Zurich, Jumada I 28, 1436, Mar 19, 2015, SPA -- The final of the controversial Qatar 2022 World Cup is to be held on December 18, FIFA spokesman Walter di Gregorio said Thursday in Zurich. FIFA's Executive Committee needed only one session to make the final decision to change the usual June-July World Cup dates to November-December, in line with the recommendations of a FIFA taskforce on the issue. Di Gregorio also said the tournament is set to be shorter than usual, lasting only 28 days. --SPA 22:08 LOCAL TIME 19:08 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
