The Hallenstadion is empty, there are no spectators in the draw to qualify for the 2022 World Cup. Legends Daniele de Rossi from Italy and Rafael van der Vaart from the Netherlands draw luck. The coaches and players of the 55 European teams live it virtually.
13 of them will qualify for the World Cup. At 6:42 p.m. it is set: the path of our national team passes through Italy, Northern Ireland, Bulgaria and Lithuania. The games will take place between March and November 2021, while the EM will be rescheduled.
Italians again
Mamma mia, the homeland of pasta again! Both in the European Championship and in qualifying for the World Cup, the national team will face Italy. It will be a very difficult task for the national team.
Especially since Northern Ireland is tough. 1-0 and 0-0 were the results in the 2018 World Cup playoffs, when Switzerland last faced these tough but limited opponents in play. If not? Bulgaria and Lithuania should not play a significant role in this group for the top three places.
Switzerland must be first in the group to qualify for the World Cup to qualify directly for Qatar 2022. Otherwise, there are playoff matches as group runners-up (as well as the top two Nations League teams, which have yet to are classified).
Divided into three qualifying routes, the twelve teams will battle for the remaining three European start spots in knockout games at the end of March 2022 (first leg only). First in six semifinals, then in three finals.
The Qatar World Cup will be the last with 32 teams, from 2026 there will be 48. And for climatic reasons, it will be played from November 22 to December 18, 2022. Hopefully with our national team.
