Qatar National Day

The celebration of Qatar national day started in 2007. The events included fireworks, cultural programmes and re-enactments of historical events. This year 2010 was the first year for me to join the Qatari nation and celebrate this day. It was great every thing was perfect the fireworks, dancing fountain and the decorated cars. Yet, there were some accidents that really scare us. 

Happy National Day Qatar :)    

Barcelona sign a deal with Qatar Foundation

The Qatar Foundation  a non-profit organisation dependent on Qatar and dedicated to the educational and technological development of the country. "We are talking about a non-commercial organisation, a charity from a country that wants to make itself known through education and sport – one that, as you know, will host the 2022 World Cup," Faus said.

The deal reinforces Qatar's connections with the club. Barça's coach, Pep Guardiola, was an ambassador for Qatar's 2022 World Cup bid and Rosell also announced his support for the Qataris during a series of Aspire4Sport conferences coinciding with the Brazil v Argentina friendly international held in Doha last month. Negotiations, Faus said, had begun in August.

The question now is where the Qatar Foundation will appear. The club say the idea at first is to use the two sponsors together but, after this year, Unicef will not have preference; perhaps while Qatar appears on the shirt, Unicef will be on the shorts.

What was Fifa thinking ?

An inside story posted on youtube handled the story of Qatar 2022 bid, Qatar as nation that small country that a lot of people pick up the atlas to find where does this country located after the Fifa announced that Qatar will host the world cup 2022.

FIFA’s mission is to bring soccer to the world, especially those regions flush with fossil fuel wealth and conveniently lax ethical standards. Mired by multiple scandals, FIFA delegates voted to bring the game’s talents to Russia in 2018 and Qatar in 2022. The fishy choices resonate with the mantra that will be Sepp Blatter’s enduring legacy, “Straight Cash, Homie.”


Some people wondered if Qatar even have a team! will Yes, they do have a team.  Other talk about the heat is an issue and also if Qatar open country or Islamic, some are really worry about Alcoholic . The average temperature that time of year is 106 degrees, meaning it could get as high as 130 on the field. However, Qatar will be constructing all new stadiums for the event, with sophisticated air conditioning systems. The political situation in the Middle East will never be resolved without significant cultural exchange and dialogue. Hopefully, soccer can be a useful implement in that process.

Did Qatar have a chance to host World Cup 2022

When I chick the Fifa website I found that 11 country have made official bids to host the world cup in 2018 or 2022.

This country were Qatar, England, Russia, Australia, the USA, Japan, Mexico, Indonesia and joint bids from Portugal-Spain, Netherlands-Belgium and South Korea 

If we want to know what chances does these country have we should take a closer look to the selection process,

Applicants must next submit their bidding agreements by 11 December 2009, with Fifa’s 24-man executive committee choosing the winning candidates in December 2010.

Countries who fail to land the 2018 World Cup able to automatically be a candidate for the 2022 World Cup, provided that the 2018 host is not from the same continent as them.

Successful hosts must meet certain conditions if they are to win the right to stage the World Cup, providing at least 12 stadiums with minimum capacities of 40,000, with the final to be held in a stadium with a capacity of at least 80,000.

Fifa president Sepp Blatter said: “As long as we have single-country bids which provide all the necessary guarantees, we will reject co-hosting bids.”

With South Africa and Brazil to host the 2010 and 2014 competitions respectively, Fifa has said no African countries can bid for the 2018 showpiece while South America must wait until 2026 for the chance to bid again.

 However, if there is a good chance that the World Cup will come to the Middle East in the future, then Qatar have a better chance to has it.

Amazing Score of Barcelona 5 – 0

While being ready for their game with Real madrid,  Barcelona  shower Almeria with five goals.
In the duel continued Spanish Primera Liga on Saturday (20/11/2010), Barcelona was too strong for the host Almeria.

 With the standard quick game and at the touch, the power of Barca emerged since the early minutes of the game and they win the game easily. 

By this victory Barcelona  get more confident for their expected game with Real madrid, the classic game  in which all  football fans all over the world are waiting for.
