Brazil 2014 FIFA World Cup

Written by MK

In less than 4 years, Brazil will be the new host for one of the most anticipated and major events in the world, the 2014 FIFA World Cup. And it's not only important in the world of soccer fans; oh no, this event entertains even those that are not so fanatic to the soccer football. I belong to those who think that soccer is not so funny unless you are playing it, however the FIFA World Cup always turns my attention back to soccer.

This time the great spectacle is heading to the country that brought the "Jogo Bonito" or Beautiful game after 64 years since the "Maracanazo" in 1950. This will be the feast of every passionate fan around the world.; the anxiety and the excitement of this event will brought questions to the fanatic heads like-" What countries will make it to this huge event? ", "Could Spain defend their championship title? ", or "Who will be the best of the world?".

Information was given on May 30-31 by the FIFA Executive Committee who met on Nassau, Bahamas; about the venues for Brazil 2014 hosting. The original list was conformed of 17 candidates; 12 where the chosen cities announced this last Sunday on a press conference. The interest in Brazil is something of huge proportions; making the decision to choose the cities more difficult. For the FIFA; the priority is making Brazil World Cup a sporting success and this was one of the most important decisions to take.

These are the favored cities chosen by the FIFA in alphabetic order:

- Belo Horizonte

- Brasilia

- Cuiaba

- Curitiba

- Fortaleza

- Manaus

- Natal

- Porto Alegre

- Recife

- Rio De Janeiro

- Salvador

- Sao Paulo

Also; Rio de Janeiro will be the host of the IBC (International Broadcast Centre) for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Apparently they will be installed in the Riocentro. The reasons to choose Rio de Janeiro as the Broadcast command center were many; infrastructure quality, accommodation options and the variety of activities available in the city plus the willing support provided by the city for the IBC and its users.

Among the topics that were discussed in the meeting held on Nassau, were included the preparations for the Preliminary Draw for the 2014 World Cup; which will take place at the beautiful city of Marina da Gloria in Rio de Janeiro on 30 July 2011. The FIFA promised that this will be a great event for all guest at the venue and on the TV; - "This Preliminary Draw will break a new record in broadcasting matters" were the comments given by Ricardo Teixeira, president of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF).

Preparations are ready and some are still in program but with the time at their favor, they can guarantee an awesome success. Fans can start rubbing their hands in excitement.

Again, I must say this is soccer of great value; the competition and the emotions this World event evoke can turn the less soccer interested person into a real "Hincha" as hardcore soccer fans are usually called in Latin America. So, are you prepared for Brazil 2014 too?
