. i mean, no way on the brazilian women and how they, you know, dressed up in the, just what you have in the division of it. so okay, that's okay. the way we can really get out is awesome. but the people visiting guitar will also have to adjust to cultural differences just as the locals will hi. about the time is better to reach somebody so know that don't have

places to hook them out. yeah. yeah. so, so what do you do? i mean, you go to the hotel or guitar is normally dry country where alcohol is prohibited. as a rule you can procure alcoholic beverages here. it's tablet if you expensive hotels that mostly cater to foreigners. but the authority that go into relax restrictions for the world cup. yes, alcohol will be available. it won't be available on public because our call is not part of our culture. hospitality is part of our culture. so we will do is we'll offer it in certain places, certain fans don't have alcohol, certain certain areas will have an alcohol. you won't be able to walk the streets and drink me. but because she's the only one with a grown running, the able to music would be much more like the pricing for

the new fun out of the loop. just because he's reaching the committee. because those are the other guitars ready to go to great lengths to make visiting his fans. feel at home that they ought not forget that in the end there are still gas. the one of the worst ever mass shootings in america was in las vegas in 2017. the tragedy a close a little of the real last vegas. where many say elected officials are controlled by christina learners. the vegas shooting revealed what the l v m p. d really is and now it's part of the stand machine to the american public barely remembers that it happens. that just shows you the power of money in las vegas. the powerful showed that colors when the pandemic had the most contagious contagion that we've

seen in decades. and then you have a mayor who doesn't care to. here's caroline goodman, offering the lives of the vegas residence. to be the control group to the shiny facades conceal of deep indifference to the people vice gonna say that they would take an action. absolutely keep the registering and keep the slot machines doing. this is a money machine is a huge cash register that is ran by people who don't care about people's lives being lost. ah, ah.

as a career professional spot is much tougher on some than others. year old myers by everybody. so why would somebody believe me? i was just a little girl. the price paid to to, to achieve really was, was i read in the paper this morning, usa swimming coach, arrested, allegedly had sex with a 12 year old girls. this happens almost every week. we get calls at the office. i get informed about one of my greatest fears is someone's going to start linking all this together. there's going to be a 60 minute documentary about youth coaches in sports like gymnastics swimming. is that documentary? see it on our t hope that people are coming to the world cup for the world cup and not because of the drink in personally you've never tried all in your life

. no, i haven't. i think actually when i went to the u. k. i somebody tried almost gave me something and when i smelled it, i was like wait this no weird to me. if i don't to be on it, it's not like fire. you know like why, why would anyone want to drink liquid fire? the guitar tournament will be the 1st in world cup history to be staged in the middle east. but unlike say, europe or south america, this part of the world hasn't been associated with the game of football until very recently. before football came into the picture, this was guitars for number one and nation's only passion campbell racing. this place by the way, it's cold l. sheehan. nia. and it's one of the most famous camel tracks in the whole of the middle east at stop like the equivalent of con, or wembley among football venues. and this is indeed a international tournament. we have teams from saudi arabia. we have teams from could tar to buy abu dhabi,

so the cream of the crop they used to have children as jockeys because of their weight and size, but then it was spend, and so they switched to this robot shock is right here. so they put the one on top of a capital and then they use a remote control to turn on this automatic with right here. so while actually, i think that football coaches could use the technology on lazy football players the locals. this is not just the traditional pastime, it's an industry with a huge amount of money to be made for racing camel can fetch from $50000.00 to $1000000.00. and the prize money for winning a tournament could make someone wealthy overnight unless they are already wealthy. of course, which is bigger, entire camel racing for football.

it's a tough one. i think with the 2nd come the football has recently begun to attract way more attention and guitar. the country doesn't just want to do with decent job hosting the world cup. they want to make sure they're a national teams. performance is also up to the mark ever since the tiny gold nation. one, the right to house, the people world cup it's national team been dumped as a dark horse or a capitol if you will, as a whole country guitar will play the final phase of paternity anyway. but whether it's going to be able to put up a fight against the big football nation from european south america. that's the main question. everyone's mind.

shake to me him, his guitar supreme ruler. his portrait can be seen everywhere around these parts from skyscrapers to cars. and he has already made it clear that he expects the national team to qualify for the play off at the very least for a nation that has never even qualified for the world cup before. that's quite an ambitious goal. but are the players up to the challenge? but yeah. ready? yes. ah, ah, there was a good jump. up until recently the hard eunice was one of the goalkeeper spoke a tars national football team, but he lost his place in the squad, due to injury. and now he plays only for a local club, our yon, in almost every good hurry club. you have borders on key positions.

