Qatar 2022 will have high-quality games as season has just started: Brazil's Kaka

Brazil have already qualified for the footballing extravaganza and are leading the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying table with 45 points from 17 games

Former Brazil international Kaka believes that since the tournament is being held within three months of the start of the European footballing calendar, players will be fresher and hence the quality of matches will be higher than usual during the FIFA World Cup 2022. 

“The players will have just started the season. We will see a different World Cup with different conditions. Everything is going in that direction where I think we are going to have a lot of good and high-quality games,” Kaka said at an event in Qatar. 

“The 2022 World Cup in Qatar is unique in various ways. One of the major changes is that it will kick off in November, which is a shift from its usual June-July window,” he added.

Brazil have already qualified for the footballing extravaganza and are leading the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying table with 45 points from 17 games. They are in a rich vein of form and have won their last three matches by a four-goal margin against the likes of Paraguay, Chile, and Bolivia respectively. Kaka has no doubt that Brazil are one of the favourites to win the coveted trophy. He felt Neymar has what it takes to lead Brazil to glory and will be ably supported by other teammates like Vinicius Jr and Philippe Coutinho among others.

“Brazil are one of the favourites. They are peaking at the right time. They beat Chile 4-0, won their last three games convincingly and one of them was without Neymar. Brazil has a strong group and this gives Neymar more potential to shine,” said Kaka, a 2002 World Cup winner.
