The World Cup kicks off today, with Qatar facing Ecuador in the first match of the competition. Qatar became the 80th country in the history of the World Cup to qualify. Ecuador is far ahead of Qatar in terms of experience.
However, the only hope for Qatari footballers is to get the support of 60 thousand spectators at home. The other two teams in this group are Netherlands and Senegal. Both groups are relatively strong. The hopes of winning against these two teams are very low. So Qatar is desperate to win this match.
