The '''2022 IFA World Cup''' is the 65th [[IFA World Cup]], the bianual world championship for [[Anteria|Anterian]] men's national football teams. It is taking place in [[Gran Rugido]] from 1 December to 20 December 2022; it is the third tournament held in the country (after the [[1962 IFA World Cup|1962]] and [[1986 IFA World Cup|1986]] tournaments) and the fifth tournament organized by the IFA. [[New Sebronia National Football Team|New Sebronia]] are the defending champions of the tournament, after defeating [[Kentalis]] in the [[2020 IFA World Cup|2020 final]]. To avoid the extremes of Gran Rugido's hot climate, this World Cup is being held during the month of December. It is being played in a reduced timeframe of 19 days with 64 matches to be played in fourteen venues across eleven cities.
The '''2022 IFA World Cup''' was the 65th [[IFA World Cup]], the bianual world championship for [[Anteria|Anterian]] men's national football teams. It was played in [[Anáhuac]] from 1 December to 20 December 2022. Vultesia was originally chosen to host the competition by the IFA but, largely due to inner politics, was not able to do so, and resigned in 2021. After bids from [[Riojania]], [[Gavrilia]], [[Anáhuac]], [[The Cape Bay]] and [[Frarstizk]], Anáhuac was finally chosen as the new host on late October 2022; making it the third tournament held in the country (after the [[1962 IFA World Cup|1962]] and [[1986 IFA World Cup|1986]] tournaments) and the fifth tournament organized by the IFA (after the [[1992 IFA Women's World Cup|1992]] and [[2008 IFA Women's Cup|2008]] tournaments of the female world cup).
 
The World Cup was won by [[Wellsenfaile]] (their third title, after winning in 1904 and 1920). Wellsenfaile beat [[Gavrilia]] in the final at San Jorge Xayacatlán's Estadio Xalieca. Total attendance was of 3,404,252, an average per match of 53,192. To avoid the extremes of Anáhuac's hot climate, this World Cup was held during the month of December. Being played in a reduced timeframe of 19 days with 64 matches, the 2022 tournament broke several World Records regarding the time frame for organization, preparation, matches and to date is the first World Cup that had more than 7 cities hosting games.  
 


== Host Selection ==
== Host Selection ==
The bidding procedure to host the 2022 Mens and Womens IFA World Cups began on April 27th 2021, and national associations have until May 4th 2021 to register their interest. [[Layfet]], which hosted the 2020 Mens World Cup is ineligible to host the 2022 Men's World Cup. [[Encessia]], which hosted the 2020 Women's World Cup is ineligible to host the 2022 Womens World Cup.


Nations that have applied to host the 2022 Mens World Cup include: [[Bakyern]], [[Gran Rugido]], [[Lyonheimer]], [[New Sebronia]], [[Vultesia]], [[Wellsenfaile]], [[Riojania]], [[Gavrilia]], [[The Cape Bay]], [[Frarstizk]] and [[Yryel]].
[[Vultesia]] was originally chosen as hosts by the IFA in 2020, with Saltstil, Vodtsil, Nilmödydrom, Hærtstil, Agralbosz, Pyperdrom and Hoxhal intended as the hosts cities, plus otentially Obstreldrær. At some point however, Vultesia declared that they could not afford to host the World Cup. A new bidding procedure to host the 2022 Mens and Womens IFA World Cups began on April 27th 2021, and national associations have until May 4th 2021 to register their interest. [[Layfet]], which hosted the 2020 Mens World Cup was ineligible to host the 2022 Men's World Cup, while [[Encessia]], which hosted the 2020 Women's World Cup was ineligible to host the 2022 Womens World Cup.
 
Competition on the Men's World Cup bidding came from countries such as IFA favorite [[Riojania]], [[Gavrilia]], [[The Cape Bay]], [[Frarstizk]] and [[Anáhuac]]. On June 2022, the IFA committee announced Anáhuac as the replacement hosts after majority of votes and despite the Riojania bid being a favorite amongst directives. Anáhuac became the only [[Olivacia|Olivacian]] nation to host three World Cups, as it hosted the [[1962 IFA World Cup|1962]] and [[1986 IFA World Cup|1986]] tournaments. Despite losing the 2022 bid, [[Riojania]] was assured to be the hosts of the 2024 World Cup.
 
On the Women's Cup, competition was far more soft as only two countries applied for bidding: [[Mbuntrare]] and [[The Vanna]]. [[The Vanna]] eventually was announced as hosts the same day as the announcement of the Men's new hosts. The [[2022 IFA Women's Cup|Women's Cup]] is expected to begin after the Men's World Cup tournamnet has ended.  


