The Oranje used their first home qualifier to call a “change” ahead of the finals in 2022
The Netherlands have joined Germany and Norway in protesting against Qatar’s human rights record before they won the World Cup against Latvia on Saturday.
The show represented a stand against the 2022 allegations of World Cup hosts against migrants in the Gulf country.
Thousands of migrant workers have been reported to have died during the construction of stadiums in Qatar a few years ago, and the demonstration competition is expected to be held in the country in 2022.

The show follows a similar man made by a Norwegian team, who wore shirts with the message “Human rights on and off the pitch” before facing Gibraltar and Turkey in a World Cup qualifier.
Meanwhile, Germany was also wearing T-shirts featuring “human rights” before embarking on Iceland in their certification trench on March 25.
Norwegian coach Staale Solbakken said the complaint was an attempt “to pressure FIFA to be even more direct, even stronger with the authorities in Qatar, in order to enforce stricter requirements”.
Dutch leader Frank de Boer said at the same time: “There is a lot of focus now on whether we should go if we deserve it.
“It is right to ask that question. Everyone knows that what is happening there is not good.
“Human Rights Guard and Amnesty International have said that if we go there, we can better advance the cause.”
FIFA urged him to take action
Human rights group Amnesty International this week urged FIFA to press Qatar to clear its human rights record.
A letter sent to FIFA president Gianni Infantino earlier this week read: competition.
“At the very least, this means that FIFA should use its full influence to persuade Qatar to implement and implement its own government reforms to ensure that labor rights all migrant workers are protected. “
What’s going on in Qatar?
Search from The Keeper published in February states that more than 6,500 migrant workers from India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka have died in Qatar in the past 10 years.

The proposals included removing the rights of migrant workers to change jobs during their contract, limiting the number of times they can change, and increasing the number of workers. which requires exit permits to leave the country.
