The Qatar World Cup officially opened last night! As a quadrennial sporting event, countless fans and pseudo-fans will party all night long, cheering for their picks.
But many students don't know much about this Qatar World Cup! I only know that Qatar is rich, the Chinese team did not go, and Messi Ronaldo is so handsome [surprise] is obviously not conducive to everyone's integration into the atmosphere of watching the game.
So today, I will share with you the 33 knowledge points of this World Cup, after learning, you may not be able to understand the ball [dog head], but you must understand the Qatar World Cup!
I. Qatar
1. Where is Qatar?
Qatar belongs to the Middle East, located on the Qatar Peninsula on the southwestern coast of the Persian Gulf. The entire land area is 11,521 km², almost two-thirds of Beijing; The total population is only 265W, equivalent to 12% of Beijing's permanent population, and it is estimated that there is no morning and evening rush hour when taking the subway.
Qatar is in the third eastern zone and Beijing is in the eighth eastern zone, with a difference of 5 hours. For example, tomorrow at 6 pm we will see Argentina vs Saudi Arabia match, Messi actually started at 1 o'clock local time, there is no time to take a nap, distressed.
2. How rich is Qatar
In 2021, Qatar's per capita GDP exceeded 6w US dollars, which is very rich. According to rumors, local tycoons once said that they only work 3 hours a day! If you work until 2 p.m., it is considered overtime, and you are really pragmatic [thinking]
In order to host this World Cup, Qatar threw more than $220 billion! 8 gymnasiums were built and renovated, 3 subways were built, airports, ports, etc. were also renovated, and even a new city of Lucel was directly built in the desert! What a love for the World Cup! [Dog Head]
3, Qatar and 2 indissoluble bond
Qatar spent $220 billion to host the World Cup; The World Cup officially opened in 2022; Qatar lost 2-0 to Ecuador last night; The three words "Qatar" are also exactly 22 paintings! Qatar, a little 2 on the body.
4. Although it has set a record for the host to lose in the first game, Qatar is not so dish, at least it is the champion of the 2019 Asian Cup!
5. The Qatari team name is abbreviated as CAT, which is very cute
In addition, CAT is also the abbreviation of catalyst, which is quite in line with the temperament of their petrochemical country, very academic.
6. Qatar is visa-free for China, which is very convenient! It's a bit expensive.
2. Basic knowledge of the World Cup
7. The official theme song of this World Cup is "HayyaHayya"! The "WakaWaka" you sing every day is already the theme song of more than ten years ago, so pay attention to distinguishing it.
And the most out-of-the-loop goo goo tuck belly of this World Cup is actually the theme song of the fans, called Tukoh Taka. I haven't found out what the name of this song means, but the song is very good, there is a feeling of bubbling in the brain, I don't believe you listened:
Tukoh Taka Audio: 00:0000:30
8. The total prize money of this World Cup reached 440 million US dollars, the most ever! Among them, the champion prize is 42 million US dollars, the runner-up is 30 million, and the third runner-up is 27 million.
Even if you are eliminated in the group stage, you can get $9 million, and you will get money to reach the World Cup! The national football team has lost money this time!
9. However, how much money falls to the team members depends on the distribution of national football associations. The standards are different from country to country! I have counted the bonus mechanism of some participating teams, and students who want to play in the World Cup can refer to this welfare standard [dog head]
There are many opinions on the specific bonus online, and the picture above is the data I refer to https://www.totalsportal.com
The real prize money is subject to the actual payment of the athlete
10. This World Cup is the first time that it is held in the winter of the Northern Hemisphere. Before the World Cup, it was basically June and July, but Qatar is hot at 40 or 50 °C in the summer, and players may be honored on the spot after a few laps...
Even now, the local temperature is 20~30°C, so the organizers are very proud to install air conditioners everywhere. The air conditioning was so powerful that seven Spanish players had already caught a cold. Qatar is honest, there is air conditioning he is really on!
11. The mascot of this World Cup is called Raib, which translates to Chinese probably called "good player". It looks a bit like wonton skin, and it also looks a little like a Qatari prince, which is quite cute.
3. Participating teams
12. There are 32 teams participating in the World Cup finals, but all of them are national teams. There is no Barca, Real Madrid, Manchester United, Paris, because that's all clubs.
13. Only 8 countries have won the World Cup. They are Brazil, Germany, Italy, Argentina, France, Spain, Uruguay and England. Among them, there is no Chinese team.
14. Unfortunately, neither the Italian team nor the Chinese team were able to qualify. Recently, the president of FIFA said in an interview: I hope that the Italian team and the Chinese team can enter the next time. The two teams are really Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Hatchlings, and they are equal!
15. The teams in the finals of the next World Cup will be expanded! From 32 to 48, there will be 8.5 places in the Asian division! Asian countries' chances of qualifying have increased dramatically!
