FIFA confident ahead of World Cup

After local organizers presented their latest report on the country’s preparations, President Sepp Blatter said FIFA was “confident” the tournament will be successful.

Blatter and FIFA again refused to directly address the equally troubled 2022 World Cup in Qatar, which came into question after a report by the Sunday Times in Britain alleged that Mohammed Bin Hammam, who FIFA expelled in 2012, paid soccer officials millions of dollars to support the nation’s successful campaign.

Brazil promised to finish all 12 stadiums by the end of last year as required by FIFA, but six venues missed that deadline.

Although Brazil had seven years to prepare for the World Cup, it arrives on the eve of the tournament knowing that many of the infrastructure projects promised by the government will not be ready.

FIFA said it received an “unprecedented number” of nearly 11 million ticket requests for the tournament in Brazil.
