Global soccer body FIFA says it has set up a joint venture with Qatar to deliver the 2022 World Cup which will be held in the Gulf state.
FIFA said in a statement that it would hold 51 percent of the shares, and the Qatar Local Organising Committee 49 percent. "Today, we take a major step in the organisation of the biggest single-sport event in the world," said FIFA Secretary General Fatma Samoura.
