We are less than two months away from the start of Qatar 2022 and all the teams, together with the directors of the federations, begin to plan their stay in Arab lands. As usual, almost a year in advance, the federations make reservations for the places where their teams will stay throughout their participation in the tournament. In the case of the Argentine National Team, he chose Qatar University as a base.
Created in 1977, the University of Qatar is located in Doha, the capital of the Arab country, 16 kilometers from the city center and is the main center of education in the country since it houses, within its campus, ten faculties. Its facilities extend over 25,000 square meters so that Argentine players will have total comfort on the premises. As for sports, it has thirty removable and adaptable playing fields for sports such as soccer, futsal, basketball and others. It has a “mini” stadium that can reach 10,000 seated spectators with lighting so that night training can be carried out in total comfort. In addition, it has two Olympic swimming pools that are linked to an area that has a sauna and Jacuzzi.
The idea that the top managers of the AFA have, headed by Claudio “Chiqui” Tapia, is to invest a considerable amount of money with the aim of making the facilities as similar as possible to those of the property that the AFA owns in Ezeiza.
In addition, within the same venue, the complete delegation of the Spanish National Team will also be housed. According to the authorities of both teams, the faces will not be seen nor will they cross throughout the world due to the breadth of the campus. It should also be noted that Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool stayed at this property when they competed in the 2019 Club World Cup.
