CM 2014: Brazil gets a avoinée FIFA!
While the 2010 World Cup fast approaching for the greatest joy of all the crazy football (go over 35 days!), The path that leads Brazil to organize the World Cup 2014 ( he has achieved here is almost 3 years) seems fraught with pitfalls! Thus, the general secretary of FIFA, Jerome Valcke , has dropped severely before yesterday about the many delays by Brazil in the construction and / or renovations (promises) of its 12 stadiums for 2014. In the lot, only 3 stages, those of Manaus (Amazonia Arena) Cuiabia ( Verdão ) and Belo Horizonte ( Mineirão ) started their work effectively. The 9 other projects (renovations Maracana in Rio, the Beira-Rio Porto Alegre, in the Estadio Nacional of Brasilia, Fortaleza Castelão , the Arena da Baixada Curitiba of Fonte Nova of Salvador, Morumbi São Paulo-the latter having not yet even received the approval of FIFA! - and construction of stadiums in Recife-the Capiberibe Arena - and Natal - das Dunas Arena) support to major delays from the original schedule submitted to FIFA!
And therefore the Valcke was angry red. Excerpts:
"Brazil does not take the right path ... I received a report on the situation of Brazilian stadiums, it's amazing! What I'm saying is that the report is not pretty nice. Indeed, the number of stages where the red light is on, it's unbelievable! I can not believe how much the country is lagging behind ... I'm so annoyed that I do not even know what to expect. Brazil is trying to show that it is also difficult to organize a global football with him than it is in South Africa ( big tackle !)... We ask Brazil to meet the commitments that it took in 2007 ... Each day is important because there are presidential elections (in October ), and few things are moving now and then and then came the carnival, and nothing will happen (the guy knows Brazil!; ) ... The Confederations Cup is in 2013 (she will Brazil), in just 3 years. We must work with anticipation. Here almost 3 years that Brazil has been chosen. It is better to work on time rather than chasing the time ... No way to change country ( no plan B. So, contrary to rumors started by the Brazilian daily Lance! ) or to reduce the number of stages, one must necessarily work to organize the World Cup in 12 stadiums. "
If the Maracana (pictured above) is actually emblematic of delay: it was shut down in late 2009 (at the close of Brasileirão ), then in May 2010 ... but the public tender is not even finished! So no official date closure and work (it's the same scenario for the stages of Brasilia, Salvador and Fortaleza). On the other hand, the better we can continue to follow the Carioca championship the Brasileirão and Libertadores 2010 (Mengo qualified yesterday against Corinthians!) In the " Maior do Mundo " nickname Maracana!
But good friends do Brasil, will still have to think to get active, right? :)
