The choice of the leading factors in football cause acute controversy after it became clear that the finals will be held in the winter. Despite the criticism, Platini does not regret this choice.

"I do not regret that I voted for Qatar. I said it would be good to have matches in the winter, before it becomes clear that Qatar will host. I said two things. I said it would be great if the games can be in the winter, some of the games can be and in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Kuwait City, "said Platini.
