With 32 countries, 64 games and a little under a month to pack it in, the 2022 World Cup promises to be an emotional roller coaster for players and fans alike.
Admittedly, it gets off to a pretty underwhelming start with Qatar vs Ecuador kicking off proceedings. But once the opener is out of the way the tournament quickly catches fire.
The following day we finally get to see how England perform without a gruelling Premier League season in their legs, while Wales’ 64-year World Cup absence ends with a clash against USA.
Spain vs Germany is the undoubted highlight of the first round from a neutral perspective but with up to four games a day, keeping abreast of all the action and reaction will be no small task.
