The 2022 Qatar （卡塔尔） World Cup is held in November and December. It is the first time FIFA has moved the World Cup from its traditional （传统的） summer to winter. It starts on November and lasts 28 days, half a week shorter than before.

FIFA's director of communications （新闻发言人） say, "This is important for us. December 18, 2022 is a Sunday, and its National Day in Qatar. It is a good day for Qatar. "

Many people don't want Qatar to hold the 2022 World Cup, because the summer temperature in Qatar is very high. Sometimes, the temperature may be about 50℃. So the country has an idea to move it to winter. At last, FIFA gives the chance to Qatar.

The change is good for the players, but there is still much opposition（反对）. The biggest opposition comes from the major European leagues （欧洲联赛）, because the new time is just Europe's club season. FIFA say they can try their best to make things go well.