so they are, they are very influential in terms of the game, in terms of coaching and cetera. so doesn't bother you, that boring or not could tarry. players and coaches are setting the tone in contrary football at the moment, as i said, the piano the best at football now. so when they come and play with us, our coach us, i think they give us the information we need. we learn from them. do you believe that guitar, you national team has a chance at the upcoming world cup? yes, i believe so. they think you, your team will qualify from the group. yeah, i hope sunday i think so. we can do it. that would be a huge, huge knees. do this. if you pull this up. i think, you know, i've been even my team that we can do the word of practice of calorie. ok. it's one of the 2 leading guitar

e football clubs and it even has a member of the royal family as a chairman. so that gives you some context. our, our yard is now coach bio, ron blonde, a former french defender, who played alongside and don, and even want the 1998 world cup. what he is not the only big name in category football these days choppy adverse to lone star is now coaching our yard arch, rival l sod. so all of these is a part of a bigger strategy to quickly elevate the level off because hurry football with the help of skills and very expensive specialist did money play any role in your decision to move here because, you know, everyone knows how generous the to is you to, to, i want to know when i, when i am piano. so is not the, the 1st interest for me to go to look at how big big gap this between european and

guitar. he football right now, in your opinion, we have the, the stadium, the district, juries of unbelievable the structure of the stage and we have web depletion. we have the organization of the walk of 2022, but not enough is not enough. i think the most important to younger, please do you get to repeat what it's enormous financial resources guitar probably didn't have to go through all this trouble. they could have promised huge payouts to highly skilled athletes to encourage them to switch nationalities and play for their national team. that's actually fairly common in sports, particularly football, but guitar has chosen another path in 2009 team guitar one. the asian got the major football tournament on the continent, even be japan in the final rate one which raised a lot of eyebrows. this is so far the greatest sporting achievement in the country's history. now not many people know though that 70 percent of that victoria

squad were graduates of a fire academy, a state of the art sporting school in doha, even the wealthiest european clubs my enemy infrastructure like this bad space containing top notch football pitches. some of the bad coaches and doctors from all over the world have come here to work. the facilities also boast venue is for table, tennis fencing and track and field, and that's not all good part. kids can benefit from the latest development in sports science. this is called a foot betron parish. adornment owns one of these machines and the expiry can me owns another. so the ball will come from from over there. i stop it. and then the machine, the, all the measure lane count, the percentage of heads, the time it takes because it's for me not to take too much time to control the ball

. i need to be fast. i need to be precise. that's one of the machine trains. all players were given a tour of the academy by marcus agger from austria. he's the man behind all the recent success of to read both sports franchises from formula one to football. as we're walking around, we witness a scene that perfectly demonstrates the academy and could tar is approach to sports in general, every injured team, each player here has a personal physical therapist to monitor their rehabilitation. being in a small country with a small talent pool, we have to focus on our attention on those talent that we have. and we cannot afford losing anyone because this is don't like it for a big football club where you have yeah. losing the left back of the on the 17 and that are out of madrid. you know that there are 200 of our guys. yeah. i'm waiting

for their chance. we don't have at least 13 it's bar academy alumni have a chance to make a tours national team for the 2022 world cup. and again, football is not the only support that gets attention at the academy. we have what i would call a constant pipeline of strong in the video. and that is in athletics, in fencing in table tennis in swimming squash. and now recently were started with motor sports with bike racing. i think in terms of single biggest achievement or even be biggest athletes, one can all devoid mentioning will to us by the shim, who is there are still many people who believe that he will be the one, maybe a one they are breaking, the very old will record of 2 mentors. 45 in the high jump.

ah, of course there are countries that would make the job of housing. the world cup look much easier, but easier doesn't always mean battery guitars. climate is extremely dry. so almost nothing grows here for a long time. the country imported fresh fruit and vegetables from the neighboring countries, just because it was easier. but then could tars relations with its neighbors, deteriorated and guitar had to develop its own agriculture. it was difficult to learn how to grow 1st rate tomatoes in the desert. but now the country doesn't have to depend on anyone hosting it football tournament of this scale seen a huge challenge and guitar has yet to show the entire world what they have achieved. but even at this stage, it's fair to say that when you put a lot of effort into something, when you don't skimp on the smaller details instead truly ambitious goals. this

approach will bear fruit ah ah ah, ah, i think most likely is that we will find the equipment floating for space that was sent by an advantage to be late. the experience would be similar to walking on the beach. most of the time use the rocks or the shows that were produced naturally, but every now and then you encounter a plastic bottle and that gives you an important message. even if it's not functional, he says that the realization is out there. ah,

the, the news the big news stories the week from us g 7 leaders group a global infrastructure plan to compete with chinese belton road initiative as the 1st in person summit. since the pandemic controls were close this weekend in england. the may, due to the french president, getting a slap in the face will try to get a close and personal crowd proposed supporters in the south of france. and after recent blocking and jerry story too, but twitter crying foul and cooling and open and free internet, a basic human right at the same time as the social media platform steadily.
