Thirty-two teams will travel to Qatar to compete for the coveted title of the world’s best soccer team, though this year’s tournament will be notably different, taking place five months after its usual start date due to the host country’s intense heat. The World Cup in Qatar has been the subject of much criticism and controversy, with [reports](https://time.com/6227277/qatar-extreme-heat-world-cup-2022/) of human rights abuses that have led to serious illness and even death of thousands of foreign workers. Some networks that will broadcast the games, like Fox News, have said they will steer clear of reporting on the country’s troubling record. “Our focus is entirely on the 64-game tournament,” Fox Sports executive producer David Neal [told](https://www.inquirer.com/soccer/fox-world-cup-qatar-human-rights-abuses-20221013.html) the Philadelphia Inquirer. Eight stadiums across five cities will host the event. You can find a rundown of the upcoming matches by visiting FIFA’s [website](https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/match-centre?date=2022-11-10). The teams were split into eight groups, with four teams in each category. Group matches end on Friday, Dec. 2\. Quarter-finals begin on Friday, Dec. 9\. The World Cup final will take place on Dec. 18 at 10 a.m. ET at Lusail Iconic Stadium. Here’s how you can watch: ## How to watch on TV Live broadcasts of the World Cup will be available on FOX Sports (FOX and FS1). Spanish speakers can also watch soccer matches in their preferred language on Telemundo Deportes or Universo. The World Cup will not be available on ESPN or ESPN +. ## How to stream Live streaming is available for [Peacock](https://www.peacocktv.com/) subscribers for $4.99 a month.
