Football World Cup: England manager Gareth Southgate criticised for Qatar worker explanations

Gareth Southgate has been criticised by human rights groups after saying workers in Qatar were “united” in deficient the World Cup to go ahead. The England boss said the Gulf state workers “want the football to come to Qatar” because they “love” the sport. Amnesty International said refugee labourers were more worried about having their rights “fully protected”. To know more about England Vs Wales Ticketsclick here.

Qatar, the host of the World Cup finals from 20 November, has been strongly criticised for its human rights best. Asked by the news channel CNN how significant football is given Qatar’s human rights concerns, Southgate, 52, said: “In the end, football is all. It’s why we’re there, it’s what we’re there to do.”

He added: “I’ve been out to Qatar numerous times and I’ve met with lots of the workers out there and they are joint in surely one thing, and that’s that they want the tournament to happen. “They want that because they love football. They want football to come to Qatar. But we also need to be truthful about how much we’re going to affect in a republic that we don’t control.”

It is estimated up to 30,000 migrant labourers have been used on schemes to build seven stadiums for the finals in Qatar, as well as a new airport, new metro and new infrastructures. The English Football Association (FA) has backed calls for recompense to be awarded for “any injury or death related to any edifice project” for the Football World Cup.

The England team also plans to invite migrant workers to the team’s World Cup exercise base in Al Wakrah to engage with players. “As an FA we’ve talked to human rights groups about what they would like to see, and we’re trying to provision those ideas with recompense for families who have lost workers and a worker’s rights centre,” Southgate told CNN.

“We’re supporting the things we’ve been asked to provision.”

Amnesty International’s migrants’ labour rights investigator Ella Knight said: “Many workers in Qatar will of course be football fans, but what migrant workers have stressed to us is the need to have their rights fully endangered, to be paid properly, able to change jobs freely and to enjoy safe and distinguished working conditions – before, during and after this competition.”

Knight added: “The World Cup is about to take place with vital labour reforms still very much incomplete business, and thousands of workers abuses remaining unaddressed. “The opening game is now less than three weeks away and Fifa is yet to obligate to curing workers and their families for the abuses they’ve suffered despite wide support from the public, FAs, players and World Cup sponsors.

“We urge the FA to maintain its pressure on Fifa, pushing it to recognise and urgently address the sorrow of workers without whom the World Cup simply wouldn’t be possible.” Minky Worden, director of global initiatives at Human Rights Watch, said: “There are many migrant workers who are proud of the work they have done to shape the Football World Cup in Qatar.

“But there are also many who have suffered avoidable deaths and harms and until the deaths, loans, injuries and wage theft are compensated, it is not correct to say all refugee workers are ‘united’.  “Any family who received a loved one and breadwinner home in a coffin without recompense from Fifa and Qatar cannot cheer the inaugural of this Qatar World Cup.”

Southgate said before that England’s players cannot do much more beyond discussing human rights subjects in the build-up to the World Cup. England captain Harry Kane will wear a One Love armband which seeks to endorse diversity and presence and act as a message against taste.

Homosexual acts are illegal in Qatar because they are careful to be immoral under Islamic Sharia law, with sentences including fines, prison sentences of up to seven years – and even demise. In February 2021, the Guardian said 6,500 migrant workers from India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka had died in Qatar since it won its World Cup bid.

The number is based on figures from the countries’ embassies in Qatar. However, the Qatar government said the total was misleading because not all the deaths recorded were of people working on World Cup-related projects. The administration said its accident records showed that between 2014 and 2020, there were 37 deaths among labourers at World Cup stadium building sites, only three of which were “work connected”.

“It doesn’t look optimistic,” Chelsea boss Graham Potter said.

“It’s a blow for us on a then positive evening I think. It’s a blow to see him pull up like that, it’s not a great sight.

“So fingers traversed when we get the scan it isn’t bad, it can be not severe, but we have to have fingers crossed at the moment. But clearly, we’re dissatisfied.”

Football World Cup injury watch

England kick off their World Cup movement in Qatar against Iran on 21 November. Chilwell has been capped 17 times and was part of the England team at Euro 2020, although he did not make an appearance during the competition. He suffered a ruptured cruciate tendon in November last year and was ruled out until May.

Asked if the injury is an anxiety for the Football World Cup, Potter added: “I think you’d have to say so. ” I don’t want to say any more than that but when a player pulls up like he did, and he felt it, it’s never positive. “It’s a blow for us and a blow for him and sadly he won’t be the only one who’s pretentious like that in this period because October was incredibly thought-provoking, the games that we had to play, but it is what it is.”

‘Heartbreaking so close to Football World Cup’

Former England Football World Cup manager Glenn Hoddle said on BT Sport: “I feel for [Ben Chilwell, dreadfully. Sometimes with a hamstring, you get a little warning sign. That’s when you put your hand up. “That one just went. His face went and as he touches the ball he grimaces and looks in real pain. It looks like a nasty one. I don’t understand why they haven’t carried him off.

“That’s such a blow. I am gutted for him.” Former Chelsea and England midfielder Joe Cole said he felt for Chilwell given how close it is to the World Cup. “It’s heartbreaking,” he said on BT Sport. “As soon as it happens all you can think about is that it is so close to a Football World Cup. “If it’s a hamstring injury usually the least you can hope for is two to three weeks before you get back on to the pitch. It’s tough. I feel for him.”
