It will be interesting to play in a country where the forecast for today was a high of 106 and low of 91. World Cup in 2022 could become a game of three halves in the 40 degree heat of Qatar By Luke Edwards Having decided to play the tournament in the middle of summer in a country where temperatures regularly exceed 40C, Fifa have been wrestling with the problem of how the world's best players are going to cope with the conditions. Air conditioned, indoor stadiums will help, but even that might not be enough to keep them at a safe temperature according to Michael Beavon, a director of Arup Associates, the company responsible for developing the zero-carbon solar technology intended to cool them. As a result, one proposal being considered by Fifa is to play the 90 minute games over three 30-minute periods if the temperature inside the stadiums exceeds 30c because of the potential health risks involved. "There is a moderate risk of heat injury to the players between 24C-29C but if you go above that you have high and extreme risk of injury, " said Beavon, who was speaking to delegates at the Qatar Infrastructure Conference in London. "The one thing Fifa do say, although it is for guidance, is if it's 32C they will stop a match and play three 30-minute thirds rather than two 45-minute halves. |

Wow, that is a colossally stupid idea. Here's an idea, host the Cup in a country that gives 2 shits about soccer. |

Or they could do the right thing and nulify the bid based on all the bribes used to secure it and then go ahead and give the tourny to a country more deserving, like Chicago. |