Nations that have applied to host the 2022 Women's World Cup include: [[Mbuntrare]] and [[The  Vanna]].
The preparations of the World Cup and subjected to criticisms, due to the very tight timeframe between the annoucement of the new host and the inaugural game being just months away, being considered "rushed". While many experts expressed doubts on whether deadlines could be meeted, Anáhuac continued to go ahead with the preparations, mostly using the national [[Liga Ana]] assets that were already in place. Because of this, the 2022 World Cup broke the World Record of the "fastest organized professional tournament".

The tournament's official mascot was unveiled on 21 October 2021, and selected through a design competition among university students. A public vote was used to select the mascot from three finalists—a {{wp|Quetzal|quetzal}}, a {{wp|Jaguar|jaguar}} , and a {{wp|Axolotl|axolotl}}. The winner, with 53% or approximately 1 million votes, was an anthropomorphic axolotl dressed in the colours of the Gran Rugidoense national team. The mascot's name is Axel and his official backstory states that he is an aspiring football player who is "charming, confident and social". People associated with the ecological ''Regeneración'' program, praised the selection of the amphibian as the mascot as it could "raise awareness on the critically-endangered species".

The mascot's name is Axel and his official backstory states that he is an aspiring football player who is "charming, confident and social". People associated with the ecological ''Regeneración'' program, praised the selection of the amphibian as the mascot as it could "raise awareness on the critically-endangered species".

The ball was constructed using a new design, consisting of eight thermally bonded, three-dimensional panels. These were spherically moulded from ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) and thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU). The surface of the ball was textured with grooves, intended to improve the ball's aerodynamics. The balls were made in Kenyalis, using latex bladders and thermoplastic polyurethane-elastomer from Riamo, ethylene vinyl acetate, isotropic polyester/cotton fabric, and glue and ink from Hoterallia.

The 2022 IFA World Cup was the 65th IFA World Cup, the bianual world championship for Anterian men's national football teams. It was played in Anáhuac from 1 December to 20 December 2022. Vultesia was originally chosen to host the competition by the IFA but, largely due to inner politics, was not able to do so, and resigned in 2021. After bids from Riojania, Gavrilia, Anáhuac, The Cape Bay and Frarstizk, Anáhuac was finally chosen as the new host on late October 2022; making it the third tournament held in the country (after the 1962 and 1986 tournaments) and the fifth tournament organized by the IFA (after the 1992 and 2008 tournaments of the female world cup).

The World Cup was won by Wellsenfaile (their third title, after winning in 1904 and 1920). Wellsenfaile beat Gavrilia in the final at San Jorge Xayacatlán's Estadio Xalieca. Total attendance was of 3,404,252, an average per match of 53,192. To avoid the extremes of Anáhuac's hot climate, this World Cup was held during the month of December. Being played in a reduced timeframe of 19 days with 64 matches, the 2022 tournament broke several World Records regarding the time frame for organization, preparation, matches and to date is the first World Cup that had more than 7 cities hosting games.


Host Selection

Vultesia was originally chosen as hosts by the IFA in 2020, with Saltstil, Vodtsil, Nilmödydrom, Hærtstil, Agralbosz, Pyperdrom and Hoxhal intended as the hosts cities, plus otentially Obstreldrær. At some point however, Vultesia declared that they could not afford to host the World Cup. A new bidding procedure to host the 2022 Mens and Womens IFA World Cups began on April 27th 2021, and national associations have until May 4th 2021 to register their interest. Layfet, which hosted the 2020 Mens World Cup was ineligible to host the 2022 Men's World Cup, while Encessia, which hosted the 2020 Women's World Cup was ineligible to host the 2022 Womens World Cup.

Competition on the Men's World Cup bidding came from countries such as IFA favorite Riojania, Gavrilia, The Cape Bay, Frarstizk and Anáhuac. On June 2022, the IFA committee announced Anáhuac as the replacement hosts after majority of votes and despite the Riojania bid being a favorite amongst directives. Anáhuac became the only Olivacian nation to host three World Cups, as it hosted the 1962 and 1986 tournaments. Despite losing the 2022 bid, Riojania was assured to be the hosts of the 2024 World Cup.

On the Women's Cup, competition was far more soft as only two countries applied for bidding: Mbuntrare and The Vanna. The Vanna eventually was announced as hosts the same day as the announcement of the Men's new hosts. The Women's Cup is expected to begin after the Men's World Cup tournamnet has ended.

The preparations of the World Cup and subjected to criticisms, due to the very tight timeframe between the annoucement of the new host and the inaugural game being just months away, being considered "rushed". While many experts expressed doubts on whether deadlines could be meeted, Anáhuac continued to go ahead with the preparations, mostly using the national Liga Ana assets that were already in place. Because of this, the 2022 World Cup broke the World Record of the "fastest organized professional tournament".

Qualification

IFA's six continental confederations organize their own qualifying competitions. All IFA member associations are eligible to enter qualification. The hosts will be qualified automatically for the tournament.
