Qatari fans then responded to the protests by referring to Germany's questionable treatment of zil, the former player who quit the national team after being subjected to racist behavior and allegedly being the scapegoat for Germany's defeat at the start of the 2018 World Cup. 

zil himself is a footballer of Turkish descent who was born in Germany. He accused the country's football federation, fans, and the media of racism against people of Turkish descent.

"I'm German when we win, but I'm an immigrant when we lose," zil said at the time.

Racist acts had taken place before the 2018 World Cup when zil and his Germany team-mate Ilkay Gndogan posed for a photo with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Gndogan also has Turkish blood. He was later booed by German fans during a World Cup warm-up match.

Commenting on the controversy surrounding LGBT issues at the 2022 World Cup, Gundogan said, "To be honest, my point of view is: now politics is done," said Gndogan. "Qatar is very proud to host the World Cup, as well as being the first Muslim country, and I come from a Muslim family. So Muslims are proud. So I think right now it's only about football."

FIFA's policy has reaped the pros and cons. European countries, as mentioned above, are known to have objections.

Denmark, which feels that it is starting to get irritated with the direction of FIFA's policy, revealed that there will be plans for a meeting with other UEFA member countries after the 2022 World Cup ends to consider the possibility of several member countries leaving FIFA.

Jesper Moller, chairman of the Danish Football Association (DBU), revealed that his party's stance was clear and that FIFA's policy direction, which was considered to be inconsistent, had been discussed among countries in the Nordic region since last August.

"We have to restore faith in FIFA, we have to assess what has happened, and then we have to come up with a strategy, with our partners in the Nordic region," said Moller.

For information, currently, 211 countries are members of FIFA. Many of the major countries in Europe wielded power, authority, and money within the organization.

It could be, FIFA President, Gianni Infantino, will be forced to carry out reforms or face a "rebellion" from these European countries.
