The 2022 FIFA World Cup kicked off earlier this week, but the most prominent point of discussion is more wrapped up in Qatar's issues.

Qatar has a history of worker's rights abuse and homophobia, and all these associated controversies are still present in World Cup discussions.

D'Arcy Waldegrave, Sportstalk host, says that these discussions will probably become more football-dominated as the World Cup keeps moving forward, and he expects the World Cup will stop being so politicised as more games happen.
