Generation 2022: Al-Kass Under-17 International Cup Scouting Report is a post from: Just Football

Always on the lookout for new talent here at Just Football, we sent our man in Qatar to check out the inaugural Al-Kass International Under-17 tournament. A warm welcome to Raphael Nawari, who reports on a competition full of promising youngsters:

In a small secluded part of the world, the new stars of tomorrow are taking part in a newly formed tournament, which in years to come will be considered as one of the better known youth tournaments, rivalling the Milk Cup and others where the likes of Wayne Rooney, Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi have graced us with their precocious talents.

With the increased globalization of the game, major tournaments are heading to new lands. Austria and Switzerland hosted Euro 2008, with next year's event heading to Poland and Ukraine. Last year South Africa staged the World Cup with Russia and Qatar on the horizon. While I'm all for spreading the game around the globe (aside for whatever shadiness helped Qatar land the 2022 World Cup), this trend presents a flaw with regards to tournament seeding.

Felizzzz Segunda-Feira! It's Match day today as Brazil prepare to take on Egypt tonight in Doha, Qatar! Aaah, Doha, we remember the PAIN you put us through with our luggage and your never-ending steps that needed climbing in the coldness of Doha Airport.

Stunnah! To me, it was shocking mostly because justice was served at a time that it seemed to have left the building. Even more than that, it was amazing theater because it had everything required. Marta ("The pantomime villain" according to Ian Darke), was the perfect foil, diving relentlessly, complaining with such vehemence that she earned a yellow and turning any nonpartisan fans against

Innovation – Not Soccer – Is Headlining FIFA World Cup 2022 Business 2 Community In what began as a vision in its bid to FIFA to host the 2022 World Cup , Qatar's promise of new cooling technologies, carbon-neutral facilities and man-made clouds is slowly becoming reality.

And some quick thoughts as we roll into our Spain and Gold Cup coverage:

Adu: A lifeline to chasing the dream...again.

• A small, abstract positive if Freddy Adu has a positive Gold Cup? Perhaps a little bit more showcasing for Adu to move to a better team more in the limelight or against better competition.

Soccer fans this weekend saw the best of the beautiful game pushed aside by the worst. As Barcelona were dismantling Manchester United with passing and play that was textbook in perfection, the drip-drip-drip of allegations coming out of FIFA's headquarters in Switzerland was deafening.

Not that it really counts as 'news', but the current furore over the fact that FIFA is rotten to the core and riddled with corruption shows no sign of abating any time soon as the panicking ExCo members now begin to turn in and feed on themselves amidst a veritable crossfire of spurious allegations, attention-deferring besmirchery and reams of claims and counter-claims pertaining to various acts of bribery, glad-handing and greed.

I know what you are thinking... "How could a country who's Primera A was ~$40mil in debt before the season started only to suddenly have investments of about that much by Qatar prior to the World Cup 2022 bid, which of course there is NO relation to *cough cough*, be a part of a corruption allegation?

We've made it to Thursday of the International Week, thank God. It's like the Bermuda Triangle when real football simply disappears. And we've already got some injuries and the matches have yet to be played.

DOHA, Qatar — Billed as a dress rehearsal for the World Cup, the 2011 Asian Cup was nothing of the sort. Qatar's win in the December vote for the 2022 World Cup hosting rights led to a storm of criticism, and put the spotlight on the Asian Cup like never before. The Gulf nation looked [...]

***Qatar unveils plans for "sustainable" World Cup 2022 stadiums. Today Qatar and German design firm AS&P revealed plans for three stadiums for the 2022 World Cup that are intended to be environmentally friendly. Paying for those stadiums will be countless barrels of oil which will be drilled from deep within the Earth, which will then be sold, transported on a oil-burning tanker, processed in a pollution spewing refinery, transported on diesel-burning trucks, and then resold to end-users for them to burn in their SUVs.

We are the champions!

Recently we've shared that various soccer luminaries such as Arsene Wenger and Sir Alex Ferguson has advocated a spring-to-fall schedule change in advance of the 2022 World Cup. Now we find out that UEFA itself is advancing well past the thinking stage.

The British press is reporting that the English Premier League and Bundesliga are gearing up to fight a UEFA (specifically, Michel Plantini) plan to implement a spring-to-fall schedule permanently for UEFA member leagues and alter the qualification calendar for international events.

We've got US camp stuff, as usual, but also quite a bit more.

And Sunday, I'll have another sitcom video Top 5'er.

DOHA, Qatar FIFA has announced that there are no plans to move the 2022 World Cup in Qatar to winter to alleviate concerns over the country's climate. As temperatures can reach 50 degrees Celsius in the summer in Qatar, there had been strong indications that FIFA was ready to move the tournament. President Sepp [.

Football, to those who choose to consume it, realise its importance within cultural proceedings. But to an outsider looking in, the game is considered a bullring containing a group of people over zealous with riches and addicted to their celebrity persona –to some, á la low culture.

Machinations at the top of soccer politics revolve around Qatar 2022 -We should all pay more attention to the name of Mohamed Bin Hammam, as he could end up running our sport before long.The global condemnation of FIFA's handling of December's World Cup vote has increased the likelihood of a challenge to the tumultuous 12-year reign of Sepp Blatter, and the knives are already being sharpened.

Ok, it's time to revive the dead horse and ride it some more. Trust me, I don't want to but I have to.

Since the December 2 vote to award Qatar the 2022 World Cup, I have made peace with the decision. While I still believe the country was not the best bid put forward (the U.

Several weeks ago, when this video was made, no one gave a flying oil drum about Qatar and its relationship to football not, at least, in the mainstream world. Now it appears they won't be able to get away without several million journalists masquerading as white-glove inspectors, turning over each and every move they make from now until 2022.
