Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a popular Wikipedia page every day.

With 275,604 views on Wednesday, 16 November 2022 our article of the day is 2022 FIFA World Cup.

The 2022 FIFA World Cup is an upcoming international men's association football championship contested by the senior national teams of the member associations of FIFA, the 22nd edition of the FIFA World Cup competition. It is scheduled to take place in Qatar from 20 November to 18 December 2022. This will be the first World Cup ever to be held in the Arab world, and the second World Cup held entirely in Asia after the 2002 tournament in South Korea and Japan. The tournament is set to be the last with a 32-team field; the field is slated to increase to 48 teams for the 2026 tournament in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

Due to Qatar's intense summer heat and humidity, this World Cup will be held in the winter, making it the first tournament not to be held in May, June, or July and to take place in the northern autumn; it will be played in a reduced timeframe of 29 days. The opening match will be contested between Qatar and Ecuador at Al Bayt Stadium, Al Khor. The final is due to be held on 18 December 2022, which is also Qatar National Day. The reigning World Cup champions are France, who had defeated Croatia 4–2 in the 2018 FIFA World Cup final.
