  • Five Key Facts About Education City Stadium I See You in 2022
    Received by NSD/FARA Registration Unit 06/17/2020 5:58:05 PM Education City Stadium Launch Pitches Architecture/Design Reporters Subject line: Diamond in the Desert: Architectural marvel now complete Hi, The 40,000-capacity football arena, dubbed Diamond in the Desert, is now complete. This is the third tournament venue for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 in Doha, Qatar. The stadium sits in the heart of Qatar Foundation's Education City, and has been built for use long after the World Cup ends. I thought you might be interested in spotlighting this architectural marvel that skillfully blends design and sustainability. It blends both beautiful architecture with innovative systems built to sustainably cool spectators and athletes in a hot desert climate. Geometric patterns on the stadium's facade appear to change color as the sun moves during the day, and the stadium has received the prestigious five-star rating from the Global Sustainability Assessment System (GSAS), making it one of the most sustainable venues for Qatar 2022. Other notable features include: • Designed by Mark Fenwick of Fenwick Iribarren Architects in Madrid, Spain, the stadium was designed to provide intense and potent effect for soccer fans. The roof is designed to help acoustics bounce on to the pitch, heightening the excitement of the games. • Designed within Qatar Foundation's footprint, the Education City stadium takes advantage of the climate to maintain a cool temperature inside the structure. The stadium incorporates multiple passive design elements reducing the overall energy consumption. • The shape of the stadium stops wind from getting into the venue for more effective cooling in the desert heat.

With just one round remaining, a victory for Duhail against Al Ahli next week will assure them the title. Rayyan too faced some anxious mo- ments yesterday before Yacine Brahimi converted a penalty in the 84th minute as they stayed in contention with a 1-0 win over Al Shahania at the Al Janoub Stadium. For Rayyan to win the title, they need to beat Al Wakrah in their last match and also hope Duhail stumble against Al Ahli. Reigning champions Al Sadd (44 points) are out of contention for the title. At the Al Sadd Stadium, al-Ahrak opened the scoring as early as the ninth minute as The Red Knights held on for an important win, their 15th of the campaign, the most by any team.
