FIFA World Cup 2022 Teams & Groups
The FIFA World Cup is an international football tournament held every four years. The 2022 FIFA World Cup will be the 22nd edition of the event and is scheduled to take place in Qatar from 21 November to 18 December 2022. This will be the first World Cup held in the Arab world. The tournament will be played across eight venues, all located within Qatar. A total of 32 teams under the FIFA World Cup 2022 Groups will compete in the tournament, with Qatar qualifying automatically as hosts. The other 31 teams will be selected through a qualification process, which began in March 2019 and concluded in November 2021.
The 2022 FIFA World Cup will feature 64 matches, with each team playing three group stage games and then progressing to a knockout round if they finish in one of the top two positions in their group. The final list of the FIFA World Cup 2022 qualified teams’ squads will be announced just before the start of the tournament, but each team must first submit a release list of players who will not be participating in the event as a preliminary squad list. These lists are usually submitted several months before the tournament begins. FIFA regulations state that only 23 players can be included in a squad for the World Cup, so some difficult decisions have to be made by each team when it comes to finalising their list. The 2022 FIFA World Cup promises to be an exciting event, with plenty of drama and surprises for fans worldwide.

The FIFA World Cup 2022 Teams Release List
As we approach the FIFA World Cup 2022, teams are finalising their rosters and preparing for the biggest international soccer tournament in the world. Part of this process is providing FIFA with a release list of no more than 55 players. This list includes important information such as the player's full name, date of birth, passport number, and club. It also notes the player's height, weight, caps (international appearances), and goals scored. With this information, FIFA can ensure that all players are eligible to compete in the World Cup and that they are listed correctly on official documents and rosters. The release list is an essential part of preparing for the FIFA World Cup and helps ensure that the tournament runs smoothly for all involved.
FIFA has announced that each team competing in the FIFA World Cup 2022 must provide FIFA with a final list of at least 23 and a maximum of 26 players (including three goalkeepers) and 27 officials. This list is known as the final list. The players on the final list shall be chosen from the players on the release list. Only the players on the final list will be permitted to participate in the FIFA World Cup 2022. Additionally, only 26 people (which include 15 substitutes and 11 team officials (one of these officials must be a team doctor)) will be allowed to sit on the team bench. These new measures ensure that each team is prepared for the FIFA World Cup 2022 and that the competition is fair for all teams involved.

FIFA World Cup 2022 Player Replacement
FIFA World Cup 2022 promises to be one of the most hotly contested tournaments in recent memory, with teams from all over the world vying for a spot in the final. One of the key rules for the 2022 Fifa World Cup participating teams is that they must abide by the restriction on player replacement. A player on the final list may only be replaced in the event of serious injury or illness up until 24 hours before the start of his team's first match. The replacement players do not need to be limited to the release list. The replacement players shall be nominated by the participating group, who shall inform FIFA accordingly (including all of the specific player information and a copy of his passport). FIFA Medical, represented by FIFA's General Medical Officer, will use a written detailed medical assessment in one of FIFA's four official languages to ascertain whether an injury or illness is sufficiently severe to prevent the player from participating in the tournament. This rule is in place to ensure that teams are not disadvantaged due to injuries sustained during training or before the tournament. With so much at stake, FIFA World Cup 2022 is sure to be an event everyone will discuss for years to come.
