JAKARTA, lightning.com– World Cup 2022 kick-off soon. The tournament will be held every 4 years in Qatar, as well as being the first time to host a Muslim-dominated World Cup.
In the case of the world’s biggest international tournament, a number of countries whose majority of their citizens are Muslims are also ready to show off. What are these countries?
See the following reviews.
1.Qatar
In addition to hosting, this is the first edition of Qatar to appear in the World Cup. Qatar is in Group A with the Netherlands, Senegal and Ecuador.
2.Iran
The Qatar 2022 World Cup will be Iran’s sixth World Cup appearance. In the previous World Cup, Iran participated in the 1978, 1998, 2006 and 2014 editions of the World Cup. In the 2022 World Cup, Iran are in Group B with England, Wales and the United States.
3. Morocco
Morocco will participate in the World Cup for the fifth time. Morocco participated in the 1970, 1986, 1994, 1998 and 2018 World Cups. At the 2022 World Cup, Morocco joins Belgium, Croatia and Canada in Group F.
4. Saudi Arabia
Like Iran, this is Saudi Arabia’s sixth appearance at the World Cup. Saudi Arabia has already played in the 1994, 1998, 2002, 2006 and 2018 World Cups. In the 2002 edition of the Qatar World Cup, Saudi Arabia was in Group C with Argentina, Mexico and Poland.
5. Senegal
Senegal has only participated in the World Cup twice, in 2002 and 2018. However, in the 2002 edition of the World Cup, Senegal is a Muslim country that has gone the farthest, reaching the quarter-finals. At the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, which is the third time to feature, Senegal joined Group A along with Qatar, the Netherlands and Ecuador.
6. Tunisia
Tunisia will take part in the World Cup for the sixth time. Previously, Tunisia participated in the 1978, 1998, 2002, 2006 and 2018 World Cups. However, there is a FIFA plan to exclude Tunisia from the 2022 World Cup due to local government intervention with the Tunisian Football Federation (FTF). Whatever the plan, Tunisia are in Group D of the 2022 World Cup along with France, Australia and Denmark. And of course, the Tunisian people expect their country to participate in the Qatar 2022 World Cup later. (izzy)
