Qatar 2022, FIFA thinks about cameras in the locker room but … delayed because you never know …

FIFA would be thinking about introducing cameras in the locker room in Qatar, but there is no shortage of doubts. Is it right to resume the pre-match speeches? And what if something happens that it is better not to show?

Prudence is never too much, so it is better to keep the handful of seconds available that can allow the real-time editing of situations that it is better not to show or to listen to (and any reference to foul language and / or accidental nudity of the players is not not at all casual). Therefore, it is better that the squad for Qatar 2022 begin to prepare. And if they hoped that at least inside the locker rooms their privacy would be spared, the stars of the upcoming world championship had definitely misunderstood …
