DOHA: A Qatar Football Association delegation has visited

the Khalifa International Stadium ahead of the national

team’s World Cup qualifying game against China next month.

The inspection visit saw QFA officials inquiring about the

readiness of the venue for the high profile match set to be

played on September 5.

The Qatar vs China match will be the second football fixture

hosted by Khalifa International Stadium after the Emir Cup

final staged in May.

The upcoming match will be another valuable opportunity

for those who have not seen the stadium, a QFA official said

on Monday.

The stadium is a 2022 World Cup venue fully renovated with

LED lighting system and air conditioning system.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino was present at the Emir Cup

final.
