The temperature here, just after 2pm, is hot enough to exceed 30 degrees Celsius, but the stadium is air-conditioned, so it's cool. It's kind of felt. 



We covered the Education City Stadium, where the Korean game is held.



Education City Stadium in the shape of a white bird's nest in the middle of the land of martyrs is the place where all three qualifying matches of Korea will be played.



I went into the stadium where the last inspection was in full swing.



At this time, the temperature here in Doha is well over 30 degrees.



However, if you measure the seat temperature in the stadium, it does not exceed 20 degrees.



It is thanks to the unimaginable cooling system that the temperature can always be maintained in the low 20s in the open outdoor stadium.



It supplies cold air by making air holes under the seats and around the ground, and the wind pressure of the vents is strong enough to cause passersby to stumble, and it is an extra-large air conditioner that is 4 stories high in a building composed of only outdoor units.



Because of the air conditioning, the surface temperature of the ground is low enough not to exceed 15 degrees, and a special lighting machine that applies light and heat for the growth of green grass was also installed.

The first ever Winter World Cup in the environment awaits the opening.
