Qatar 2022 World Cup draw before the Peruvian repechage: This is how the groups were

Today it was known how the 8 groups of the Qatar 2022 World Cup will look like. The event was held at the Doha Exhibition and Congress Centre in Qatar. The host country of the World Cup will face Ecuador in the opening match of the tournament, on November 21 at Al Bayt Stadium.

The host will play their first World Cup finals and will be in Pool A with Ecuador, Holland and African champion Senegal, who eliminated Egypt from Mohamed Salah.

For its part, the Peruvian national team would face the teams of France, Denmark and Tunisia in Group D of the World Cup, but first they have to play the repechage match between the winner between the United Arab Emirates and Australia on June 13 in Doha from 01:00pm (Peruvian time) in a single match.

The bicolor, directed by Ricardo Gareca in his second elimination process, has participated in the world championships in Uruguay 30, Mexico 70, Argentina 78, Spain 82 and Russia 2018, which he attended after 36 years of absence.

Everything will take place today, Friday, April 1 (see all the times below), where we will be able to know how the 8 groups will be made up. It should be noted that the teams are divided into 4 pots, according to the FIFA ranking. That is, the best placed are in bass drum 1 (seeded heads) and so on.

There are still 3 places available and these will come out of the repechages of different confederations. Oceania against CONCACAF (New Zealand vs Costa Rica), Asia vs CONMEBOL (Peru vs Australia or the United Arab Emirates) and UEFA (Wales vs Ukraine or Scotland). These teams will only know their future in June.

Qatar, as the organizer of the World Cup, is the only team that already has a group: it will be in the A. Then everyone will be on the balls. The draw goes in order of the drum. The players in the 4th, for example, will close the boxes (here is everyone who will play the repechage). But there are other details as well.

Only Europeans can have up to 2 teams in the same group. Not the rest. Example: we won't see Argentina vs Uruguay at this stage. And if Peru qualifies for the tournament, it will not be able to measure itself against teams from Asia either, since the repechage is being played by a team from that confederation. That's the way things are in the previous one.

The gala will be full of world stars. We will also see leaders, technicians and journalists. And not to miss anything, Infobae will bring you the minute by minute of everything that happens in Doha since the early hours of April 1. Let's take note!
