:00:29.:00:33.

a big argument over the 2022 World Cup in Qatar in the Middle East.

:00:34.:00:38.

It's after allegations the country may have broken the

:00:39.:00:40.

There were huge celebrations when Qatar was picked to host

:00:41.:00:53.

It would be the first time the tournament would be played

:01:07.:01:10.

Over the weekend a newspaper report alleged that
