This upcoming winter, the World Cup will take place in Qatar. The decision to host the championship in this country has been criticized since the very beginning, and as the event approaches, the criticism is becoming louder. Dutch national team coach Louis van Gaal clearly stated his position against the upcoming friendly matches in Qatar, criticizing FIFA's decision to host the World Cup specifically in Qatar. "I have mentioned more than once that the decision to host the World Cup in Qatar is completely inadequate. FIFA says they want to develop football in this country. It is complete nonsense, because all that matters to this organization is money and extra advertising. Why do you think I am not part of any FIFA or UEFA committee? Because I constantly oppose such decisions. I will be able to repeat all of this during the World Cup in Qatar, but this problem will not be solved," - L. van Gaal said at a press conference.
