How To Watch World Cup 2022 In Australia

One of the world’s biggest sporting events, the FIFA World Cup, is set to take place in November and Dember 2022, with Qatar being the host country. The 2022 FIFA World Cup marks the first time the global football tournament has taken place outside of the usual European summer months, owing to the extreme heat the Middle East will experience during the same period.

The Socceroos have qualified for the FIFA World Cup 2022 too, and have been drawn in Group D where they will face reigning champions France, Denmark and Tunisia. Australia was drawn against France and Denmark in the 2018 World Cup, along with Peru, but failed to make it out of the group stage.

So, how can you support the Socceroos and watch the World Cup in Australia in 2022? Read on to find out.
