The time is over! The World Cup 2014 is started

June 12th, 2014 ... this was the day spiked on the Government's schedule to prepare everything for this big event of FIFA called the World Cup 2014. We still see a few group of workers spread around the city and the arena in order to accomplish the work, but we know we should have many other big things accomplished.

When the FIFA announced in October 30th, 2007 that Brazil would be the host country for the World Cup 2014, the government promised to the nation that we would take the opportunity to adequate the stadiums to FIFA's standard, but more than this, we would have the chance to have better infrastructure in several aspects, not only stadiums (called now as arenas).

With this perspective every Brazilian had been very excited about the chance to finally dream with infrastructure similar to developed countries. However, month by month we could follow up how the government in three spheres (federal, state and municipal) were dealing with the schedule in order to accomplish on time.

The last two or three years until today, Brazilians realized that we wouldn't have what had been promised in 2007, and than movement born in the streets spreading all over the country against the World Cup and the government.

Today with the schedule finalized, although a large part of the initial schedule has been chopped off, ​​the only thing we can do now is to cheer for the Brazilian national team and after that wait until October 2014 to decide in the elections who deserves to "coach" this country.
