The 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar begins Sunday, Nov. 20, with the curtain-raiser at Al Bayt Stadium between the host nation and a fortunate Ecuador. Why's Ecuador so lucky? Because, as the latest World Cup odds 2022 show, Qatar is by far and away the worst seeded team in the eight groups.
Brazil, king of kings, became one of the first World Cup participants to reveal their final squad Monday — basically telling the rest of the world to gaze upon its marvelous 26-man roster and despair.
Brazil just announced their final squad ahead of the start of the World Cup this month and they're one of the first big nations to do so.
Big names, young stars and attacking machinery. The clear outcast? A very, very familiar face in world soccer.

Monday, Nov. 7, marks exactly two weeks until the USMNT opens World Cup play against Wales at Al Rayyan Stadium. The event is almost upon us, and it all becomes very real Wednesday when manager Gregg Berhalter reveals his final 26-man roster at 5 p.m. ET on ESPN2 and ESPN+.
There are still plenty of question marks to discuss in our final USA World Cup roster prediction. Berhalter just wrapped up a nine-man fitness camp for MLS-based players, and he'll spend the next 24 hours gathering all the latest intel on European-based guys who are suffering with lingering injuries.
Carlos Vela has been a hot topic this week. Not only because of the commanding way he led LAFC to the MLS Cup Final against Philadelphia Union this Saturday, but also because of the heavy criticism he has received in Mexico after a report emerged saying he had refused to represent the national team in the World Cup. Again.
Poco a poco, las selecciones que participarán de la Copa del Mundo 2022 comienzan a publicar la lista de 26 hombres que llevarán a Catar. Sin embargo, no son las únicas afinando los últimos detalles para el torneo. Los canales de televisión que transmitirán el evento también empiezan a anunciar sus equipos de narradores y expertos analistas para la competencia.
Un ejemplo de esto es la cadena Telemundo, la cual será la encargada de transmitir en español todas las alternativas del Mundial en territorio estadounidense.

Costa Rica head coach Luis Fernando Suarez entrusted veterans Keylor Navas, Bryan Ruiz, Joel Campbell and Oscar Duarte to lead their challenge at the Qatar World Cup as he named his 26-man selection for the tournament on Thursday.
The tournament will be the quartet's third World Cup finals appearance, with Suarez also including the likes of Francisco Calvo, Yeltsin Tejeda and Kendall Waston.
There was also a place for young Sunderland striker Jewison Bennette who opened his international account with two goals against South Korea in September.
BARCELONA - Barcelona defender Gerard Piqué called time on his glittering career on Thursday, saying he will retire from football when LaLiga breaks for the World Cup this month.
Piqué, 35, said in a video posted on social media that Saturday's league clash with Almería on Saturday will be his last at Barcelona's Camp Nou after 14 years with the Catalan giants following his return from Manchester United in 2008.
Barcelona will travel to Osasuna on Tuesday for their final fixture before the Nov. 20-Dec. 18 World Cup.
Parece no ser secreto que las chances de que Santiago Giménez vaya al Mundial de Catar están atadas directamente al proceso de recuperación de Raúl Jiménez, quien sufre de una terca pubalgia.
Si el delantero del Wolverhampton se recupera, Bebote se queda debajo del avión. Si Raúl no está al ciento por ciento, entonces Santi tendrá su primera experiencia mundialista.
Y el jugador poco a poco se va haciendo la idea.
