FIFA WORLD CUP Brazil

The FIFA World Cup, sometimes called the Football World Cup or the Soccer
World Cup, but usually referred to simply as the World Cup, is an international football
competition contested by the men's national football teams of the member nations of
Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the sport's global governing
body. The championship has been awarded every four years since the first tournament in
1930, except in 1942 and 1946, due to World War II.
The 2014 FIFA Football World Cup will be the 20th FIFA World Cup, and will be
held in Brazil. It was scheduled to take place in South America and Brazil was selected on
30 October 2007 to host the competition as the only country to put in a bid.
This will be the second time Brazil hosts the competition. The country also hosted
the 1950 FIFA World Cup. It will also be the first World Cup to be held in South America
since Argentina 1978. No other South American country has hosted the World Cup more
than once. FIFA confirmed Brazil as the host nation on 30 October 2007. Brazil had been
expected to host the tournament after Colombia, the only other declared candidate,
withdrew its bid on 11 April 2007.
Brazil will become the fifth nation to host the FIFA World Cup twice, after Mexico,
Italy, France and Germany. The Estádio do Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro will most probably
become the second stadium after the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City to host two Football
World Cup Finals. Brazil will become the first nation to break the well-established chain of
allowing a European nation to host the World Cup Finals every eight years - with South
Africa scheduled to host the Finals in 2010, there will be at least a twelve-year interlude
between Finals hosted by European nations.
There are nineteen cities that showed interest in being chosen as hosts for the
World Cup's games: Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Belo Horizonte, Porto Alegre, Brasília,
Belém, Campo Grande, Cuiabá, Curitiba, Florianópolis, Fortaleza, Goiânia, Maceió,
Manaus, Natal, Recife/Olinda (a stadium will be shared by both cities), Rio Branco and
Salvador.
According to current FIFA practice, no more than one city may use two stadia,
and the number of host cities is limited between eight and ten. The Brazilian
Confederation already requested permission to assign twelve cities to host the World Cup
Finals.
A reported $1 billion dollars is to be approved for the repair, upgrading and
maintenance of the stadiums. Concern has been expressed that the public investment
required to upgrade existing stadiums in poor condition, at an estimated cost of $1.1
billion, will add to Brazil’s debt burden. According to FIFA’s own inspection report,“None
of the stadiums in Brazil would be suitable to stage 2014 FIFA World Cup matches in their
current state”.
The following days will show if they succeeded …
