Japan bidding to Host 2022 World Cup

The 2010 World Cup only recently finished after being successfully staged in South Africa. We already know that the 2014 world Cup is headed to Brazil and that it is widely believed that the 2018 games will be awarded to a European country. However the 2022 World Cup bid race is still an open one and Japan is in the running to host the world’s most prestigious and most watch sporting tournament.

The name of the bid is “Dream 2022” and the tagline is “Our Dream: A world united through football.” Japan withdrew from the 2018 bidding race earlier this year to focus solely on winning the 2022 winning tournament. A summary of the bid book submitted to FIFA is available online or can be downloaded in PDF format. There is also a wealth of information on the official bid website and many videos on the bid committee Youtube channel, one of which I have embedded below.
