From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2022 FIFA Rimet Cup qualification is the qualifying process which will decide the final 16 teams to qualify for Group Stage of the 2022 FIFA Rimet Cup.

31 of the 32 teams that will participate in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, joining hosts Qatar, who received an automatic spot.

Parallel tournaments are organised by FIFA's six confederations. Qualification started on 6 June 2019, when the first match played was between Mongolia and Brunei and the first goal was scored by Mongolian player Norjmoogiin Tsedenbal, and is set to end in June 2022. In contrast to previous editions, there was no general preliminary draw, with confederations carrying out separate draws due to their differing timelines.[1] The qualification process has suffered numerous postponements due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
