Doha - Thousands of fans took to the streets of Doha on Thursday, blaring horns and waving flags in celebration at Qatar winning the bid to host the 2022 football World Cup. 'This is a moment of joy for all Arabs, everyone in Doha is on the street exploding with happiness and pride,' said Ali el-Hagary, a Qatari national, as he took a momentary break from celebrating the win.
Qatar will be the first Middle Eastern country - and first Islamic nation - to host a World Cup tournament and among the cheering supporters in Doha were citizens of other Arab countries, also waving their national flags with joy.
