The 2022 IFA World Cup is the 65th IFA World Cup, the bianual world championship for 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 and 1986 tournaments) and the fifth tournament organized by the IFA. New Sebronia are the defending champions of the tournament, after defeating Kentalis in the 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.

Symbols

Mascot

Tournament mascot, Axel el Ajolote

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 quetzal, a jaguar , and a 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".