16. But the Chinese team is currently ranked 11th in Asia.
17. Throughout the history of the World Cup, South Korea and Portugal have feuds. In the 02 Korea-Japan World Cup, the two teams clashed continuously, Portugal was sent off by two, and the second red card was quite controversial. In the end, Portugal played 11 people in the South Korean team and did not play, and the golden generation led by Figo was directly eliminated. This beam is knotted...
The Portuguese player was sent off with a red card
18. Uruguay and Ghana have feuds. In the 10-year South Africa World Cup 1/4 final, at the end of extra time, Ghana's mandatory goal was blocked by Uruguay's Suarez with both hands, and the referee awarded a penalty. As a result, Garner missed the penalty and missed the kill. Dragged to the penalty shootout, Uruguay won the point, the Ghanaian mentality collapsed, and this beam was also knotted...
The Ghanaians looked at it with hatred and itched their teeth
19. Iran and the United States have grievances. Look specifically at the CCTV7 military channel to know how this beam is formed...
20. And this World Cup, these teams all collided! A gentleman takes revenge, twenty years is not too late. All the revenge dramas you want to see! It has to be said that Qatar understands drama conflict. Let's draw the key points for everyone:
4. Players
21. Famous stars David Beckham, Kaka, Zinedine Zidane have all heard of it, right? All decommissioned.
But Messi and Ronaldo
Still kicking! People who don't understand ball want to say double kitchen ecstasy [surprise]
Hope to see the two clash at the World Cup!
22, Jordan, James, Yao Ming either, that's the NBA, here is the World Cup.
23. This World Cup is known as Ragnarok because it is the last World Cup for many famous stars.
For example, Messi, the first of the peerless double prides, is 35 years old, the other is 37 years old, and Modric, who broke the monopoly of the Double Pride Golden Globe, is 37 years old this year. Noier, the first goalkeeper from Germany, Pepe 39, Pepe, the "Suya", from Uruguay...
Think of how many laps you can run on the football field at 35
24. There are some more handsome people this time
of players, please stay tuned [doghead]
Just a small part, welcome to say who is the most handsome in your heart
25、
But most people may still be most concerned about Messi and Ronaldo [dog head]
At present, Messi is in good shape, and the Argentinian also has high hopes. In a game before the World Cup, Messi crouched down, looked like he fell to the ground injured, and the fans were worried to death! Then it turned out that he was just tying his shoelaces.
The current match time of the Argentine team has these, to draw a key point for everyone, don't miss it if you want to see Messi!
26. Ronaldo was also not calm before the World Cup and was fighting with the club he worked for. At present, it is to put aside the dispute and play football first. The current match time of the Portuguese team has these, to draw a key point for everyone, don't miss it if you want to see Cristiano Ronaldo!
5. Chinese elements
For a global event like the World Cup, of course, we are indispensable to China's participation! China did not go except for the Chinese team, all the others went [dog head]
27. The infrastructure team went
Want to play football without a court? Made in China! Want to generate electricity without a power station? Made in China! Need a cistern to drink? Made in China! Too many fans and no place to live? Made in China! You run your World Cup, I do my big infrastructure, let me come
28. The atmosphere group went
Large pieces are made as well as small pieces. Yiwu's small commodity market, which can predict the US presidential election, also participated strongly in this World Cup. From jersey whistles to football Hercules Cup
Yiwu boss: In the do, in the doing
29. Sponsorship all went
Chinese sponsors are also overwhelming in the World Cup, or clear Chinese. One wonders if this advertisement is just for me? Or do people from other countries also have it?
Yours truly, Hisense
30. The referee team went
The team didn't go, but the referee went. 3 Chinese referees - international referee Ma Ning, international assistant referee Cao Yi and Shi Xiang, came to the World Cup to award [dog head]
From right to left: Ma Ning, Cao Yi, Shi Xiang
31. The giant panda went
As national treasures, the giant pandas "Four Seas" and "Jingjing" arrived in Qatar before the World Cup and stayed at the luxurious Hall Panda House in the Qatari capital. It is said that because the giant pandas only understand Sichuanese, Qatari breeders are trying to learn Sichuanese
32. The backpack issued by China at the Olympics went again
The media bag of the 2008 Beijing Olympics reappeared in Qatar, making people can't help but sing, your backpack, the back is not rotten until now
There are also many Chinese fans like Brother Refund to watch the World Cup, ready to ask for money refund [dog head] I don't know when I can see the Chinese team go once!
This World Cup starts on November 20th and ends on December 18th, once every four years, playing for one month in a row, and there are many things to see. Everyone who knows the ball will watch the ball, and those who don't understand the ball will have a good time. Welcome to boldly predict this year's champion in the message area, we will see you in a month! [Think]
