Qatar and the 2022 World Cup

Sean Wheelock presents a special report from Doha, asking how Qatar won the right to host the World Cup and what we can expect from the tournament in 2022.

This week's programme is a special report from Doha investigating how Qatar won the right to host the 2022 World Cup - and asking what we can expect from the tournament.

We speak to Qatar 2022 ambassador Ronald de Boer and the bid's main strategist Mike Lee who both dismiss the recent bribery allegations.

The Executive Director of the failed US bid David Downs tells us that Qatar won because they were able to outspend their rivals during the bidding process.
