There won't be any soccer in 2022. It will be rollerball played by dissenters from the World Government. Deaths in sports will be common. Spectators will gamble for food credit to buy slurpees made from people.

Believe it or not, this gives Asia a SLIGHTLY better chance for 2022, though still not much as I think we'll see it in either Qatar or the US.

Believe it or not, this gives Asia a SLIGHTLY better chance for 2022, though still not much as I think we'll see it in either Qatar or the US.

Qatar IS an Asian country (or at least it is in the eyes of FIFA). And given there is now one less competitor, saying that the Asian countries have a better shot now is simply stating the obvious. Simple mathematics will tell you that. It's not exactly a "believe it or not"-worthy statement.
