摘要

So numerous are the controversies surrounding Qatar's hosting of the World Cup in 2022 that there is a 3,000-word Wikipedia page dedicated to them. Since it was chosen in 2010, many have wondered how the tiny country with no football culture and a sweltering climate won the right to host the sport's most prestigious tournament.
