The Qatar World Cup has provoked strong and sometimes conflicting, reactions in many people.

In this series of videos, written by James Montague and illustrated by Alice Devine, Tifo explains why the World Cup in the Gulf State is so controversial.

How did Qatar win the right to host a World Cup? What is FIFA’s role in this?

In this episode, we learn of FIFA’s decades of alleged corruption, who the key individuals were in electing Qatar, and how Qatar managed to convince the world's most influential people that this was a good idea.
